Emma Schymanski (born Emma Craven) is chemist known for her work identifying unknown organic compounds, particularly pollutants, and is an advocate for open science.

Education and career

Schymanski graduated with a B.Sc. in Chemistry and a B.E. in Environmental Engineering from the University of Western Australia in 2003.[1] While at the University of Western Australia, Schymanski combined chemistry and environmental engineering and used her 'interest in chemistry to help solve the complicated issues involved in contaminated sites assessment and remediation'.[1] As an undergraduate, she participated in the 2002 Nobel Laureate conference which brings Nobel laureates and young scientists together; Schymanski and Pia Sappl were the first students from the University of Western Australia to receive this invitation and possibly the first Australians.[2]

After college, Schymanski spent three years at Golder Associates in Perth as an environmental engineer[3] and then joined the Helmholtz Centre for Environmental Research in Leipzig Germany where she finished her Ph.D. in 2011.[3] Schymanski subsequent postdoctoral positions were at the Swiss Federal Institute of Aquatic Science and Technology (Eawag) and a Marie Curie Intra-European Postdoctoral Fellowship at École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL).[3] Schymanski is currently and Associate Professor at the University of Luxembourg where she is the head of the Environmental Cheminformatics Group.[4]

In 2021, Schymanski was interviewed by the Metabolomics Society article in MetaboNews and during the interview she describes her introduction to the field of metabolomics, the current strengths of the field, and potential future application of metabolomics research.[5]

Research

Schymanski's first research publications were as an undergraduate at the University of Western Australia, where she worked on developing new metal-containing polymers which resulted in three lead author publications.[6][7][8]

As a graduate student, Schymanski started work on using information on the fragments of organic compounds as a means to expand the identification of unknown compounds.[9] Schymanski then applied these novel methods to the identification of unknown organic compounds found in wastewater,[10] and used data collectively gathered by the NORMAN Association to define barriers to the identification of unknown organic compounds in water.[11]

In 2012, Schymanski and Steffen Neumann started the Critical Assessment of Small Molecule Identification (CASMI) contest that provided researchers with information about unknown organic compounds and challenged them to identify the compounds. {cite that}.

CASMI in 2016[12] in 2013[13][14] (looks like the contest ran from 2012 to 2017), started by



Schymanski is an advocate for open science and data sharing. Within the NORMAN network, a collaborative activity across Europe, North America, and Asia, Schymanski worked in 2011 with the team that established NORMAN MassBank,[15][16] which was a community-driven project to gather information about small molecules. In 2015, Schymanski expanded this type of data with the NORMAN Suspect List Exchange.[17] Schymanski has also worked to develop computational tools that allow the processing of complex high resolution mass spectrometry data[18] and sought to establish standards to consider the quality of the mass spectrometry data.[19] Schymanski's 2014 publication in Environmental Science & Technology[20] establishes a means to estimate confidence in the quality of unknown organic compound identifications, and has over 1000 citations as of 2021. In 2018, Schymanski considered this paper her greatest achievement because it established the standard for compound identification in metabolomics and encouraged community conversation about future of these tools.[21]

Awards

  • Royal Society of Western Australia, University Medal for outstanding student in natural and earth sciences (2003)[27]
  • Society of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, Best Platform Presentation by a student (2008) [28]
  • ATTRACT award[29] press release[30] FNR fellowship[31]

Personal life

Schymanski is married to Stan Schymanski, an ecohydrologist.[32] and he has shared insight about dual career couples and their path to positions in Luxembourg.[33] They are the first dual career couple to both receive the FNR ATTRACT award.[30]
