Sam Varvastian

I am a lecturer and a comparative legal scholar. I work on global environmental problems, public health, human rights and justice. I have published more than 20 scholarly works that explore law and policy issues in air pollution, plastic pollution, climate change, soil contamination, emerging medical technologies, food supplements and tobacco products. My work covers international law, European Union law and comparative national law. I am particularly interested in the role of courts in the development of law and the relationships between law and life sciences. I am also a member of the editorial board of the Journal of Human Rights and the Environment, the leading scholarly platform in its field for both academics and practitioners.
