We are looking for an individual with a Masters or Bachelors degree in the biological or chemical sciences to fill a position in an aquatic ecology laboratory and an analytical core facility. The ideal candidate would possess analytical chemistry skills and experience, including chromatographic separations and mass spectrometry. Responsibilities for this role include performing established laboratory methods, procedures, and techniques under the general guidance of a senior investigator. Individuals with specific experience in LC-MS analysis of PFAS or other organohalogen compounds are preferred. This should include sample preparation and instrumental analysis methods development as well as routine analysis, data reduction and reporting. Preferred skills include experience with trace analytical laboratory techniques common to environmental and/or food analysis laboratories, working with chemical reagents, data management, efficient organization and time management, meticulous attention to detail, and a working knowledge of computers with proficiency in the Microsoft Office Suite
This person would work in both in Dr. Celia Chen’s lab and in the Trace Element Analysis (TEA) Core at Dartmouth (https://sites.dartmouth.edu/teacore/).

SETAC Aquatic Toxicity Testing Interest Group (ATTIG) Student Presentation Series
Are you an undergraduate or graduate student performing aquatic toxicology research? Are you seeking an opportunity to share your research and sharpen your presentation skills? Whether you are seeking to practice in advance of attending a conference or are funding limited for travel, we have an opportunity for you!
The Society of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry (SETAC) Aquatic Toxicity Testing Interest Group (ATTIG), centered in North America, is seeking to develop a student oral presentation series, optimally with presentations on a quarterly basis with some quarters dedicated to undergraduate presentations if there is sufficient interest. Presentations would follow the same format as at the SETAC North America annual meetings, with 12 minutes for each presentation followed by three minutes for questions, with a total of five presentations during each event. There are also plans to post the presentations on the ATTIG webpage (https://www.setac.org/group/aquatic-toxicity-testing.html).
Following each event, student presenters interested in receiving feedback on their presentations members will receive student presentation evaluation forms completed by members of the SETAC ATTIG Steering Committee. There is no fee to present or participate and there is no requirement to be a SETAC member...but of course we encourage joining SETAC for career development and networking opportunities.
If you are interested, please prepare an abstract (see example at https://www.setac.org/discover-events/global-meetings/setac-north-america-46th-annual-meeting/program/abstract-submission.html), identify if you are an undergraduate or graduate student, and submit via the following Google doc: https://forms.gle/4yJkbx73RZcF7eVc8 .
Based on interest, we will then determine groupings (e.g., undergraduate, graduate, or mixed) and the timing of each presentation event.
Please reach out to Stephen Clark (slclark@pacificecorisk.com) and Lauren Zink (lauren.zink@zoology.ubc.ca) if you have any questions
