CREAM (Mechanistic Effect Models for Ecological Risk Assessment of Chemicals) is an EC–funded network with partners from nine European countries. The aim of CREAM is to improve ecological risk assessments of chemicals, which is highly relevant for food production and environmental safety, by using mechanistic models that explore the effects of chemicals on individuals and populations.
You will be involved in developing ecological models and accompanying experiments that will be used for model validation. Organisms ranging from aquatic and terrestrial invertebrates to mammals will be the focus of the projects, and approaches will encompass ecotoxicology, population ecology, and species interactions at various spatial scales. All projects have exciting dimensions both in basic research and application. Regular network training events will help you to develop your skills in modelling, statistical and programming methods, ecotoxicology and risk assessment, and complementary skills. Joining CREAM, you will be part of the next generation of ecological modellers with excellent career options in academia, industry, and public authorities.
We are looking for candidates with experience and interest in one or more of the following areas: population ecology, ecotoxicology, ecological risk assessment, modelling, and programming. Further details about the individual projects and participating institutions can be found at www.cream-itn. eu.
Applicants should follow the information and instructions given at http://cream- itn.eu/how- to-apply. Applications should be sent by email to volker.grimm@ ufz.de.
Application Deadline: 23 October 2009
