hela Sverige We are looking for a postdoctoral researcher in chemistry for a fixed-term position at the School of Science and Technology / Unit for Natural Science.
Subject area
The subject area for this position is chemistry, with specialization in Environmental Analytical Chemistry.
Background
The Man-Technology-Environment (MTM) Research Centre focuses on toxicant screening, as well as discovery and hazard assessment of toxic chemicals using molecular toxicology, epidemiology, and analytical chemistry together with industry, government, and academia. The research areas are metabolomics (exposome-disease studies), mixture, epigenetic and particle toxicology, applied environmental chemistry, occupational health, and microplastics. MTM has in the last years built a solid research environment with state-of-the-art modern infrastructure for projects in analytical chemistry and toxicology using for example effect-directed analysis (EDA) and high-performance separation methods.
We are now looking for a postdoctoral researcher to join our team and work on an ongoing research project about screening of hazardous substances in sewage sludge. The overall focus of the project is developing a broad and cost-effective characterization of hazardous substances in sewage sludge using effect-based analysis and non-target analytical methods.
Duties and responsibilities
The appointment as a postdoctoral researcher is intended to enable persons who have recently been awarded their doctoral degree to consolidate and develop primarily their research skills.
The successful candidate will mainly work with suspect and non-target screening of sewage sludge using high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS), foremost hyphenated with gas chromatography but other separation techniques might be relevant. Matrices such as soil and crops are also important and included in the project. The research will be conducted in close collaboration with environmental toxicologists responsible for the effect-based analysis. The work will also to a minor part consist of analysis of microplastics in sludge according to existing protocols.
