Dr. John E. Anderson earned his Ph.D. in environmental biology
in 1996 from George Mason University, focusing his dissertation
work on the photobiology of microbial precipitates associated
with acid mine drainage. He has worked for over 15 years
in remote sensing using reflectance and fluorescence spectroscopy
to accomplish a wide range of research in wetlands and aquatic
environments. His current work involves the application of
imaging and non-imaging fluorescence to detect pathogens
and genetically engineered plants with expressing protein-based
chromophores. His research customers include federal and
state agencies as well as industry. Anderson has authored
over 20 peer-reviewed papers and three book chapters in the
field of photobiology and remote sensing.
