About me
Matthew MacLeod is Professor of Environmental Science at Stockholm University, Sweden, and Deputy Dean of Earth and Environmental Science. He is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry (FRSC) and is currently one of Sweden’s “Designated Experts” to the Arctic Council’s Arctic Monitoring and Assessment Programme (AMAP).
He holds a Bachelor’s degree from the University of Victoria (Canada), and Master’s and PHD degrees from Trent University (Canada). Prior to moving to Sweden in 2010 he was a post-doctoral researcher at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (USA) (2002-04) and a Research Group Leader at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) in Zurich, Switzerland (2004-10).
Professor MacLeod uses mathematical models and data analysis to study the factors that control human and environmental exposure to environmental contaminants, and the links between the three dimensions of the “triple planetary crisis” of pollution, climate change and biodiversity loss. The goal of his research is to build a quantitative understanding of humanity’s impacts on the Earth system, and to develop practical tools and guidance to support rational decision-making.
I am co-responsible for the compulsory introductory course to the Master's in Environmental Science, "Large Scale Challenges to Climate the Environment" and I teach a Master's level course on partitioning of organic chemicals in the environment.
I am also co-responsible for degree projects in the Master's of Environmental Science Programmes.
Until 2022, I was course responsible for Chemometrics in the Master's of Analytical Chemistry programme, and I co-developed the course "Data Analysis: Tools for Environmental Scientists".
