Research School for Animal Production and Health (RAPH) wishes to appoint 3 Ph.D. fellows in for 3 years from June 1st 2009 or soon thereafter.
Successful applicants will enrol at the University of Copenhagen, the Ph.D. School of the Faculty of Life Sciences under the auspices of RAPH, (www.raph.life.ku.dk). RAPH administers a special study programme for Ph.D. fellows with research projects within animal production and health.
The 3 Ph.D. fellowships comprise a joint research initiative funded by the Danish Agency for Science, Technology and Innovation, Faculty of Life Sciences, University of Copenhagen and external partners.
The applicant can apply for 1 or more of the 4 research projects outlined below. Job descriptions
With reference to the project manager, the tasks of the Ph.D. fellow primarily are research and development within:
1. Quantitative microbial risk assessment (QMRA) of separated animal slurry applied in agriculture
Animal manure (slurry) is increasingly being separated by various technologies into liquid and solid (fiber) fractions that are then used as fertilizers in agriculture. However, little is known how such treatment affect the occurrence and environmental fate of pathogens present in the different types of animal manure and the associated food safety and public health risks.
This project will taking a starting point in a large multi-disciplinary project called "PATHOS" funded by the Danish Council for Strategic Research (DSF) establish models and quantify the pathogen-associated risks to the environment, foods and humans when different types of slurry is applied as fertilizer in agriculture. Supervision will be provided within biostatistics, microbiology and risk assessment. Qualification requirements
The appointee should have qualifications within at least one of the following areas:
