The development of novel, non-conventional mechanisms for conducting risk assessments on biocidal active substances
The project will focus on the development of novel, non-conventional methods to assess end points for example, the use of read-across, waiving arguments, quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSAR) and quantitative structure-property relationships (QSPR), and the implementation of control mechanisms in the formulation of biocidal products, and in their end-use. Candidates are expected to have a strong knowledge of the processes involved in building chemical registration dossiers and a good understanding of alternative methods for generating end points. A bias on chemistry and or toxicology would be an advantage.
