<h2>Post-doctoral Fellow - Air Quality Modelling</h2>
</div>
<br>
<div id="text">
<p>The Air Quality Research Division invites
applications for the position of an NSERC Visiting
Fellowship in Canadian Government Laboratories
(Post-Doctoral Fellow) for a one year term with the
possibility of renewal for up to 2 additional years
upon mutual agreement.</p>
<p>The focus of the research will be two-fold: (1) the
effect of mixing state on the heterogeneous
oxidation of organic aerosol compounds and (2) the
effect of metallic aerosol components on organic
aerosol chemistry and associated human health
impacts. The work will involve focused laboratory
studies with the use of flow tubes and/or smog
chambers, and advanced gas and aerosol
instrumentation (HR-ToF-AMS, HR-ToF-CIMS,
HR-ToF-PTR-MS, SMPS). The successful candidate will
work closely with scientists at Environment Canada
and may collaborate with scientists at Health Canada
and academia.</p>
<p>A Ph.D. in chemistry, atmospheric sciences,
environmental engineering, or a related discipline
is required. Demonstrated skills in experimental
atmospheric chemistry/physics are also required.
Experience with advanced gas and aerosol
instrumentation use, such as Aerosol mass
spectrometry (AMS), Proton transfer reaction mass
spectrometry (PTR-MS), Chemical Ionization Mass
spectrometry (CIMS), and SMPS is recommended, but
not essential. Experience with computer programming
(IGOR Pro), or complex data analysis is also highly
desirable.</p>
<p>The successful candidate must have the ability to
work in a team environment and with multiple
collaborators. A demonstrated ability to publish in
the peer-reviewed literature is essential.</p>
<p>Qualified candidates are requested to send their
curriculum vitae, including a full list of
publications, their date of availability and contact
information for 2 references to Dr. John Liggio by
e-mail (<a href="mailto:John.Liggio@canada.ca">John.Liggio@canada.ca</a>).</p>
Successful candidates must be included in the
inventory of Canada's Natural Sciences and Engineering
Research Council (NSERC) Visiting Fellowships in
Canadian Government Laboratories Program prior to
their selection for the position. Applications to the
inventory can be made through the link below, once
selected.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><br>

<p>Review of applications will begin immediately.
However, candidates who anticipate graduating with a
Ph.D. in the next 6-8 months will also be
considered.</p>
<p>To be eligible, the candidate must have obtained a
PhD within the past 5 yrs. Environment and Climate
Change Canada's Air Quality Research Division
studies the chemistry and physics of the atmosphere
as it pertains to a variety of atmospheric pollution
problems.</p>
