Alhamdulillah.

#PFAS turns up in drinking water across the US and beyond, and exposure is linked to harmful health effects. Read about next-generation water treatment strategies in Kerri Jansen 's cover story: ow.ly/DmrV30ob2ri #PFOA #water #waternews

1. See failure as a beginning. 2. Never stop learning. 3. Assume nothing, question everything. 4. Teach others what you know. 5. Analyze objectively. 6. Practice humility. 7. Respect constructive criticism. 8. Take initiative. 9. Give credit where it's due. 10. Love what you do.

This month's ACS Nano includes a tutorial on powder XRD for nanomaterials. It doesn't substitute for a comprehensive text, but we hope it will be helpful to those who are new to XRD or are less familiar with some key aspects of it. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Mini-thread on writing literature reviews and having them as assignments. I am bewildered by the lack of guidance on "how to conduct a literature review" all over the place. And yes, I've read books that are specifically on the literature review. I think this stems from...

Do nanoparticle-based antifouling paints offer any clear advantages over non-nano coatings? That was the main question of this collaborative study (led by Bob Miller) conducted at three harbors on the California coast. link.springer.com/article/10.100…

Nice to end the week with the publication of one of the most important #PFAS papers of the year. Here Gluege et al, provide a comprehensive overview of >200 uses for 1400 individual PFAS. A good basis for determining if these uses are #essential or not. pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

Congrats to Alayo, a PhD student in my group CEE@UCI for winning one of this year's Henry Samueli Endowed Fellowships: engineering.uci.edu/dept/cee/gradu…

Congrats to Ziwei Ziwei Han, for leading our lab's new publication, Immobilization of arsenic in soil by nanoscale zerovalent iron: Role of sulfidation and application of machine learning. Co-authored by Alayo, Jenny Zenobio, and Yixin Zhao. doi.org/10.1039/D0EN01…

Alayo Jenny Zenobio

Honored, and thankful to my incredible lab members, Ziwei Han Alayo Jenny Zenobio.

Honored to join the group of UCI Hellman Fellows.

Our group's review, "Abundance, fate, and effects of pharmaceuticals and personal care products in aquatic environments", is now out in Journal of Hazardous Materials |Letters |Advances. sciencedirect.com/science/articl… Kudos to Jie, Yixin, Alicia, Jenny Zenobio, Yian, Ziwei Han, Alayo, and Yurong!

Congrats to Bayo Alayo on presenting his work on interactions of #PFAS and #microplastics at #ACSSpring2022

Our group will be presenting at the AEESP2022_WashU conference. If you are interested in the environmental implications of #PFAS, and application of #nanotechnology, then check out these posters/talk by Ziwei Han Alayo Naomi Senehi

Congrats to EC&T Lab's Bayo, Ziwei, and Naomi on their presentations at the AEESP2022_WashU conference. Alayo Ziwei Han Naomi Senehi CEE@UCI UCI Engineering Go team!

Congratulations to Alayo for receiving one of the 2023 Graduate Student Awards by the American Chemical Society's Environmental Chemistry Division. UCI Engineering CEE@UCI .

#PFAS occur in the environment as mixtures. In this study just published in Journal of Hazardous Materials |Letters |Advances, we used a spectroscopic (FTIR) and a spectrometric (MS) tool to investigate the contributions of PFOA and PFOS to the effects of a PFOS + PFOA mixture. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Today, we sent off Dr. Alayo and Naomi Senehi who are both transitioning from the lab. Good luck with the next, peeps! Ziwei Han

PFAS and microplastics are important environmental contaminants. In this study, led by Alayo and published in Journal of Hazardous Materials |Letters |Advances, we studied interactions between secondary microplastics and PFAS. doi.org/10.1016/j.jhaz… Nice to collaborate with @chrisolivare.
