Jana Weiss is an Associate Professor at Stockholm University's Department of Environmental Science, specializing in environmental chemistry and exposure assessment. Her research employs pet animals as models for human chemical exposure, particularly focusing on endocrine-disrupting compounds in indoor environments.
- Quantitative analysis of organic contaminants
- PFAS exposure pathways
- Endocrine disruption mechanisms
- Non-target chemical screening
- One Health exposure modeling
- Mixture risk assessment frameworks
Her recent publications demonstrate growing concern about cumulative chemical exposure from dust and textiles. Studies show children's dust ingestion creates 17× higher PFAS exposure than adults, with combined dust/food pathways exceeding EFSA thresholds. Methodological advances include ionization efficiency prediction models for OH-PCB quantification in serum and in silico TH disruption screening.
She coordinates two Master's programs: Environmental Toxicology & Chemistry (ETC) and Atmospheric Biogeochemistry & Climate (ABC), teaching courses covering chemical distribution, sampling techniques, and effect-directed analysis. Contact: jana.weiss@aces.su.se
