The scientific advances of the Plastics, Environment and Health Research Group in drawings! During the annual conference of the Plastics, Environment and Health Research Group (GDR PES) 2024 in Marseille, an artistic collaboration was initiated with author Capucine Dupuy to highlight the research carried out by members of the network in the form of 12 illustrated fact sheets. To carry out this outreach work, Capucine met and discussed with many scientists during the conference and worked closely with the GDR’s scientific advisory board to identify and understand the priority issues and some of the major scientific advances. Illustrations were then produced with the artist Bobika, resulting in the first series of drawings on the scientific advances of the Plastics, Environment and Health Research Group!

This series is available in French and English.

While these fact sheets are not intended to be exhaustive and reflect only a small part of the work carried out at national level on the subject of plastic pollution, they are designed to be distributed as widely as possible throughout society and used as a tool to disseminate current knowledge and improve understanding of the issues related to plastic pollution, in an illustrated and humorous format!
