Ph.D. Student and Postdoc Openings in Exposure Science and Analytical Chemistry
|
|
The NexGenPPT (https://nexgenppt.iastate.edu/) at Iowa State University invites applications for Ph.D. student and postdoctoral researcher positions in exposure science and analytical chemistry. We are seeking researchers interested in chemical exposure assessment, passive sampling, polymer and textile materials, and data-driven modeling. Research Areas Our research examines how hazardous chemicals are generated, transported, deposited, and retained on personal protective equipment, wearable samplers, and polymer or textile materials. Current projects address firefighter smoke exposure, battery-related fire emissions, passive sampling, PPE contamination, and personal exposure assessment. Potential research topics include: Development and evaluation of wearable and passive sampling materials Measurement of PAHs, volatile and semivolatile organic compounds, metals, and other fire-related contaminants Sample preparation and chemical analysis using techniques such as GC–MS and ICP–MS Adsorption, absorption, diffusion, and desorption of chemicals in polymers, fibers, fabrics, and nanofiber materials Chemical contamination and decontamination of personal protective equipment Mechanistic, statistical, and machine-learning models for exposure estimation and material performance Integration of chemical, environmental, sensor, and personal exposure data Qualifications for Ph.D. Applicants Required qualifications: A bachelor's or master's degree in chemistry, analytical chemistry, environmental or occupational health, chemical engineering, materials science, polymer science, textile engineering, environmental engineering, or a related field Previous laboratory or research experience Basic quantitative and data-analysis skills Strong interest in interdisciplinary research Ability to communicate clearly in written and spoken English Ability to meet the admission requirements of the relevant Iowa State University graduate program Preferred qualifications: Experience with chemical sample preparation or instrumental analysis Knowledge of exposure assessment, passive sampling, or occupational health Experience with polymers, textiles, fibers, membranes, coatings, or nanomaterials Experience with Python, R, MATLAB, statistical modeling, or machine learning Research experience involving smoke, aerosols, environmental contaminants, or personal protective equipment Qualifications for Postdoctoral Applicants Required qualifications: A Ph.D. in analytical chemistry, exposure science, environmental or occupational health, chemical engineering, materials science, polymer science, textile engineering, or a closely related field by the position start date Strong experience in exposure science, analytical chemistry, or chemical–material interactions Ability to independently design experiments, analyze data, and interpret results Experience with research quality assurance and quality control A record of peer-reviewed publications Strong scientific writing and communication skills Ability to work with researchers and students from different disciplines Preferred qualifications: Experience with GC–MS, LC–MS, ICP–MS, or related analytical methods Experience with passive sampling, personal exposure monitoring, or environmental sampling Knowledge of sorption, diffusion, mass transfer, or contaminant transport in polymers and textiles Experience with fibers, fabrics, protective clothing, membranes, coatings, or nanofibers Experience with Python, R, MATLAB, mechanistic modeling, statistical modeling, or machine learning Experience managing research projects, mentoring students, or contributing to research proposals Applicants are not expected to have expertise in every area. Strong candidates will have a solid background in exposure science or analytical chemistry and experience or interest in at least one complementary area: polymer/textile materials or computational modeling and AI. Funding and Appointment Ph.D. students will receive stipend, tuition support, and health insurance. The postdoctoral appointment will be for one year, with possible renewal based on performance and funding. Salary and benefits will follow Iowa State University policies. Visa eligibility and sponsorship will follow university policies. Application Please email the following materials to mezhang@iastate.edu: A curriculum vitae A cover letter describing your research experience, interests, and fit with the position Contact information for three references Academic transcripts for Ph.D. applicants Up to three representative publications for postdoctoral applicants Examples of relevant code or research products, if applicable Applications will be reviewed beginning on September 01, 2026 and will continue until the positions are filled. For questions, please contact: Mengying Zhang Iowa State University mezhang@iastate.edu |
