GCC affiliate Dr. Austin Gray is featured in Virginia Tech News for his research on microplastics and their impacts on wildlife and human health, including suspected microplastics in dolphin breath, and his commitment to mentoring the next generation of scientists.
The why: Austin Gray is on a quest to decode microplastics
Gray’s humble beginning in research feeds into a constant curiosity that he hopes can lead to a better understanding of microplastics and their impact on human health — from pollution to solution.

Eh, the loss of wildlife driven by human population pressure is real. But we don't have a good fix for it apart from setting up national parks, reducing our impact on the environment, etc.

The Javan Leopard of Indonesia is classified as endangered by the IUCN Red List due to habitat loss, human-wildlife conflict, and illegal parts trade. It is the last remaining apex predator in Java, so the need for protection and consequences of extinction are dire.
