Prof. Dr. Viktoria Muller

Lecture topics: "Speciation Of Pfas In Environmental Systems: The Known, The Unknown, And The Environment In Between"

Dr. Viktoria Müller is an environmental chemist specializing in the analysis, fate, and transport of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in atmospheric and biological matrices. She holds a PhD in Chemistry from the University of Graz and currently works as a postdoctoral researcher and Honorary Associate at the James Hutton Institute in the UK. Her research uses mostly high-resolution mass spectrometry and combustion ion chromatography to investigate PFAS contamination in atmospheric deposition, wildlife, and pollinators. Through her interdisciplinary and collaborative work, her work advances understanding of PFAS mass balance, exposure pathways, and their implications for environmental regulation
