About
Dr. Pawel Rostkowski is a Senior Scientist in the Department of Environmental Chemistry and Health Effects at NILU (Norway). He specializes in environmental analytical chemistry, focusing on identifying and characterizing emerging contaminants, particularly through non-target and suspect screening methods using high-resolution mass spectrometry.
Throughout his career, Rostkowski has developed innovative methods for detecting organic contaminants across various environmental matrices, products, and food contact materials.
In addition to his research, he plays an active role in various international scientific and regulatory organizations. He is a member of the Steering Committee for the NORMAN Association, which addresses emerging pollutants in Europe, and represents Norway in the European Environment Information and Observation Network (EIONET) Chemicals Expert Group.
He is also involved in BP4NTA (Benchmarking and Prioritization of Non-Target Analysis), an initiative focused on advancing non-target analytical techniques and establishing best practices for prioritizing unknown environmental contaminants. Furthermore, Rostkowski contributes as an expert in the ISO technical committee ISO/TC 147/SC 2/WG 85, dedicated to developing standards for non-target screening and enhancing methods for environmental monitoring and chemical risk assessment.
