Fabia Battistuzzi, Oakland University Plastic pollution threatens both the global environment and individual human health. Since its introduction to the market, plastic has become ubiquitous in daily life, but at what cost? Our oceans are contaminated with plastic, and we are finding alarming levels of microplastics in people all over the world. Come to Next for an in-depth scientific lecture by Dr. Fabia Battistuzzi that will cover her research on a potential solution to the “plastic problem”. Specifically, Dr. Battistuzzi, a favorite lecturer at Next, will discuss the potential for bacteria to play a role in plastic consumption. She will discuss where the science currently stands, what the possibilities are, and the importance of this cutting-edge research. Generously sponsored by Bank of Ann Arbor
