I am currently a joint Ph.D. student affiliated with the ECOSPHERE research group at the University of Antwerp and the Laboratory of Environmental Toxicology and Aquatic Ecology (GhenTox) at Ghent University. My research project aims to mechanistically evaluate the bioavailability and toxicity of micro-and-nanoplastic particles (MPs/NPs) in key aquatic organisms. The project focuses on gaining insights into the biological reactivity of MPs and NPs under environmentally realistic exposure conditions through the in-vitro characterization of sensitive biological endpoints.
