Julia Huchthausen

Julia Huchthausen studied biochemistry at Leipzig University until 2019. She successfully completed her studies with her master’s thesis on "Experimental exposure assessment of organic ions in selected in vitro bioassays". The thesis was part of the CEFIC-LRI funded project Eco36.

After working for one and a half years as a research assistant in the Department of Cell Toxicology, Julia is now focusing on the stability and metabolization of chemicals in in vitro bioassays in her PhD project. The PhD is part of the PrecisionTox project funded by the European Union's Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation Programme.

Hot Papers

We are always pleased to host young scholars at Celltox for measurement of their samples in in vitro assays. Check out two new papers stemming from such collaborations.
Dr. Pavel Saur is a fish biology expert who worked on water qualitiy during his visit at UFZ and his paper "Bioanalytical and chemical characterization of organic micropollutant mixtures in long-term exposed passive samplers from the Joint Danube Survey 4: Setting a baseline for water quality monitoring” is a first testimony of this fruitful collaboration.
Fei Chen visited from Guangdong Key Laboratory of Environmental Pollution and Health, School of Environment, Jinan University, Guangzhou, China (before the pandemic) and first outcomes can be found in "Text Mining-Based Suspect Screening for Aquatic Risk Assessment in the Big Data Era: Event-Driven Taxonomy Links Chemical Exposures and Hazards”.
