Chemical and Physical Metrology for Micro- and Nanoplastics

Due: May 1, 2025

$82,764

Description

This research opportunity addresses the complex and challenging issue of isolating and analyzing micro- and nanoplastics of diverse origin using novel analytical approaches. Specifically, this research will focus on (1) development of laboratory methods to produce controlled-size micro- and nanoplastics; (2) development of field-flow fractionation methods combined with multi-detector online characterization to isolate subpopulations; (3) development of surface chemical and chromatographic approaches to separate subpopulations bas...

Conducted by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine's Fellowships Office since 1954, these programs offer a comprehensive research experience through a rigorous selection process. The programs aim to: 1) Offer promising postdoctoral and senior scientists/engineers the chance to pursue self-directed research aligned with sponsoring laboratories' goals, 2) Enhance comprehensive research efforts of participating laboratories, 3) Provide recent doctoral graduates a platform for focused research collaboration with permanent laboratory staff, and 4) Foster professional growth by providing opportunities to gain skills, experience, and connections with leading scientists, ultimately enhancing career prospects in academia, industry, or government research roles. The programs provide mentorship, access to state-of-the-art facilities, and opportunities to influence government policy.
