	University of Maine	Academia	1865	Environment
Hi we’re University of Maine! University of Maine (UMaine) is a public land?grant research university located in Orono, Maine, known for its strong programs in environmental science, agriculture and engineering. UMaine is actively engaged in research through initiatives such as its “PFAS+ Initiative,” which coordinates engineering, ecological, social?science and agricultural work to address PFAS contamination. The university has received significant funding (e.g., a $2.25?million grant from the Maine Department of Agriculture to support field?based PFAS research on farms) to help understand PFAS in soil, crops, animals and food systems. UMaine researchers have developed novel models predicting PFAS absorption by microplastics and are studying PFAS uptake in agricultural soils and livestock to help impacted farmers in Maine
	P2i	Industry Player	2004	Coating
