Job description

We are seeking a highly motivated Doctoral Researcher to join EIRIS, a research project investigating how endocrine-disrupting chemicals contribute to endometriosis, a common, painful and historically under-researched condition affecting roughly one in ten women. Despite widespread environmental exposure to endocrine disruptive chemicals, their role in female reproductive disease remains poorly understood. EIRIS is among the first to address this question systematically, building the first comprehensive mechanistic map of how everyday chemical exposures may promote the disease. The project sits at the intersection of environmental health, women’s health and next-generation, animal-free toxicology.

Tasks

As Doctoral Researcher, you will play a central role in EIRIS, contributing to both the experimental and data-driven parts of the project. Your work will combine structured evidence synthesis, computational/data-oriented analysis, and hands-on wet-lab experiments:

  • Systematically collecting and curating published evidence on chemical effects in endometriosis into a structured, openly available knowledge base using systematic evidence mapping and language model-assisted approaches
  • Establishing human endometrial cell models and carrying out controlled chemical exposure experiments
  • Generating proteomic and secretomic samples (LC-MS/MS) and performing in vitro assays 
  • Biological interpretation of omics, pathway, clustering and network-analysis results
  • Presenting results at conferences, attending trainings, and contributing to publications
