DESCRIPTION

The Computational Chemodynamics Laboratory (CCL) has a Post-Doctoral Fellowship available for scientists and engineers interested in pursuing interdisciplinary research in the area of mathematical/computational modeling of complex environmental and biological systems for human exposure and health risk assessment. [CCL is a research unit of the Environmental and Occupational Health Sciences Institute (EOHSI), a joint project of UMDNJ - R. W. Johnson Medical School and Rutgers The State University of NJ.]

The Post-Doctoral Fellow will be involved in collaborative research focusing on the development of an integrated framework for modeling the physicochemical fate and transport processes, and associated uncertainties, involved in the sequence leading from the release or formation of a toxic chemical in the environment to its uptake by the human body and its target tissue dose and effect. Currently, post-doctoral positions are available in the following areas:

Bioinformatics and computational toxicology for human health risk applications (requires experience with platforms such as Matlab, R, BioConductor, ArrayTrack, etc.).

COMPENSATION

This Post-Doctoral Fellowship is for one year (renewable for up to three years) and carries an annual stipend of $44-52,000, depending on experience and qualifications.
