U of T Engineering alumni, join us for this monthly series.
Did you know that the Drinking Water Research Group (DWRG) at the University of Toronto has received funding from Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC), as well as the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC) to investigate microplastics in Canadian drinking water? Efforts by the DWRG over the past three years have led to the development and subsequent refinement of advanced microplastic sampling and analysis techniques, allowing us to focus on the different health impact related issues.
But what exactly are Microplastics and why are they referred to as a “triple threat”?
U of T Engineering alumni, join us for this monthly series.
Join fellow graduates to learn about exciting research in diverse subjects from U of T Engineering professors.
This month’s speaker will be Professor Eric Diller (MIE) speaking on:
Micro-Scale Surgery: Using Magnetic Fields to Control Tiny Robots in the Gut and Brain
