“Yes – the Baltic Sea is sick. But painkillers “Yes – the Baltic Sea is sick. But painkillers won’t heal it,” says Sergej Suzdalev, senior researcher at @klaipedauniversity Marine Research Institute. 🐟🧫 We’ve all heard of microplastics in our seas by now, but research shows we have much more coming. Sergej is focusing on one such issue – invisible pollution caused by the residue of painkillers. Used for everything from minor headaches to chronic pain, painkillers leave a trace not just in seawater but also in the fish that feed the local communities. What if we could create change, together❓ Learn more on the “news” section of our website 👆 #euconexus #europeanuniversities #painkillers #sea #marineresearch #research #science #microplastics
