From 1993 to 1995, she was a post-doctoral fellow at the bioinorganic chemistry laboratory of the University of Pavia (Italy). Then, she had a research assistant position at the EAWAG (Swiss Federal Institute for Environmental Science and Technology) of the ETH Zurich (Switzerland) from 1995 to 1998. She was Associate Professor at the University of the West Indies and Guyana in 1999 and then a full Professor since 2009. She is member of the COVACHIMM Laboratory. She has 20 years of experience in bioprocess engineering, especially on the use of biological systems such as bacteria and enzymes for degradation of chemicals and the interactions between activated carbons and pollutants. Her research works deals on adsorption in aqueous phases with activated carbon or biopolymers, enzyme characterization and metabolism and environmental microbiology, preparation of activated carbons for supercapacitors.
