The thesis "New developments to refine target, suspect and non-target screening strategies for comprehensive monitoring of the aquatic environment" by Dr. Alberto Celma from the Universitat Jaume I, carried out at the University Institute of Pesticides and Water Resources, has been awarded by the Spanish Society of Chromatography and Related Techniques (SECyTA) as the best doctoral thesis of the year 2021.

This national award recognises the high quality of the work carried out to obtain a doctoral degree and which, at the same time, provides significant improvements in the field of chromatography and related techniques in any of its applications. The awards for the last two years were presented at the 21st scientific meeting of the Society held in Almeria last week.

Dr. Alberto Celma has carried out his doctoral thesis at the University Institute of Pesticides and Water Resources (IUPA) at the UJI, under the supervision of doctors Juan Vicente Sancho and Lubertus Bijlsma. In his research work, Celma has developed new tools to improve target and non-target screening strategies for organic micropollutants in environmental samples, as well as new criteria for their identification using state-of-the-art techniques.

The researcher has also carried out a predoctoral stay at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (Uppsala, Sweden), where he has expanded his research by incorporating bioanalytical techniques.

The University Institute of Pesticides and Water Resources develops its research work mainly in the fields of public health and the environment. Currently, is it focused on projects towards the application of wastewater-based epidemiology for the estimation of illicit drug consumption as well as antibiotic utilization and their potential associated antimicrobial resistance in the aquatic environment.

Also noteworthy is the research on metabolomic applications in various fields, such as nutrition and health, as well as the work focused on the environmental impact of emerging pollutants. The IUPA also hosts the work team Prometeo, recognised as a group of excellence of the Valencian Community and led by Professor Félix Hernández, which is developing the project "Analytical chemistry and public health. Contributions of high-resolution mass spectrometry".
