George C. Caceres

George is a doctoral candidate in his 4th year at the University of Maryland working in the Sang Bok Lee research group. In collaboration with the National Institute of Standards and Technology, George is working on the development of single particle inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (spICP-MS) for the measurement of microplastic particles. George aims to establish alternative analysis methods via this technique in order to expand current measurement limitations of spICP-MS and offer solutions for the present gaps of knowledge with respect to the analysis of microplastic particles.
