Transformation of Organic Micropollutants
Our research focuses on understanding the fate of organic contaminants in aquatic environments. We examine how the transformation processes of priority organic contaminants affect ecosystems and human health. We characterize the mechanisms of phototransformation and biodegradation in surface water. Our approach combines laboratory experiments, field studies, and toxicological assessments to develop strategies for preserving water reservoirs for drinking and agricultural use.

Our Approach
Advancing environmental chemistry research for a sustainable future
Our approach combines laboratory experiments, field studies, and toxicological assessments to develop strategies for preserving water reservoirs.
Join Our Lab →Laboratory Experiments
We characterize the mechanisms of phototransformation and biodegradation in surface water using simulated laboratory experiments with UVA-visible wavelength light sources.
Field Studies
We deploy passive samplers in lakes and rivers, evaluating contaminant profiles and concentrations over space and time to monitor transformation processes in real environments.
Toxicological Assessments
Our approach combines environmental chemistry, ecotoxicology, and machine learning to develop strategies for preserving water reservoirs for drinking and agricultural use.

I attended the Gordon Research Conference on Environmental Science: Water this week and had a great experience.
It was a valuable opportunity to network with researchers in the field, learn about the latest advances in environmental science, and showcase our research. I'm grateful for the insightful discussions, new connections, and inspiring work shared throughout the conference. The excellent food made the celebration of science even more enjoyable.
