About the job

The Department of Chemistry at NTNU has a vacancy for a PhD Candidate position in environmental analytical chemistry, focusing on non-target analysis and suspect screening workflows. For a position as a PhD Candidate, the goal is a completed doctoral education up to an obtained doctoral degree. 

Chemical pollution is recognized as a key drivers of biodiversity loss. Protection of the environment and human health from the impacts of pollution is key in securing a resilient society. Due to the high number and enormous complexity of chemicals of potential concern, advances in high-resolution analytical techniques are urgently needed. The bottleneck for such analysis remains time-consuming data analysis processes, that can only be tackled by a combination of robust workflows with advanced data analysis tools.

Funded by NTNU, the PhD project will tackle this challenge by developing multiple non-target analytical workflows aimed at detecting persistent and/or toxic pollutants present in complex environmental samples and/or discharges. A key component of the project will be the development of data analysis workflows that tackle big data sets and enables both detection and prioritization of detected compounds through modelling of their environmental and toxicological properties. 

The candidate will be part of the Environmental and Analytical Chemistry Group (Environmental and Analytical Chemistry - Department of Chemistry - NTNU) at the Department of Chemistry. The candidate's main supervisor will be Associate Professor Lisbet Sørensen. 

Your immediate leader is the Head of the Department of Chemistry. 

Duties of the position


	Development and comparison of non-target analysis methods (GC-HRMS, LC-HRMS) focusing on data assessment workflows.
	Application of developed methods in the context of pollutant prioritization, focusing on identification of ‘novel’ persistent and/or toxic pollutants in complex mixtures.
	Supervision of master students and contribution to scientific dissemination and discussions within the research group.
	Publishing in peer-reviewed journals.
	Presentation of scientific work at conferences.


Required selection criteria
