This fellowship will fund Dr. Pincus’ research "EAR-PF: Microplastics and Nanoplastics as Vectors for Inorganic Pollution: Examining the Effect of Environmental Systems Conditions on Degradation Pathway and Sorption Potential.” Lauren will conduct her independent research under the mentorship of Professor Satish Myneni and the Molecular Environmental Geochemistry Group.
Dr. Pincus is currently a Harry H. Hess Postdoctoral Fellow in the Princeton Geosciences Department with the Myneni Group. Lauren’s research interests lie at the intersection of geoscience, chemistry, and environmental engineering. She uses fundamental knowledge from these three subject areas to solve complex interdisciplinary problems. The department would like to take this time to congratulate Dr. Pincus at this time of prestigious recognition for her research.
