Research Opportunity on the Aquatic Toxicity, Uptake, and Partitioning of PFAS U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in United States

This EPA fellowship is based at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency in Duluth, Minnesota, within the Risk Assessment Support division and the broader Chemical Safety and Pollution Prevention research effort. The project addresses a key challenge in high-throughput toxicity testing: how to better quantify what test organisms are actually exposed to in small multi-well plate systems, where chemical partitioning, volatility, and transformation can cause measured concentrations to differ from n...

This EPA fellowship is based at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Office of Chemical Safety and Pollution Prevention at the Andrew W. Breidenbach Environmental Research Center in Cincinnati, Ohio. The project is centered on improving how toxicity of environmental contaminants is assessed for aquatic organisms using alternative testing approaches and high-throughput methods. The research focuses on generating and interpreting toxicity information for small aquatic organisms such as embry...

Postdoctoral Fellow at The University of Texas at Austin, Marine Science Institute This postdoctoral opening is in the Department of Marine Science at the University of Texas at Austin, with the work primarily located in Port Aransas, Texas, and occasional travel to Austin. The project focuses on environmental chemistry , microplastics and nanoplastics , plastic weathering, and the environmental processes that degrade plastics photochemically or biologically. The fellow may also work on natural ...
