[ES_JOBS_NET] Research Scientist, San Francisco Bay Area, CDPH Outdoor Air Quality

[Wagner, Jeff (CDPH-DEODC-EHLB)]

The Environmental Health Laboratory (EHL) at the California Department of Public Health, located in the San Francisco Bay Area, is recruiting for a new Research Scientist.  The position is within EHL's Outdoor Air Quality Section. We are a relatively small, unique research group that focuses on applied measurement research and environmental forensics to identify toxics and their likely sources. Our work deals primarily with airborne particulate matter, but often incorporates measurement of gas-phase pollutants and other matrices including soil, water, biota, building materials, household dust, food, drugs, etc. We are especially interested in candidates with experience and/or interest in microscopy (SEM/EDS, TEM/EDS, FTIR, Raman, and PLM), ICP-MS, GC-MS, air sampling strategies, and portable sensors and samplers for community monitoring projects.   Recent projects include agricultural emissions, windblown dust, wildfires, microplastics, flame retardants, natural occurrences of asbestos, transportation emissions, engineered nanoparticles, and fungal and bacterial spores.
