His research focuses broadly on environmental contaminants in Arctic and permafrost regions, data-driven approaches to environmental and chemical processes, and the biological effects of pollutants. He has authored or co-authored more than 30 peer-reviewed publications, including over 10 papers in leading journals such as Environmental Science & Technology, Water Research, and Journal of Hazardous Materials. He has also collaborated with the Canadian Light Source for over five years on synchrotron-based environmental research. Academic Achievement Content 1. Over 24 peer-reviewed international journal publications, including 8 first (co-first) authors; 8 papers published in the top journals in the field (8 of 22), such as Environ. Sci. Technol., Water Res., J. Hazard. Mater., and Appl. Environ. Microbiol. 2. Over 12 presentations at international conferences. Profound teaching experience for undergraduate and graduate courses (CEQ rating: 4.5\/5.0) and extensive HQP (over 10 HQP) training experience in environmental science and engineering 3. Participation in over 10 multiple levels (international, national, provincial, and industrial) projects (e.g., UNDP, MPRI, NSERC; over $5 million), and over 25 proposal writings (successful grants: over $3 million) 4.
