Biography

Helle Vibeke Andersen is affiliated with Aalborg University’s Department of the Built Environment, focusing on indoor air quality and pollution. Her research examines the exchange of chemical substances, particularly semi-volatile organic compounds, between indoor air and surfaces such as building materials and dust. Since 2012, she has primarily concentrated on polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in buildings, addressing related issues of indoor climate, exposure, and construction waste. Andersen has developed guidelines for PCB-affected buildings, gained insights into the challenges faced by various stakeholders, and led research projects on emissions and exposure to PCBs. With extensive experience in designing and managing measurement programs and field studies, she teaches courses on problematic substances in interior air. Furthermore, she has supervised master's theses and co-supervised PhD projects. Andersen has participated in projects aimed at improving the handling of construction waste and has served on advisory committees, including the Danish Health Authority's Scientific Advisory Committee. As of 2023, she is involved in various initiatives to enhance sustainability in the building sector.
