PhD: Metabolomics of Endocrine Disruptors, Immune-Related Health
3 maanden geleden
Like to help us to understand how endocrine disruptors affect human health? A PhD position at our group within Utrecht University might be just for you
Would you like to understand how endocrine disruptors affect human health? Are you passionate about metabolomics? Then a PhD position at the One Health Chemical group of the Institute for Risk Assessment Sciences (IRAS) might be just for you We are offering an exciting PhD position to investigate the health effects of endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) on multimorbidity, with a focus on metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), metabolic and immune related diseases.
Wat ga je doen?In this project you will combine two approaches to better understand through which mechanisms exposure to EDCs impacts health:
- You will integrate High-Resolution Mass Spectrometry (HRMS)- based measurements of EDCs, biological effects, MASLD, and disease phenotypes (Obesity, Type-2-diabetes) collected in European population studies.
- You will apply multivariate statistical models and AI-assisted knowledge graphs to guide the interpretation of the HRMS data.
Your position will be nested within two large-scale European projects: EDC-MASLD and ENDOMIX .
As a PhD student, you will publish your work's findings as papers in peer-reviewed scientific journals. These papers will form the basis of your PhD thesis. In addition to the (international) partners within the EDC projects, you will collaborate closely with PhD students within the toxicology and epidemiology groups at IRAS.
Wat breng je mee?As the ideal candidate for this position, you feel at ease working in a multidisciplinary environment and are a team player. You are enthusiastic, ambitious, independent thinker, and have excellent writing skills. The nature of the position allows for diverse backgrounds, which include biology, chemistry, chemometrics, epidemiology, bioinformatics, statistics, computational epidemiology, or a related discipline. Affinity with OMICs data analysis is valued, and any experience with Large Language Models is considered valuable. You have experience with programming (e.g. R, Matlab, Python). Most importantly: you are willing to learn.
Candidates with the following skills are especially encouraged to apply:
- Experience in statistical analyses (e.g. R, Matlab, Python);
- Some experience with (OMICs) data analysis and/or Chemometrics and/or machine-learning, or willing to learn;
- A strong motivation to work in a multidisciplinary international research team;
- Willing to learn about large language models;
- Excellent collaboration and communication skills (written and spoken).
- A position (1.0 fte) for four years in an international working environment.
- A gross monthly salary ranging from €2,770 in the first year to €3,539 in the fourth year in the case of full-time employment (salary scale P under the Collective Labour Agreement for Dutch Universities (CAO NU);
- 8% holiday pay and 8.3% year-end bonus;
- a pension scheme, partially paid parental leave and flexible terms of employment based on the CAO NU.
