EVISA is keeping you updated with what is going on in speciation analysis. In this section you will find news about the most current research results, about trends, legal issues and informations from manufacturers in the field of speciation analysis. Kelp manufacture contributed to arsenic pollution of remote Scottish islands Given the high concentrations of arsenic in seaweeds, up to 100 mg/kg, researchers from the Plant and Soil Science at the University of Aberdeen investigated the possibility that the kelp industry contributed to the arsenic contamination of these pristine environments.  moreTexas Study Relates Autism to Environmental Mercury The association between environmentally released mercury, special education and autism rates in Texas was investigated using data from the Texas Education Department and the United States Environmental Protection Agency. moreAgilent Technologies Offers New Learning Materials for Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry Agilent Technologies Inc. today announced the availability of a new 86-page Primer on Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) and a web-based video on ICP-MS featuring the Agilent 7500ce ICP-MS. Both items, which are freely accessible on the Agilent Web site, are valuable resources for anyone wanting to understand the principles and capabilities of ICP-MS for trace metals analysis. moreCLICK, WATCH AND LISTEN TO Presentations given at the Isranalytica 2006 CONFERENCE The organizers of the ISRANALYTICA 2006, which took place in Tel Aviv, Israel on January 200, are pleased to bring to your awareness that for the first time in Israel and as far as they know – also worldwide, a virtual tour in the exhibition and the lectures of ISRANALYTICA 2006 are broadcasted free of charge over the internet and are available to those who could not attend the Conference or would like to have a second chance. more |

EVISA provides information about open positions for Ph.D. students, PostDocs and permanent staff in the field of speciation. Looking to fill a vacancy or needing a new career challenge? Either way this service is FREE. Many laboratories and research facilities (from Greenland to Crete) have already found their highly educated stuff through this service by EVISA. If you would like to post an open position here, please contact us at info@speciation.net ! Doctorates Johannes Gutenberg University of Mainz, Germany: Trace analysis of elemental species - Development of methods and applications Johannes Gutenberg University of Mainz, sponsored by the German Research Foundation (DFG) and the State Rheinland-Pfalz, the International Research Training Group (Graduiertenkolleg) „Trace analysis of elemental species: Development of methods and applications“ offers 11 PhD-Grants from October 1, 2005 moreUFZ Halle-Leipzig: - Analytical Chemistry The Department of Analytical Chemistry cooperates in the field of “chemo dynamics“ and invites applications for a Doctoral Fellow in the field of Miniaturized Techniques in Environmental Analytical Chemistry. Analysis and assessment of anthropogenic impact to environmental relevant compartments are performed by the application of different techniques of analytical chemistry. The introduction of microsampling methods allows the distribution and local analysis of trace elements, metalloids and their species in samples of environmental interest. moreSwiss Federal Institute of Aquatic Science and Technology (EAWAG) A four year PhD position in Fe isotope geochemistry in aquatic systems is offered at the Swiss Federal Institute of Aquatic Science and Technology (Eawag). The project is joined with the isotope geochemistry group in ETHZ (Switzerland). The position is available immediately. morePostdoctoral Trent University: Trace metal speciation and analytical method development A position is available immediately for a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at Trent University, Peterborough, Canada. Applicants should have an interest in trace metal speciation and analytical method development, with demonstrated experience with ICP-MS. moreUniversity of Crete: Marie Curie PostDoc A Marie Curie Postdoctoral fellowship is available immediately with our Group at the University of Crete to conduct research into the development and application of advanced analytical chemistry techniques for characterizing novel metal species in biological and environmental samples (metal speciation analysis) and for investigating their interactions with biomolecules. moreNational Cheng kung University, Taiwan: Inorganic Isotopic Lab A post-doctoral position is available in the Inorganic Isotopic Lab at Department of Earth Sciences, National Cheng kung University, Taiwan. The candidates are expected to carry out geochemical and/or environmental projects. moreFrontier Geosciences: Elemental Speciation Specialist Frontier GeoSciences, Inc., seeks an ICP-MS post-doctoral candidate for advanced and novel analytical method development. Primary responsibilities will be for developing hyphenated ICP-MS analysis techniques including customized application and method development for special projects. moreUFZ Leipzig-Halle: Analytical Chemistry The department invites applications for a Postdoctoral Fellow in the field of Analysis of Solid Samples in Environmental Analytical Chemistry. Analysis and assessment of anthropogenic impact to environmental relevant compartments are performed by the application of different techniques of inorganic analytical chemistry. The employment of different analytical techniques allows the determination of trace elements (isotopes), metalloids and their species in solid samples of environmental interest. moreOther Armed Forces Institute of Pathology: Laboratory manager The division of Biophysical Toxicology at the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology is seeking a Laboratory Manager to oversee and maintain the running of their trace metal analysis and vibrational spectroscopy laboratory. moreUniversity of Kansas: Laboratory Technician The (U-Th)/He Laboratory in the Department of Geology at the University of Kansas invites applications for a laboratory manager or technician with experience in geochemistry or inorganic chemistry. The appointment will begin on June 1, 2006, with a later starting date possible. moreAnalytical Chemist There is an open position in the analytical sciences laboratory at the General Electric Global Research Center located in Niskayuna, NY. moreFrontier Geosciences: Senior Scientist/Principal Investigator Frontier GeoSciences, Inc., (FGS) is expanding its applied research program on trace element chemistry in the environment. Recognized internationally as a leader in the analytical chemistry of mercury in natural waters since its inception in 1992 and with one of the leading research programs in the atmospheric chemistry of mercury, FGS is looking to hire two senior or principal scientists with nationally recognized research programs to complement and take advantage of FGS’s core strengths. moreICP-MS Technician or Research Associate/ University of Utah.
