Professional activities
Jörg works as a technician at the UFZ Leipzig. Within the Department Exposure Science, he is responsible for the preparation and implementation of sampling campaigns, the maintenance of sampling equipment and its further development.
After studying, he worked in various research teams and gained experience both in the laboratory and in the field, e.g. in groundwater and surface water sampling and working with plant constructed wetlands.
For more than 10 years he was technically responsible for the pilot plants of the BMBF-project SAFIRA.
