Cassandra Rauert
Senior Research Fellow at the Queensland Alliance for Environmental Health Sciences (QAEHS) at the University of Queensland, Australia
Dr Cassandra Rauert is an established environmental health scientist, with a career divided between working within government and academia. She is currently a Senior Research Fellow at the Queensland Alliance for Environmental Health Sciences (QAEHS) at the University of Queensland, Australia. Her research focusses on developing new methods for monitoring human and environmental exposure to microplastics with a special focus on tyre wear and their associated chemicals. She has published the first Australian environmental data on these pollutants and works closely with local governments to understand the fate and transport of both tyre wear and the associated chemicals within an Australian context.
