Yesterday I was extremely honored to receive the Doctor Honoris Causa in Protection of Aquatic Ecosystems from the University of South Bohemia in České Budějovice.

Grateful to recently give a lecture as part of a 24 hr global symposium to celebrate 1 Year of the Stockholm Declaration on Chemistry for the Future. If you have not yet read the Stockholm Declaration on Chemistry for the Future, I highly recommend doing so: www.stockholm-declaration.org.

A fantastic week of science at the Society of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry (SETAC) Europe meeting in Maastricht, as we connected again with many collaborators and other colleagues from around the world. It was an enriching experience for our Baylor team members.
