This opportunity funds research to develop bio-assays quantifying thyroid hormone synthesis and analyze chemical impacts on thyroid function in amphibians. It includes aquatic toxicology experiments, molecular biology, computational modeling, and data analysis to interpret in vitro thyroid disruption assays. The project aims to improve understanding of chemical endocrine disruption and prioritize chemicals affecting aquatic vertebrates using advanced laboratory and computational techniques.
Applicants must be U.S. citizens or Lawful Permanent Residents with a Bachelor's or Master's degree in relevant fields such as Toxicology, Biochemistry, Biology, or related disciplines obtained within the last 5 years.
