mgr Anna Różewska

PhD student

ORCID: 0000-0002-5061-7303

She is a PhD student at the Adam Mickiewicz University Doctoral School (chemical sciences). The subject of her work is the optimization of modern analytical methods such as LIBS and LA–ICP MS spectrometry in order to develop tools enabling precise analysis of plant samples from areas with intensive anthropogenic activity, which will allow for more accurate monitoring of changes in the environment.
