About Caroline
Professor Caroline Gauchotte-Lindsay is Professor of Environmental Engineering and Chemistry in the Infrastructure and Environment section of the James Watt School of Engineering at the University of Glasgow. She graduated in applied physics and chemistry from ESPCI-ParisTech in 2004, earned a DEA in analytical chemistry from Université Paris VI (Pierre et Marie Curie), an MSc in forensic science from the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow, and a PhD in Environmental Engineering from Queen’s University Belfast in 2010. Prior to joining the University of Glasgow as a Lecturer in September 2012, she conducted postdoctoral research in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of Strathclyde, developing original analytical solutions to track the fate of organic micropollutants in subsurface environments to enhance risk assessment, liability identification, and remediation strategies.
Dr Gauchotte-Lindsay’s research investigates changes in the signatures of complex environmental samples during physical, chemical, and microbial processes in subsurface and engineered water systems at bulk, intermolecular, and atomic levels. Her current efforts focus on the links between chemical signature alterations and microbial ecology, as well as modeling and assessing the environmental impacts of organic compound releases from the resource extraction industry. Specializing in environmental and forensic analytical chemistry, she develops novel sample treatment and analytical methods for characterizing the fate of complex organic environmental samples, with expertise in techniques including pressurized liquid extraction, advanced stable isotope mass spectrometry, and comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography. Key publications encompass 'Sporosarcina pasteurii urease gene expression regulation mechanism overcomes urease inhibition by hydrocarbons' (Journal of Hazardous Materials, 2026), 'Deterministically selected rare taxa drive changes in community composition in drinking water biological activated carbon filters' (Environmental Microbiome, 2025), 'Feasibility of microbial-induced calcite precipitation in soils polluted by hydrocarbons' (Environmental Science: Processes and Impacts, 2025), 'BODIPY-labeled estrogens for fluorescence analysis of environmental microbial degradation' (ACS Omega, 2022), and 'Average daily flow of microplastics through a tertiary wastewater treatment plant over a ten-month period' (Water Research, 2019).
