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...

The University of Oldenburg is offering a doctoral researcher position in physical chemistry within the Institute of Chemistry and the Physical Chemistry working group (Wittstock Lab). The project will establish Surface Enhanced Infrared Absorption Spectroscopy (SEIRAS) for applications at electrochemical interfaces. The researcher will develop methods for modifying optical windows with a rough, thin gold layer and assemble and test a new spectroelectrochemical cell. The new cell will enable in ...

Malmö University invites applications for a doctoral project in biomedical science focused on transforming oral fluids—primarily saliva—into reliable materials for non-invasive laboratory diagnostics. The project addresses a central challenge in multi-omics research: ensuring that disease signatures and biomarkers remain reproducible across sampling, laboratory processing, analysis, and interpretation. The doctoral researcher will establish and validate standardized workflows for metabolomics an...

PhD project in agricultural polymer degradation and microplastics Environmental Geosciences (EDGE) at the University of Vienna is seeking a PhD researcher to investigate how agricultural polymers fragment into microplastics and nanoplastics in soil. The project addresses an important challenge in developing environmentally safe agricultural materials: although biodegradable polymers are designed to break down fully in the field, their degradation may pass through a temporary stage in which micro...

The University of Luxembourg is offering a doctoral researcher position in water engineering and monitoring within the Horizon Europe PFAROS project. The PhD research will investigate the role of hospital wastewater in the pollution caused by per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), a group of persistent chemicals relevant to public health, environmental protection, and sustainable healthcare. The doctoral researcher will examine whether hospital wastewater contributes to PFAS pollution and d...
