With respect to several new projects starting from 2018, we are currently creating new job vacancies in my environmental group for postdocs (and/or also for senior researchers) with the focus on the "environmental nanotechnologies" (see attachment). If you happen to know anybody who might be interested in this job opportunity, preferably someone you can recommend, I’ll be happy to get such information. Alternatively, if you could post and/or distribute the attached advertisement to different places where there may be good scientists with experience in a similar field, I’ll be grateful.
For the current and the upcoming project, I strongly need to extend our group by hiring highly experienced scientists in the field of environmental chemistry, material science, geochemistry and related fileds.
Another advertisement for postdocs mobility to our research centre is posted at the following link:

Addition of titanium dioxide (TiO2) (nano)particles into photocatalytic paints represents a promising alternative aiming to mineralize gaseous pollutants, such as volatile organic compounds (VOCs) into innocuous species (H2O and CO2). Despite important industrial and economic benefits, some concerns were raised regarding the risks associated with nano-objects and their human and environmental impacts.
Silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) are widely used as biocides, leading to contamination of the environment and possible adverse effects on humans. Recent studies revealed that the cellular response to acute exposure to Ag-NPs differs from the response to chronic exposure, although we currently lack systematic studies comparing responses to different dosing regimens.
Indoor aquatic mesocosms are increasingly used in nanosafety to assess the behavior, fate, and impacts of engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) in aquatic environments using relevant exposure scenarios.
In recent years, nanotechnologies have led to undeniable progress in any domains, such as electronics, materials and medicine. Despite the benefits of such a technology, a careful assessment of the potential risks for Human and Environmental health have to be studied. Assessing exposure and hazard to nanomaterials is a major challenge in the field of environmental sciences.
