Current Research Project
EU funded Horizon 2020 project "PlasticHeal"
PLASTICHEAL aims at developing innovative tools to study the impact and mode of action of micro and nanoplastics on human health. PLASTICHEAL has received nearly 6 million euros of from the European Commission, is coordinated by the Autonomous University of Barcelona and has the participation of 10 universities and research centres from 7 EU countries.
PLASTICHEAL, together with AURORA , IMPTOX, PlasticsFatE , and POLYRISK, is one of the five European main research projects currently working to understand micro- and nanoplastics (MNPLs) in our environment and their exposures and impacts on health. To optimise synergies, the five projects have formed the European Research Cluster to Understand the Health Impacts of Micro- and Nanoplastic (CUSP).
Our role in PlasticHeal
WP1: Environmental monitoring and external human exposure
WP2: Human Biomonitoring
WP3: Impact on biological barriers
WP1 Leader: UFZ
Objective: Determination and characterization of external human exposure with MNPLs.
