Microplastics in the Brain? | Beyond Plastics

November 7, 2024 , 7:00 pm

Join Beyond Plastics for a webinar on Thursday, Nov 7 at 7 pm ET/4 pm PT. We’ll hear from Dr. Matt Campen, who led a research team that found shockingly high levels of nano and microplastics in the brain—especially in people who had died of dementia. The paper on their findings is currently in preprint.

A toxicologist and professor of pharmaceutical sciences at the University of New Mexico, Matt directs the New Mexico Center for Metals in Biology and Medicine. He has authored over 100 peer-reviewed publications, largely in the area of the cardiovascular health effects of inhaled pollutants.
