Contexte de travail

This work will be carried out in an international and multidisciplinary context, notably within the framework of the H2020 MSCA RISE MERFISH project (see: https://www.merfish.eu/) and the ANR PRCI SeMerAMAZON project (https://anr.fr/Projet-ANR-22-CE34-0020). The recruited candidate will work primarily at IPREM (Institute of Analytical Sciences and Physico-Chemistry for Environment and Materials) located in Pau, in the southwest of France, where he/she will be a member of the Environmental Chemistry and Microbiology Cluster.
The working group has extensive experience in environmental and analytical chemistry, trace metal speciation, stable isotope tracers, and fractionation mechanisms. To achieve the outlined objectives, the project will rely on the unique instrumental facilities of the host laboratory. This platform possesses, among others, the state-of-the-art instruments required for the postdoctoral project (MC-ICP-MS, HPLC/GC-ICPMS, LC-ESI-MS/MS).
