Focus: Environmental pollution in Brooklyn’s Gowanus Canal, focusing on remediation and developing a biosensor for detecting contamination.
My work on the Gowanus Canal project with Elizabeth Hénaff’s lab focused on environmental restoration and addressing environmental justice. I contributed to bioremediation and biosensing research, aiming to raise awareness of pollution’s impact on marginalized communities.
This project represents the fight for environmental justice in a community harmed by decades of pollution. My involvement emphasized the importance of government action, community engagement, and collaboration with nonprofits. Science-guided strategies strengthen my commitment to evidence-based solutions.
