Rai Kookana is a Chief Research Scientist with CSIRO and is affiliated as Professor with The University of Adelaide. Since his PhD from the University of Western Australia (1989), he has been conducting research and development on the fate and behaviour of organic contaminant in, and their effects and risks on, the terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. Rai’s current research interests include understanding and managing ecological risks of emerging contaminants in the environment. His research over last 35 years has dealt with pesticides, , pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs), hydraulic fracking chemicals and nanomaterials. The current focus of his research work is on the fate, transport and remediation of persistent and mobile organic pollutants Per- and Poly-fluoro Alkyl Substances (PFAS) in the environment. Rai has served as the President of IUPAC Division of Chemistry and The Environment for the biennium 2018-2020. Currently, he represents IUPAC at The Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research (SCAR). Dr Kookana worked as a Science Fellow of Australian Pesticides and Veterinary Medicines Authority (APVMA) for a decade (2005-2015). Rai was elected Fellow of the Soil Science Society of America in 2012. In 2016, he became the recipient of the prestigious Prescott Medal, awarded by Soil Science Australia. In 2021 he was awarded the CSIRO’s Lifetime Achievement Medal.
