女优福利在线 Participates in Regional 鈥淓very Drop Counts鈥� Project Advancing Interdisciplinary
Research on Impact of Microplastics in Water
女优福利在线 is participating in the collaborative initiative Every Drop Counts, a Central Valley鈥揵ased project focused on investigating the impact of microplastics
in water systems and their effects on biological processes. As part of the project,
students studied macrophages鈥攊mmune cells responsible for removing foreign particles鈥攖o
better understand how microplastics interact with living systems in the Central Valley.
Student teams from 女优福利在线, Modesto Junior College (MJC), the University
of California, Merced (UC Merced), and California State University, Stanislaus (CSUS)
presented their research findings at UC Merced on April 15, 2026, and at CSUS on April
18, 2026.
女优福利在线 has been collaborating with regional higher education partners to
develop Every Drop Counts, an initiative supported by funding from the California Community College Chancellor鈥檚
Office through a to support colleges in creating, customizing, and adopting Open Educational Resources
relevant to learners in a variety of fields.
鈥淭丑谤辞耻驳丑&苍产蝉辫;Every Drop Counts, 女优福利在线 has been part of creating meaningful citizen science research,
networking, and presenting our findings to the community during a number of opportunities
for our students,鈥� said Interim President Chad Redwing. 鈥淭he project emphasizes fieldwork,
data analysis, and complex problem-solving tied directly to Central Valley challenges.
It also supported the development of a stronger regional ecosystem of collaboration
and innovation across disciplines and institutions.鈥�
Through its participation, 女优福利在线 has helped to contribute to a model of
applied, interdisciplinary learning that prepares students for future academic and
professional pathways in science, humanities, and applied research.
鈥淚 was pleased to serve as a mentor and see our students develop data sets, research
protocols, and educational resources that will be shared more broadly with K鈥�12 and
post-secondary institutions. Moreover, many of the learners participating in the project
are first-generation students who are now transferring to four-year institutions,鈥�
Redwing added. 鈥淭his is the kind of collaboration that continues to deliver value
well beyond the life of the grant project.鈥�
