Jasmine Nahrgang
Job description
I am a Professor in Arctic Marine Ecotoxicology. My research focuses on the biological effects of petroleum-related contaminants on Arctic marine species, with particular emphasis on sensitive life stages and critical life-cycle processes such as reproduction.
I am responsible and teach the master's-level course Fundamentals in Ecotoxicology (BIO-3020). I also serve as a member of the Faculty Board at the Faculty of Biosciences, Fisheries and Economics (BFE) and on the board of the Aquaculture Research Station in Tromsø (Havbruksstasjonen i Tromsø).

Research interests
My research focuses on the biological effects of petroleum-related contaminants on Arctic marine species. In particular, I study the sensitivity of early life stages and how contaminant exposure affects critical life-cycle events such as reproduction and post-spawning condition. My work also includes studies of the baseline biology and life-cycle strategies of Arctic organisms, as well as the development of biological tools and indicators for monitoring the impacts of oil contamination in Arctic marine environments.
Teaching
BIO 3020 Fundamentals in Ecotoxicology (10 ECTS)
BIO 3009 Arctic marine pollution (10 ECTS)
