The activity consists of a talk, given by Dr. Ana de Santiago Martín, researcher from the Soil and Water Quality group. The talk is about how the contaminants present in the wastewater leaving our homes could reach the environment and, through surface water, end up in the food we consume. Some results from the FatePharM and Nat4Health projects, funded by MCIN/ AEI /10.13039/501100011033, will be reported. After the talk, the students will simulate a journalistic context and interview the researcher about her activity at IMDEA Water within the framework of the school's project "Invisible Professions"
