Alex Mary at Soapbox Science 2024: Revolutionising adhesives with industrial waste!
On 16 June, at the Soapbox Science event organised by Quebec City 2024, Alex Mary had the opportunity to present her doctoral thesis entitled “Development of bio-based adhesives for engineered wood products”. She detailed how she uses Quebec industrial waste in her formulations to reduce the use of petrochemical components, thus contributing to a more sustainable and environmentally-friendly approach.
Soapbox Science aims to raise public awareness while highlighting women scientists and their research. This event is essential for promoting equity, diversity and inclusion in science and society in general. Alex Mary’s participation not only highlighted her innovative work, but also inspired many attendees to consider careers in science and engineering.
