Welcome to my personal website. I am Kristof Moeller — a marine biochemist and data scientist working at the IAEA Marine Environment Laboratories in Monaco, where I focus on harmful algal blooms, marine biotoxins, and the monitoring systems that underpin food safety and ocean governance. This site collects my professional work, projects, and writing in one place.

What you will find here

My publications list all seven of my peer-reviewed papers, with full author strings, journal links, and DOIs. My research spans harmful algal bloom ecology, marine biotoxin detection by LC-MS/MS, and toxicological risk assessment of microalgal species.

I completed my doctorate at the Alfred-Wegener-Institute in Bremerhaven in 2024, and have been based at IAEA-MEL in Monaco since late 2024 as an Associate Research Scientist.

This blog is where I write longer-form reflections — on science, fieldwork, data analysis, and what it means to work at the boundary of research and international policy.

If you are interested in consulting, expert advisory work, or speaking invitations, the contact page has the relevant details. I am available for engagements in harmful algal bloom risk assessment, marine biotoxin monitoring programme design, and environmental data analysis.

More posts to follow. Thanks for stopping by.
