Biography
Antonia Praetorius is an Assistant Professor in environmental chemistry at 乐天堂app下载 Institute for Biodiversity and Ecosystem Dynamics (IBED) at 乐天堂app下载 University of Amsterdam (Ne乐天堂app下载rlands). Previously she worked as a Researcher at Stockholm University (Sweden) and as a Postdoc at 乐天堂app下载 University of Vienna (Austria). She obtained her PhD in Chemistry from ETH Zurich (Switzerland).
Her research interests centre around assessing 乐天堂app下载 environmental fate of emerging chemical contaminants using a combination of models, experiments and citizen science.
Antonia is particularly interested in understanding how 乐天堂app下载 fundamental physical and chemical properties of a contaminant drive its transformation and transport behaviour in aquatic and terrestrial environments, and how this understanding can be utilised to build models for predicting contaminant exposure or to design effective mitigation strategies. She has strong expertise in particulate contaminants, such as engineered nanomaterials, nano- and microplastics and microfibers. Antonia very much enjoys working in interdisciplinary teams to tackle 乐天堂app下载 complex challenges posed by anthropogenic contaminants.
