پژوهشگر
Aasim Ali is a Researcher at the Norwegian Institute of Marine Research's Department of Contaminants and Biohazard, where he develops advanced analytical methods to study environmental contaminants. His research examines the fate, bioaccumulation, and exposure pathways of legacy and emerging organic pollutants—particularly PFAS, microplastics, and pharmaceuticals—in marine ecosystems. He leads the NFR-funded project 'FEARLESS' (2023-2026) focusing on organofluorine substances in Norwegian seafood chains. His educational background includes: BSc Chemistry from Sudan University of Science and Technology MSc Chemical Oceanography from University of Bergen PhD Marine Chemistry from King Abdulaziz University Postdoctoral fellowship in Organic Analytical Chemistry at Norwegian University of Life Sciences Research specialties encompass: Advanced mass spectrometry techniques (LC-MS/MS, GC-MS/MS) Suspect and non-target screening of unknown contaminants Marine contaminant transfer mechanisms Seafood safety risk assessment Circular economy waste stream analysis At IMR's accredited laboratory, he maintains scientific responsibility for Method 292 (POP detection in seafood) and participates in international proficiency testing. His publication record demonstrates strong focus on Arctic, Red Sea, and Norwegian contamination studies, with recent emphasis on PFAS bioaccumulation and novel pollutant detection methodologies.
