Postdoc in Environmental Chemistry and Gut Microbiology University of Bern in Switzerland

PhD opportunity at Monash University Malaysia in an interdisciplinary project on aptamer-based biosensing for monitoring nanoplastic and biotoxin co-exposure as a human exposome surveillance platform. The project aims to address a major gap in exposome research by developing a continuous biosensing platform that can detect and quantify nanoplastics and biotoxins directly in the human microenvironment. The work involves aptamer selection and validation (SELEX), binding kinetics analysis, optimisa...

Three postdoctoral research fellow positions are available at the University of Michigan through the NIEHS T32 Environmental Toxicology and Epidemiology Program (ETEP) . The opportunity is aimed at researchers interested in biomedical toxicology , environmental epidemiology , exposome , exposure science , and environmental informatics . Fellows may propose their own research topics, provided they align with the interests of the training program faculty. Professor Stuart Batterman notes a particu...

PhD opportunity at Monash University Malaysia in Subang Jaya, Malaysia on an aptamer-based biosensing platform for monitoring nanoplastic and biotoxin co-exposure as a human exposome surveillance platform. The project sits at the intersection of analytical chemistry , environmental science , toxicology , bioinformatics , and related biosensing research. The work will develop a continuous biosensing system using aptamers functionalised on a gold nanoparticle lateral flow assay (LFA) . It includes...

PhD opportunity at the Institute of Environmental Assessment and Water Research (IDAEA-CSIC) in Barcelona, Spain, focused on the environmental science , chemistry , biology , and public health dimensions of compostable bioplastics. The project develops an integrative multi-level framework combining Effect-Directed Analysis (EDA) , High-Resolution Mass Spectrometry (HRMS) , and New Approach Methodologies (NAMs) to assess risks from compostable bioplastic materials. The successful candidate will s...

[3-year studentship; full Home tuition fees plus a stipend of £19,830 per annum at the 2026-27 rate.] University of Plymouth is offering a fully funded 3-year PhD studentship in Medical Studies for the project SHIELD: Systematic Assessment of Hepatic Micro- and Nanoplastic Accumulation and Clearance in Liver Disease . This project tackles an important and emerging problem in environmental hepatology: how micro- and nanoplastics (MNPs) accumulate, persist, and are cleared from the liver, and whet...
