SEGH Fellows

In May 2019, the board of SEGH created a new level of membership: Fellow. 

This is an invitation-only membership level and reflects the fact that the individual concerned has been very active within SEGH, or within the field which SEGH represents.


Do you know someone who you think should be a Fellow? If so, please write to the board, (segh.secretary@gmail.com) suggesting why you think this should be the case, providing some background to this person. The board will then consider the proposal, and make an invitation to that person, if appropriate.

Professor at the Université Libre de Bruxelles, ULB, in Brussels, Belgium, she is Head of the Laboratoire G-Time (Geochemistry – Tracing by Isotopes, Minerals and Elements) from the DGES (Department of Geosciences, Environment and Society) and Head of the Earth Sciences teaching program. She is geologist and geochemist, and her research focuses on the study of sources and transport processes of metals in the soil-plant-atmosphere system by applying isotopic tracers (radiogenic and non-traditional stable isotopes). Her on-going projects in environmental geochemistry are dedicated to the sources and atmospheric cloud processing affecting the dusts on the eastern coast of Antarctica (see: CHASE program, http://www.polarfoundation.org/news_press/news/chase_unravelling_the_mystery_of_particles_from_the_atmosphere_to_snow or http://www.bncar.be/ ).

Sanja Potgieter-Vermaak is a Senior Lecturer in Analytical Chemistry at Manchester Metropolitan University in Manchester, UK. She heads the environmental change research group in the Ecology and Environmental Research Centre at MMU. Her research focus is on the health effects of air pollution (using various in-vitro techniques) and she has expertise in the monitoring and chemical characterisation of airborne particles for different geochemical origins, as well as indoor environments. The emphasis is specifically on the inhalable size fraction (using novel techniques e.g. InSEM-Raman) and source apportionment of transition metals. Dr. Potgieter-Vermaak published 91 papers in prestigious journals for e.g. STOTEN, Atmospheric Environment and Environment International. She has been the lead researcher in air pollution monitoring and characterisation projects in Belgium and produced several reports on the findings.
