(10) Postdoctoral Fellowship Position

Postdoc Fellowship Position summary/title: Scientist or PostDoc in cheminformatics

Within TSL, the Environmental Risk Assessment and Management Group (ERAM), is looking for a Scientist or a PostDoc responsible for developing and applying a toolbox for open data on the chemical and material uses in the frame of the ETH Domain project OpenChemUses and the Horizon 2020 project “Zero Pollution of Persistent, Mobile Substances (ZeroPM).” OpenChemUses belongs to the Open Research Data initiative, with the aim to enable and engage the wide scientific and regulatory communities to work towards open FAIR data on the uses of chemicals and materials by developing and disseminating a “big-data” toolbox that address both existing and future use reporting. The ZeroPM project will establish an evidencebased multilevel framework to guide policy, technological innovation, and market incentives to minimize use, emissions and pollution of persistent and mobile substances to the environment. The overall goal of the work performed at Empa is to build databases of chemicals and materials on the global market towards better understanding of their uses and fate in the technosphere. The project implementation will be achieved in close collabora-tion with the project partners, including IBM Research Europe, the Norwegian Geotechnical Institute and the University of Luxembourg.
