HEXACOMM
ITN Marie Curie Project (Human EXposure to
Aerosol COntaminants in Modern Microenvironments)
Initial Training for Aerosol Characterization Techniques and Indoor Air
Quality: 12 PhD and 2 Post Doc positions in Indoor Air Quality
Applications are invited for 12 Early Stage Researcher (PhD) and 2 Post Doc
positions in HEXACOMM, an EU-funded Marie Curie Initial Training Network
with opportunities in 8 European countries (Greece, Denmark, UK, Spain,
Czech Republic, Norway, Finland, Cyprus).
The main research goal of HEXACOMM is to apply scientifically –based
modelling and experimental methods to relate concentrations of particulate
matter in the indoor domestic environment to its sources and human exposure
implications. For this purpose the PhD and Post Doc projects will focus on
targeted indoor air quality measurements, source apportionment studies,
micro-environmental modelling, dosimetry modelling and exposure studies. We
offer
● research and training in an exciting European network;
● a highly competitive gross monthly allowance ranging from € 2700 to €
6000, depending on host country and family status;
● secondments to our partners;
● and excellent career-development opportunities.
We seek excellent candidates with a BSc (PhD positions) / PhD (Post Doc
positions) degree (or equivalent) in Meteorology, (Atmospheric) Physics,
Mathematics, Engineering or Biological Sciences. For details of the overall
network and the application process, please contact
lazaridi@mred.tuc.gr. Review of
applications begins on 1st November 2012, and will continue until the
positions are filled.
Researchers may be either EU citizens or from outside the EU, who have spent
less than 12 months in the host country in the last three years (e.g. to be
eligible for positions in the UK, applicants must have spent less than 12
months in the UK over the last 3 years).
