Phd Candidate Life Cycle Assessment for a Safe and

Our group is looking for a PhD researcher to carry out research and development in the CLEANPack project. The goal of the CLEANPack project is to unlock advanced mechanical recycling (or more broadly physical recycling methods) as a methodology to allow closed loop recycling of polyolefin based food packaging. CLEANPACK will create a science based selection...

This research project aims to explore such questions with the purpose of contributing to the development of a sustainable normative framework for a safe, just, and morally desirable translational use of (human) induced pluripotent stem cells in regenerative medicine. The insights gathered from this research project are intended to provide recommendations for...

**Job description** The human cornea is a transparent tissue through which light enters the eye. Its innermost layer is composed of a tightly packed layer of corneal endothelial cells (hCEnCs). The density of our hCEnCs decreases with age, and diseases such as Fuchs’ endothelial corneal dystrophy or iatrogenic damage after surgery accelerate their loss,...
