questions in environmental chemistry and microbiology: \u201cWhat geochemical and microbial processes influence the fate of emerging contaminants in the environment, and how do they interact?\u201d and \u201cHow well do we understand the links between the environment, animals, and humans regarding these contaminants?\u201d His work combines a range of analytical and biological methods to assess the environmental impacts of human activities, with a particular focus on the occurrence and dynamics of metal(loid)s and antibiotic resistance in urban and agricultural ecosystems. His past studies include examining soil lead contamination in Los Angeles, metal-co-selective effects on antibiotic resistance in urban green infrastructure and biosolid-applied agricultural soils in Kern County, and the effects of irrigation with reused water on agricultural soils in Ensenada, Mexico. Current research areas include (1) investigating environmental factors, including other emerging contaminants, that influence the persistence of antibiotic resistance; (2) developing standardized, low-tech field methods for quantifying antibiotic resistance and associated contaminants in water and soil; and (3) examining the role of airborne antibiotic resistance in contaminant transport across Â鶹´«Ã½ Oregon and beyond.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-m2w5wan2-4c6bafa115f98f8cd561bae49629c385\">\n.avia-image-container.av-m2w5wan2-4c6bafa115f98f8cd561bae49629c385 img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-m2w5wan2-4c6bafa115f98f8cd561bae49629c385 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-m2w5wan2-4c6bafa115f98f8cd561bae49629c385 av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-8  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock '   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2022\/12\/Anna-Oliveri-Â鶹´«Ã½-Chemistry-Program-Research.webp 1200w,https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2022\/12\/Anna-Oliveri-Â鶹´«Ã½-Chemistry-Program-Research-300x100.webp 300w,https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2022\/12\/Anna-Oliveri-Â鶹´«Ã½-Chemistry-Program-Research-1030x343.webp 1030w,https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2022\/12\/Anna-Oliveri-Â鶹´«Ã½-Chemistry-Program-Research-768x256.webp 768w,https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2022\/12\/Anna-Oliveri-Â鶹´«Ã½-Chemistry-Program-Research-705x235.webp 705w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" type=\"image\/webp\"><img src=\"https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2022\/12\/Anna-Oliveri-Â鶹´«Ã½-Chemistry-Program-Research.jpg\" height=\"400\" width=\"1200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2022\/12\/Anna-Oliveri-Â鶹´«Ã½-Chemistry-Program-Research.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2022\/12\/Anna-Oliveri-Â鶹´«Ã½-Chemistry-Program-Research-300x100.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2022\/12\/Anna-Oliveri-Â鶹´«Ã½-Chemistry-Program-Research-1030x343.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2022\/12\/Anna-Oliveri-Â鶹´«Ã½-Chemistry-Program-Research-768x256.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2022\/12\/Anna-Oliveri-Â鶹´«Ã½-Chemistry-Program-Research-705x235.jpg 705w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" class=\"wp-image-82922 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-82922 avia_image  sp-no-webp\" alt=\"Anna Oliveri Â鶹´«Ã½ Chemistry Program Research\" decoding=\"async\" fetchpriority=\"high\" itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\"  > <\/picture><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-m2w5vsvt-4bff3978c06638f6d6eff5e99e0d1b5a '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p><span class=\"heavy-man\">Anna Oliveri &#8211; Inorganic Chemistry<\/span><br \/>\nDr. Oliveri\u2019s research is in the field of inorganic chemistry with a twist of environmental and geochemical applications. Her specialty focuses on nanoscale polyatomic ion cluster behavior in solution, and to date she has studied gallium, indium, aluminum, bismuth, and uranium nanoclusters. Dr. Oliveri shows undergraduate researchers how to use Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) to observe these nanoclusters\u2019 structures, concentrations, and dynamic behaviors in aqueous environments. Her current research focuses on aluminum. Aluminum is ubiquitous in the environment and the cation forms multiple polyatomic cluster species dependent upon concentration and pH. Aluminum has industrial applications in cosmetics, water treatments, and material science, but the fundamental solution behavior of this metal has yet to be fully understood. With the help of Â鶹´«Ã½ undergraduates, Dr. Oliveri plans to slowly unravel the enigma that is aqueous aluminum chemistry.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-m2w5yh36-6426b87d9d4964ed7ff1d9301e087676\">\n.avia-image-container.av-m2w5yh36-6426b87d9d4964ed7ff1d9301e087676 img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-m2w5yh36-6426b87d9d4964ed7ff1d9301e087676 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-m2w5yh36-6426b87d9d4964ed7ff1d9301e087676 av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-10  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock '   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2022\/12\/Hala-Schepmann-Bioorganic-Natural-Products-Chemistry.webp 1200w,https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2022\/12\/Hala-Schepmann-Bioorganic-Natural-Products-Chemistry-300x100.webp 300w,https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2022\/12\/Hala-Schepmann-Bioorganic-Natural-Products-Chemistry-1030x343.webp 1030w,https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2022\/12\/Hala-Schepmann-Bioorganic-Natural-Products-Chemistry-768x256.webp 768w,https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2022\/12\/Hala-Schepmann-Bioorganic-Natural-Products-Chemistry-705x235.webp 705w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" type=\"image\/webp\"><img src=\"https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2022\/12\/Hala-Schepmann-Bioorganic-Natural-Products-Chemistry.jpg\" height=\"400\" width=\"1200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2022\/12\/Hala-Schepmann-Bioorganic-Natural-Products-Chemistry.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2022\/12\/Hala-Schepmann-Bioorganic-Natural-Products-Chemistry-300x100.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2022\/12\/Hala-Schepmann-Bioorganic-Natural-Products-Chemistry-1030x343.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2022\/12\/Hala-Schepmann-Bioorganic-Natural-Products-Chemistry-768x256.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2022\/12\/Hala-Schepmann-Bioorganic-Natural-Products-Chemistry-705x235.jpg 705w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" class=\"wp-image-82925 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-82925 avia_image  sp-no-webp\" alt=\"Hala Schepmann Bioorganic Natural Products Chemistry\" decoding=\"async\" fetchpriority=\"high\" itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\"  > <\/picture><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-m2w5yb02-37ab27f1d9e0d1aa95c070977553207f '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p><span class=\"heavy-man\">Hala Schepmann &#8211; Bioorganic \/ Natural Products Chemistry<\/span><br \/>\nDr. Schepmann\u2019s research focuses on the isolation and characterization of bioactive natural products.
