Ryan Shiels

Dr. Ryan Shiels is a researcher affiliated with the Queensland Alliance for Environmental Health Sciences (QAEHS) at the University of Queensland. His expertise lies in analytical chemistry and environmental health, with a focus on LC-MS/MS and VBA code development for large datasets. He previously worked at Griffith University on bilirubin-related pharmacokinetic studies.

• Bachelor of Health Science (Hons) from Griffith University (2013)

Ryan's research bridges biochemical analysis of biological pigments and environmental health surveillance of pollutants like PFAS and antimicrobials. His work involves method development, pharmacokinetics, and wastewater epidemiology.

The 15 most recent articles reflect dual research themes: biochemical pharmacology (bilirubin derivatives, inflammation, rat models) and environmental monitoring (PFAS, pesticides, antimicrobial residues using passive sampling and LC-MS/MS). Key keywords include Pharmacology, Environmental Science, and Analytical Chemistry.
