New work on pharmaceutical degradation in coastal sediments

See this nice work by Tetyana Gilevska, exploring how anoxic sediment microbiomes break down naproxen, a widely used painkiller, in coastal areas impacted by wastewater discharge.

This study is a great example of how microbial communities at the land–sea interface can help mitigate the footprint of pharmaceutical pollution in coastal environments.

🇸🇪 🇩🇰 Tetyana was a Marie Skłodowska-Curie secondment fellow in our lab from the University of Gothenburg. It was a pleasure collaborating with her, Stefano Bonaglia, and the rest of the team.

We look forward to seeing what comes next from Tetyana’s outstanding work as a Marie Curie fellow.
