Rate My Professor Joachim Sturve

Sturve is actively engaged in international collaborations through working groups including the ICES Working Group on Biological Effects of Contaminants (WGBEC), OSPAR Monitoring and on Impacts in the Marine Environment (MIME), the HELCOM biological effects group, and the ICES/HELCOM Study Group on developing new guidelines for the monitoring of biological effects of contaminants (SGEFF). His influential publications include 'Triclosan, a commonly used bactericide found in human milk and in the aquatic environment in Sweden' (Chemosphere, 2002), 'Oxidative damage in eelpout (Zoarces viviparus), measured as protein carbonyls and TBARS, as biomarkers' (Aquatic Toxicology, 2005), 'Biochemical indicators of pollution exposure in shorthorn sculpin (Myoxocephalus scorpius), caught in four harbours on the southwest coast of Iceland' (Aquatic Toxicology, 2000), 'Effects of redox cycling compounds on glutathione content and activity of glutathione-related enzymes in rainbow trout liver' (Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part C: Toxicology & Pharmacology, 2002), and 'From cohorts to molecules: Adverse impacts of endocrine disrupting mixtures' (Science, 2022). Sturve supervises PhD students on topics such as effects of endocrine disrupting compound mixtures in fish and cytotoxicity in marine environmental research, advancing knowledge on chemical mixtures, microplastics, PFAS, and oil spill effects.
