PhD position in health effects from the exposure to pesticides
Utrecht University
This PhD position will advance our knowledge regarding environmental pesticide exposure and cognition in children. The project does two things: It analyses biomonitoring data of pesticide exposure with tests of brain function of the children. It also examines the full Dutch population to understand risks of pesticide exposure to cognitive development and school functioning in children. Childhood cognitive development shapes health and success later in life, understanding how environmental risk factors alter children's brain function, learning and behaviour matters well beyond childhood.
