As Austria's largest research and technology organisation for applied research, we are dedicated to make substantial contributions to solving the major challenges of our time, climate change and digitisation. To achieve our goals, we rely on our specific research, development and technology competencies, which are the basis of our commitment to excellence in all areas. With our open culture of innovation and our motivated, international teams, we are working to position AIT as Austria's leading research institution at the highest international level and to make a positive contribution to the economy and society.
Our Center for Health & Bioresources located in Vienna invites applications for a PhD Thesis. In the Center for Health & Bioresources we aim to solve challenges associated with demographic change, resource scarcity and environmental pollution and to develop innovative solutions, that enable early disease detection and support healthy and active aging.
The PhD project is embedded in an EU project that aims at providing more predictive and more ethical tools for addressing regulatory relevant questions and supporting implementation of the REACH and CLP regulations. It will furthermore provide approaches to reshape and align the overall strategy of testing and validation of New Approach Methodologies (NAMs) with future regulation (e.g., REACH 2.0) reducing the need of animal testing.
