Assistant Professor of Earth and Environmental Sciences Tyler Frankel was invited to provide the opening plenary talk at the FMC Corporation R&D Expo in June 2023. Held at the Delaware Stine Research Facility, this two-day event gathered FMC scientists from around the world to learn about the latest innovations, share ideas and celebrate the company’s achievements. Frankel’s talk, titled “Developing and Applying Sensitive Methods To Assess Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals,” provided an overview of his ecotoxicology program over the last decade and highlighted the exciting research and collaborations currently being conducted alongside undergraduates at the University of Mary Washington. Dr. Frankel is also a recipient of the 2022 FMC New Investigator Award, which provides $50,000 in funds to support his research program.
