Karolinska Institutet invites applications for a Postdoc in toxicokinetic population models as basis for biomonitoring

The Unit of Work Environment Toxicology at the Institute of Environmental Medicine, KI, seeks a Postdoc candidate for development and application of toxicokinetic population models as basis for biomonitoring. A substantial part of the work relates to PBPK model development and computer simulations of the toxicokinetic behavior of biomarkers.

We are looking for a highly motivated candidate with a degree related to engineering or biomedical science and a strong interest in applied mathematical modeling and toxicology. Documented skills in computer programming, mathematics, statistics, toxicology and toxicokinetics/pharmacokinetics and are highly advantageous. Excellent skills in written and spoken English and in communication, as well as an ability to interact socially and scientifically with other researchers and students, are essential. To qualify, the applicant must hold a doctor’s degree or a foreign qualification deemed equivalent to a doctorate. Applicants who have completed their degree no more than three years before the last date for applications should be given priority. Candidates who have completed their degree earlier than this should receive equal priority if special grounds exist. Postgraduates who have yet to graduate may apply if their public defense is scheduled to take place within three months after the application deadline, in which case verification from the Dissertation Committee or equivalent body must be submitted with the application.
