Postdoctoral Opportunity to study the biogeochemistry and biogeochemical impacts of emerging contaminants
The Bernhardt lab at Duke University is seeking a postdoctoral associate with expertise in ecosystem ecology and biogeochemistry to join an interdisciplinary team of researchers examining the fate, transport, and impacts of emerging contaminants in the environment. Successful candidates must have excellent organizational, quantitative, and analytical skills, as well as the desire to work within a highly interdisciplinary environment in collaboration with ecologists, toxicologists, engineers, earth scientists, and chemists. The postdoctoral associate will work closely with Emily Bernhardt (Department of Biology) and Ben Colman (University of Montana) and collaborators throughout the NSF funded Center for the Environmental Implications of Nanotechnology (CEINT) headquartered at Duke University and will interact extensively with the faculty, students and postdocs affiliated with Duke's River Center. Starting salary will be commensurate with experience and accompanied by Duke's competitive benefits package.
