9 New Positions at IRAS, Utrecht University, NL. Please send
to possible interested candidates. Thanks for your help.
Dear Colleagues,
Recently, we have successfully obtained several grants to study
potential health effects of occupational, environmental and consumer
exposure to electro magnetic fields. These studies address the
exposure to stray fields from MR systems, RF-EMF from mobile phones,
base stations, WIFI and DECT phones and ELF-EMF exposure from power
lines and consumer products and will focus on several health outcomes
including cancer and neurological disorders. The research is being
funded by the ZonMw National Research Programme on Electromagnetic
Fields and Health and the 7th Research Framework Program of the
European Union. The ZonMw research programme has also funded a chair
in Epidemiology of Health Effects of Electro Magnetic Fields within
IRAS.
The aim of the ZonMw National Research Program is to keep track of new
and existing EMF applications, such as MRI, mobile phone and WIFI use
and to enhance the national knowledge infrastructure in the field of
electromagnetic fields and health. Research projects will be carried
out in extensive collaboration with several national and international
research institutions.
In order to be able to perform the studies within this new, ambitious
and unique research field we are seeking inspired candidates for 6 PhD
research positions, 2 Post Doc position, an assistant professorship
and a data managament position (see attached PDF and links).
We would appreciate if you would be so kind to pass this information
to any potential candidate that you might know that would be
interested in any of these positions.
Warm regards,
Roel Vermeulen
Hans Kromhout
