Anwar HOSSAIN (アヌワ　ホサイン)

JSPS Postdoctoral Research Fellow
（JSPS外国人特別研究員)

In Postdoctoral research, I have mainly focused on antibiotic contamination study in different water matrices, and the removal of antibiotic residues, bacteria, and ARGs from different wastewaters to prevent antibiotic selection pressure for the reduction of antibiotic resistance in the natural environments. My key future research interest is to work on non-target/suspect screening of chemical contaminants in aquatic environments and metagenomics study.
