Ben Mullins is a Research Professor in the School of Population Health at Curtin University. He leads the Occupation, Environment and Safety discipline and is the Lead Scientist on the Murujuga Rock Art Monitoring Project.

He started his research career with a PhD in Environmental/Process engineering from Griffith University, followed by a three-year research position at KIT in Germany, and engineering academic positions at Curtin and Griffith Universities.

Through an interest in aerosol science and health, Ben found his way to his current position in the School of Population Health at Curtin, however his research activities have consistently been focussed on the interface between air pollution, humans and the environment.
