Environmental Nanopollutants

Dr. Javier Jiménez-Lamana (M) received his PhD from the University of Zaragoza in 2014. Since 2015 he has been working at the University of Pau and Pays de l’Adour (UPPA) in Pau, France. His main research interest has been focused on the analysis of pollutants at the nanoscale in the environment. He has developed analytical methodologies based on Single Particle ICP-MS to study engineered nanoparticles in different environmental and biological matrices. Currently, he is adapting the SP-ICP-MS methodology to the detection and quantification of nanoplastics and their potential role as carriers of heavy metals. Professor Joanna Szpunar (F) graduated from the Warsaw University of Technology (Poland), received her PhD and DSc (habilitation) degrees from the University of Warsaw, and the professor title from the president of the Republic of Poland. Since 1997 she has been working at the French National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS) in Pau, France. Her research interests concern bioinorganic speciation and nanoparticle analysis and hyphenated techniques for metallomics. Joanna Szpunar authored or co-authored a book and more than 175 articles in peer reviewed  journals. She gave more than 50 plenary and invited lectures at international conferences. She is fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry and member of the Advisory Boards of Journal of Analytical Atomic Spectrometry, Metallomics and Separations. She is the laureate of the 2017 European Plasma Spectrochemistry Award.
