Website Update & Microplastics Learning Series

September 2024

A team of project volunteers has created 2 new learning pages on our website: (1) a set of learning articles and (2) a chat page so that people can ask related questions and the custom AI-based chatbot will answer them. There is also a section for the most commonly asked questions. The system will continue to evolve and learn as it is used. As part of the learning series, Kerry Burns, a University of Maryland graduate student at the Horn Point Laboratory, is creating a series of articles on microplastics and their interaction with the environmental ecosystem.
