PhD Opportunities in Mass Spectrometry in South Korea

This PhD project, STILANTIBIO (“How Do Plant Polyphenolic Stilbenoids Act as Antimicrobial Agents?”), explores how plant-derived stilbenoids act against microbes through a combined approach in chemistry, chemical biology, microbiology, and bioinformatics. The doctoral research is part of a collaborative programme with the Institut de Chimie & Biologie des Membranes et des Nano-objets (CBMN) and the Centre de BioInformatique de Bordeaux (CBiB) . The student will work on the design and synthesis o...

Pacific Northwest National Laboratory is offering a PhD internship in atmospheric chemistry within the Integrated Discovery Sciences Directorate. The intern will join researchers working on atmospheric chemistry projects associated with the Environmental Molecular Sciences Laboratory (EMSL). The project focuses on using high-resolution mass spectrometry to characterize the organic molecular composition of atmospheric particles. Samples will include laboratory-generated materials as well as sampl...

The PhD project is based in the Crespi group at Uppsala University’s Department of Chemistry – Ångström Laboratory, a large chemistry environment with strong internationally oriented research and education activities. The work focuses on phosphorus-based photoswitches and the project “Hemiphosphaindigos: New Gears for Molecular Machines” , funded by the Swedish Research Council. The successful candidate will work on the design and synthesis of new phosphorus-containing indigoid chromophores and ...

This PhD project at Utrecht University investigates how bio-based and biodegradable plastics break down and what that means for human health and safer materials design. The research links analytical chemistry with toxicology to follow plastics through degradation, identify the resulting micro- and nanoplastics and leachates, and study their biological effects. You will work on the full chain from polymer degradation to hazard assessment. The project includes exposing pristine polymers and plasti...

The University of Vienna’s Faculty of Chemistry is seeking a predoctoral University Assistant to join Prof. Christopher Gerner’s working group at the Institute of Analytical Chemistry. The PhD research will investigate small molecules that act as modulators of biological signaling processes, including oxidized fatty acids, endocannabinoids and bile acids. The project combines the development of advanced analytical methods with biologically relevant research questions, offering an interdisciplina...

[Funded through the CENTA3 DLA by the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC). Funding covers an annual stipend, tuition fees at home-fee level, and a Research Training Support Grant. International students are eligible up to 30% of the cohort, but funding does not cover additional costs of moving or residing in the UK.] This PhD studentship focuses on the microbial cycling of lipids in the ocean, combining laboratory and field-based approaches to understand how marine lipid compounds are tr...

The Carol Davila University of Medicine and Pharmacy in Bucharest is offering a full-time PhD student position within the ARES project, National Multidisciplinary Research Center of Excellence for Drug-Resistant Infections . The selected researcher will join the university team as a research assistant in a project focused on antimicrobial formulations and analytical characterisation. The work combines formulation science and analytical chemistry. The PhD student will help develop lipid and vesic...

The Somyajit laboratory at the University of Southern Denmark invites applications for a fully funded PhD fellowship in the Quantitative Cell Biology and Bioimaging research unit at the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. The project sits at the intersection of cell cycle control, DNA replication, and genome surveillance, and is designed around a fundamental question in how cells cope when their genome doubles. The PhD student will investigate how whole-genome doubling reshapes the...

The FBI Counterterrorism and Forensic Science Research Unit (CFSRU) Visiting Scientist Program offers recent graduates the chance to join an immersive STEM research environment at the FBI laboratory in Quantico, Virginia. Participants work alongside CFSRU scientists on research that supports forensic science and evidence collection for law enforcement and national security. The research portfolio spans molecular biology, genetics, analytical chemistry, geology, geophysics, statistics, and physic...
