At #ANSES (French Agency for Food, Environmental and Occupational Health & Safety) in Paris, Ellise Suffill presented her #ZeroPM work on integrating social data into the Essential Use Concept, followed by a roundtable on whether the consumer is always right and how to enable sustainable design. ♻️
♻️ Project Spotlight: ZeroPM
The goal of the pathfinding Horizon Europe #ZeroPM project is to protect our water from contamination with #persistent #mobile substances. An evidence-based multilevel framework including #prevention, #prioritization and #removal approaches is used to lead chemical strategy.
🏛️ Uni Vienna Team: Sabine Pahl, Mathew White & Ellise Suffill, with support from Louisa Richter and Hélène Zillig.
⌛ Duration: 2021–2026

Ellise joined the Vienna EnvPsy Team in November 2021 as a post-doc and part of the #ZeroPM project. ♻️
Since then, she has been involved at the intersection between academia and policymaking and working towards reducing the consumption and pollution of persistent and mobile chemicals across the EU.
May the Fourth be with you! It is a big day for #ZeroPM at #SETACDublin today. We will have a session, several presentations and posters on #PFAS, #PMTs transformation products and #chemical stripes! We will post are materials after the conference!
Where to find us :-)
