Hanna Siemaszko Season 2 Episode 18

This time we talked to Associate Professor Dr. Emma Schymanski about her work in the Environmental Cheminformatics group at LCSB (University of Luxembourg). She told us how her work is similar to a detective, she described in more detail non-targeted analysis of unknown chemicals, different databases she uses for her work and the vast and important subject of open science. She has also prepared a very special pub quiz question regarding PFAS chemicals.
