The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) is currently seeking candidates with their Bachelor's, Master's, and Doctoral degree's to participate and learn about new approach methodologies for toxicity testing.
As one of the largest research agencies dedicated to using environmental sciences to understand human disease and to improve human health, the NIEHS fosters scientific learning and discovery and provides learning opportunities for students of all levels.
This project, as part of the Division of the National Toxicology Program predictive toxicology effort, seeks to explore advanced technologies and approaches for the next generation of human-relevant safety and toxicity testing. Focus areas include but are not limited to:
What will I be doing?
The participant will learn how to apply their scientific and technical knowledge to advance the interrelated fields of toxicology, chemical safety, and human risk assessment. During the fellowship, the participant will collaborate with cross-disciplinary teams to understand existing regulatory requirements and help bridge the gap between advances in modern science and real-world application to human risk assessment. The participant will be mentored by recognized leaders in the respective field and will take an active role in designing experiments, analyzing and interpreting data, and communicating research findings through publications and presentations at scientific meetings.
Benefits
What is the anticipated start date?
The exact start date will be determined between the mentor and applicant at time of selection. The initial appointment is for one year but may be renewed upon recommendation of NIEHS contingent on the availability of funds.
Nature of the Appointment
Participants will not enter into an employee/employer relationship with ORISE, ORAU, NIH, or any other office or agency. Instead, the participant will be affiliated with ORISE for the administration of the appointment through the ORISE appointment letter and Terms of Appointment.
Have received a Bachelor's, Master's, or Doctoral degree within five years (60 months) of appointment start date, in a relevant field. Current students may apply but must complete their degree before the start of appointment. If the degree has been received more than five years, the applicant must have an academic background and experience in a relevant field and must be seeking to gain new knowledge/experience in order to expand career opportunities or to advance professionally.
