Master’s Opportunities in Mass Spectrometry in Switzerland

This EPA fellowship at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency in Duluth, Minnesota focuses on improving how chemical exposure is quantified and modeled in high-throughput toxicity systems. The project sits within the agency’s Chemical Safety and Pollution Prevention effort and the Risk Assessment Support division, where researchers are developing new approach methodologies to generate toxicity information more rapidly and cost-effectively. The fellow will work on a research program centered on...

This research opportunity at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Office of Chemical Safety and Pollution Prevention focuses on improving how volatile chemicals are evaluated for inhalation hazards. The project addresses a major challenge in inhalation science: measured exposure concentration does not always match the amount of chemical delivered to or absorbed by airway cells in dynamic exposure systems. The work brings together exposure engineering, analytical chemistry, cell biology, an...

The MSc Analytical Chemistry at the University of Edinburgh is a one-year, full-time postgraduate programme based at the School of Chemistry’s King’s Buildings campus. It provides advanced theoretical and practical training in the separation, identification and quantification of matter using modern analytical chemistry techniques. Students explore chromatography and separation science, optical spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance, mass spectrometry, electrochemistry and sensors, sampling and...

This research opportunity at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency in Duluth, Minnesota focuses on the aquatic toxicity, uptake, and partitioning of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). The project examines how broad classes of PFAS behave in aquatic systems, how they accumulate in biota, and how they partition in biphasic systems such as octanol/water. Working with EPA scientists and co-mentors Will Backe and Ian Mundy, the participant will contribute to experimental design, sampling ...
