---|---|
School | Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences |
Department/Area | Environmental Science and Engineering |
Position Description | Two postdoctoral positions are available immediately in the Biogeochemistry of Global Contaminants Group at Harvard University (http://bgc.seas.harvard.edu/). One position will focus on the biogeochemistry of mercury using mercury stable isotope measurements. The second position will involve research on analytical method development for per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). Both positions may also provide opportunities for field sampling and time at sea. Regular interactions and collaborations with group members and students can be expected. |
Basic Qualifications | Ph.D. in analytical chemistry, environmental chemistry or a related discipline. |
Additional Qualifications | For the first position, extensive experience analyzing stable mercury isotopes using a Neptune MC-ICP-MS is a requirement. Candidate should also be familiar with speciated mercury measurements. For the second position, extensive analytical experience with organic contaminants is a requirement. Training on specific methodologies used to measure PFAS will be provided. Experience with non-targeted, high resolution mass spectrometry methods would be an asset. Instruments used in the lab include an Agilent 6460 LC-MS/MS, Metrohm CIC, and Agilent 6460 LC-MS/MS. |
Special Instructions | To apply please submit a curriculum vitae, contact information for three references, a 1-paragraph statement of interest, and two example publications. Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) is dedicated to building a diverse and welcoming community, and we strongly encourage applications from historically underrepresented groups. |
