I am specialised in the One and Planetary Health cross field of biological effects from exposure to environmental chemicals, diseases and climate change. I am working with a broad range of animals including predatory mammals, raptorial birds, sea birds, fish and partly Humans. I have a broad insight and interest in multiple stressors and I use my global network to obtain interdisciplinary research to study the services, dynamics and health of Arctic and European ecosystems. Since 2015, I have applied my in-depth knowledge and understanding of biological processes including specific wildlife issues in Denmark (eider duck population declines) and health of raptors. I have a broad insight and interest in internal and reproductive organs (histopathology, size, and morphology), skeletal system (bone density and morphology using e.g. DXA scanning), central nervous system, immune system (intra dermal and in vitro testing of lymphocyte functioning, immune globulin production and cytokine and APP expressions), endocrine system (steroid and peptide hormones), PBPK modelling, blood biochemistry and infectious diseases (zoonosis). I have a great interest in the Global Goals and sustainability in relation to resources, pollution, energy, recycling, biodiversity and ecosystem services in relation to food security and safety is vital for me when I work on One and Planetary Health. I’m also specialised in surgical field implantations of intra-coelomic (abdominally) and subcutaneously satellite transmitters (PTTs) in various sea bird species and immobilization of deer spp.
报告摘要
Exposure to long-range transported industrial chemicals such as persistent organic pollutants (POPs) and other pollutants such as mercury pose a risk to the overall health and populations of Arctic wildlife and Northerners. Since local communities are relying on the same marine food web as marine mammals in the Arctic, it requires a One Health approach to understand the holistic ecosystem health including that of the environment, animals and humans. Given the long marine food chains and the biomagnification of most contaminants, top predators such as Inuits, polar bears and toothed whales end up with extremely high exposures posing risks of effects at population-level. Here I give an overview of the current knowledge on POPs and mercury in the Arctic environment, molecular effects and the consequences for animals and humans in terms of adverse health effects. I also discuss the future perspectives of planetary health in relation to other stressors such as climate change and zoonotic infectious diseases.
