A PhD student with the Molecular Toxicology research group at the Department of Biomedical Sciences and Veterinary Public Health
Presentation
My research focuses on the use of bioanalytical methods as a tool to monitor drinking water safety and to better understand the toxicological profile of drinking water at the molecular level. Specifically, I use in vitro effect-based assays to study the presence of bioactive chemicals in drinking water and evaluate modern treatment techniques designed to remove chemicals hazards from the water.
