Research Interest
My research is focused on the study of chemical processes in the interface between biota and their surrounding environment, within fields such as food safety, the origin and dispersion of environmental pollutants, human exposure associated health hazards, ecotoxicology (fate and transport of contaminants), as well as the use of model animals (zebrafish) to elucidate the toxicological implications of environmental insults.
