The team at Vireo shares how we are celebrating Earth Day this year, with contributions from the team: Jo Anne Shatkin, James Ede, Kimberly Ong, Megan Roberts, Shaun Clancy, Jerry Liu, Ana Diges, Patricia Hodgkinson, and Leslie Hockman.

Vireo Advisors is a proud contributor to the newly published “Fluorescently Labeled Cellulose Nanofibers for Environmental Health and Safety Studies”.

With increased regulatory pressure to reduce the use of “forever chemicals” such as per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAs) in food packaging, researchers from the University of Pittsburgh and the University at Buffalo are looking to nanotechnology to break down PFAS into smaller pieces which microbes can then digest.

Author Jess Wade has published a picture book called Nano which introduces children to the cutting-edge area of STEM that is nanotechnology.

Vireo, and our co-authors at Baylor University, have published a study advancing the use of alternative testing strategies for nanomaterial safety assessments.
