Dr. Anne M. Hansen is a chemist, in 1989 she obtained her PhD in Marine Sciences and Limnology at the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM), and from 1990, she is researcher at the Mexican Institute of Water Technology (IMTA), where she also teach students, mainly from UNAM. Her research focuses on hydrogeochemistry and environmental engineering with special interest in the characterization of pollution problems, contaminant loads dimensioning, and rehabilitation of sediments and water bodies. Dr. Hansen belongs to the Mexican System of Researchers; she is member of the Mexican Institute of Geochemistry (INAGEQ) where she was president from 1994 to 1996. As member of Mexico´s Chapter of InterPore she was vice-president and president from 2018-2022. She actually coordinates the International Sediment Initiative of the Intergovernmental Hydrological Program in Latin America and the Caribbean (PHI-LAC, UNESCO). She is also Friend of Water-Rock Interaction of the International Geochemical Society.
