Title: Introduction to PFAS in Agricultural Systems
In the 2025 spring semester, SAFES will host a series of talks to highlight Penn State's ongoing PFAS research/extension efforts and analytical lab capacity.
The talks will enable faculty across the university to engage with each other on the latest PFAS-related science and policy topics, including PFAS fate and transport in agroecosystems, toxicology and risks to human health from PFAS, and the potential for growing hemp as PFAS phytoremediation strategy. We hope to grow the community of PFAS researchers at Penn State and see many interdisciplinary partnerships emerge from these conversations.
