Short biography
I am ICREA Research Professor since 2005. I obtained PhD in Chemistry from the Faculty of Chemical Engineering and Technology at the University of Zagreb, Croatia, in 1995. From 1999 to 2011, I was a research scientist at the Institute for Environmental Assessment and Water Studies (IDAEA-CSIC), Barcelona. Since July 2011, I work as a senior researcher at the Catalan Institute for Water Research (ICRA) in Girona, Spain. At ICRA, I lead the Water Quality and Safety Area and am responsible for the research line focusing on contaminants in water treatment processes. I have published over 280 research papers and 30 book chapters, having edited 8 books. Currently, my H-index stands at 84, with more than 21,000 citations. I was included in the ISI Highly Cited in the fields of Chemistry and Environment/Ecology and ranked in the top 1% by citations in 2018 in the field of Environment/Ecology and in 2019 in the cross-field by Clarivate Analytics.
