Project Title: New Integrated Methodological Approaches for the Assessment of the Safety and Environmental Sustainability of Advanced Nanostructured Materials
The procedure, based on titles and examinations, is called for the award of no. 1 Research Grant for cooperation in research activities, with a duration of 12 months, in the field of Environmental science (SDS BIO/06), for the following activities: evaluation of the toxic effects of new advanced nanomaterials using in vitro and in vivo biological models alternative to the use of mammals (zebrafish); development and application of new nanospecific characterization factors for determining the human and environmental hazard in LCA (Life Cycle Assessment) applications; implementation of quantitative methodologies in the Safe and Sustainable by Design (SSbD) framework for new advanced materials.
The position will be based at the University of Milano-Bicocca (Milan, Italy)
The position is well suited to a recent doctoral graduate with skills and interests in nanosafety and environmental impacts of new advanced materials, to sustain the SSbD framework.
The research is within the EU project INTEGRANO (Multidimensional Integrated Quantitative Approach to Assess Safety and Sustainability of Nanomaterials in Real Case Life Cycle Scenarios Using Nanospecific Impact Categories), HORIZON CL 4 2023 RESILIENCE 01 22 (GA n 101138414).
