Analyzing and Accounting for Uncertainty in Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship (QSAR) Prediction of Chemical Toxicity (see PhD thesis)
RES Graduate Program, UBC
2020-2024
Jerry, a sessional lecturer at the department of EOAS at UBC, holds a BSc. in Environmental Science from Kenyatta University, a MSc. in Environmental Engineering from Korea University and a PhD from IRES at UBC. During his master’s study, he was broadly involved in research related to emerging organic micropollutants in freshwater systems: occurrence, toxicity, toxicokinetic effect estimation, and degradation. Jerry has always been passionate about research entwining toxic chemicals, human health, alternatives to animal testing approaches (e.g., computation in silico toxicology methods), and chemical regulation, so it was an easy decision to progress to pursue his Ph.D. about uncertainty in chemical toxicity-assessments.

Master’s degree in Science, Business, and Innovation
Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam
2024
With an undergraduate degree in Biotechnology from Polytechnic University of Madrid, Sofía is currently pursuing a master’s degree in Science, Business, and Innovation at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. Passionate about Science and Environmental Policy, Sofía is enthusiastic about undertaking her master’s thesis project at the Egesta Lab under the supervision of Gunilla Öberg. This project focuses on developing a Conflicts of Interest Policy for the prospective United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on the management of chemicals and waste and the prevention of pollution. She is an advocate for the belief that politics, dialogue, and knowledge are the drivers towards a healthier Planet and society.
