So much impactful toxicological work going on! Being a volunteer meant I could aid all the hard work of SETAC staff. Getting to know and spend time with volunteers, SETAC staff, and ECORISC students during the week made my time even more special17 May 2025 08:35 +0000at://did:plc:atmisbj2d4e2ke3xyu7uzw26/app.bsky.feed.post/3lpe55rxats27https://bsky.app/profile/matt-cato.bsky.social/post/3ln6d6bhdo22gGreat week with the @fieldstudiesc.bsky.social team at Dale Fort supporting their Marine Science Camp. Students spent time learning about seabirds, rockpools, plankton and even let me ramble on about coral reefs. Thank you @thembauk.bsky.social for giving me this opportunity. Anemones are so cool!19 Apr 2025 14:16 +0000at://did:plc:atmisbj2d4e2ke3xyu7uzw26/app.bsky.feed.post/3ln6d6bhdo22ghttps://bsky.app/profile/matt-cato.bsky.social/post/3llefg3knss2hIn June my CDT will be running a conference in Birmingham tailored for ecotoxicologists. We’ll be showcasing our research projects as well as generating discussions surrounding the environmental risk of chemicals in the environment.
