Pharmaceuticals and personal care products are being continuously introduced into the aquatic environment, with little to no relevant data available with respect to their ecological fate and effects. M.S. or Ph.D. research assistantship(s) are available to study the metabolism, bioconcentration and toxicity of selected pharmaceuticals to fish. These positions are available at the University of North Texas located in Denton, TX. Student(s) should ideally be able to start no later than August 1, 2007. Previous experience in environmental analytical chemistry (e.g. LC-MS) or ecotoxicity testing is desirable, but not required. Interested students are encouraged to contact Duane Huggett (dbhuggett @unt.edu or 940-891- 6956) for more information. Duane B. Huggett, Ph.D. Assistant Professor Department of Biology Institute of Applied Sciences University of North Texas Denton, TX 76208 (T) 940-891-6956
