Abstract

Anna Paltseva, PhD, is an urban soil scientist committed to improving soil health in city environments through research and community collaboration. Her work in New York City and Lafayette, Louisiana, demonstrates the power of participatory science to address urban soil contamination and promote environmental justice. Now, at Purdue University, Anna aims to expand these efforts, using tools like her Urban Soil Guide and X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analyzer to empower communities, increase awareness, and build resilient urban soil practices. This Backstory emphasizes the need for accessible, community-driven approaches to manage soil contamination in diverse urban settings.

行动中的参与式科学：改变城市土壤研究

Anna Paltseva博士是一位城市土壤科学家，致力于通过研究和社区合作改善城市环境中的土壤健康。她在纽约市和路易斯安那州拉斐特的工作展示了参与式科学在解决城市土壤污染和促进环境正义方面的力量。现在，在普渡大学，安娜的目标是扩大这些努力，使用她的城市土壤指南和x射线荧光（XRF）分析仪等工具来赋予社区权力，提高认识，并建立有弹性的城市土壤实践。本背景故事强调了在不同的城市环境中需要采用可获取的、社区驱动的方法来管理土壤污染。

期刊介绍： Science has many big remaining questions. To address them, we will need to work collaboratively and across disciplines. The goal of iScience is to help fuel that type of interdisciplinary thinking. iScience is a new open-access journal from Cell Press that provides a platform for original research in the life, physical, and earth sciences. The primary criterion for publication in iScience is a significant contribution to a relevant field combined with robust results and underlying methodology. The advances appearing in iScience include both fundamental and applied investigations across this interdisciplinary range of topic areas. To support transparency in scientific investigation, we are happy to consider replication studies and papers that describe negative results. We know you want your work to be published quickly and to be widely visible within your community and beyond. With the strong international reputation of Cell Press behind it, publication in iScience will help your work garner the attention and recognition it merits. Like all Cell Press journals, iScience prioritizes rapid publication. Our editorial team pays special attention to high-quality author service and to efficient, clear-cut decisions based on the information available within the manuscript. iScience taps into the expertise across Cell Press journals and selected partners to inform our editorial decisions and help publish your science in a timely and seamless way.
