Clean Waters, Bright Futures: Uniting for PFAS Solutions
PFAS: a persistent challenge, a silent threat to health, and a wake-up call to protect future generations.
Welcome to the PFAS Research Spotlights Project!
Our mission is to raise PFAS awareness, promote scientific excellence, and contribute to a safer, healthier world, by amplifying the voices of scientists, community leaders and advocates who are working to understand, mitigate, and develop sustainable PFAS solutions.
PFAS or per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances are harmful human-made chemicals that emerged in the mid-20th century as a revolutionary chemical innovation due to their water and oil resistance. As these synthetic chemicals find their way into our water bodies, soil, and even the food chain, they present significant health and environmental concerns, prompting global efforts for remediation and regulation. Amidst these challenges, there is hope and inspiration arising from the efforts of researchers worldwide.
What are PFAS?
Together, changing the world is possible.
We aim to highlight cutting-edge studies, innovative technologies, and transformative projects that hold promise in addressing PFAS-related challenges. By sharing these research spotlights, we seek to inspire collaboration, knowledge exchange, and collective action in the fight against PFAS. At PFAS Research Spotlights, we believe in the power of information dissemination to create a positive impact. By shining a light on the work of talented scientists, scholars, and innovators, we hope to foster a global community committed to tackling the PFAS issue in a unified and informed manner.
