Toxicologist
About You
You are passionate about a career in health sciences to build upon your academic foundation in toxicology, pharmacology, biology, environmental health, or public health. You are comfortable with the principles and methods of toxicological studies but are eager to explore the application of this knowledge to characterize the potential human health risks of exposure to a variety of substances. You are a creative problem-solver who seeks innovative approaches to resolving complex matters, such as assessment of emerging contaminants, consumer product safety, regulatory toxicology, and toxicity benchmark derivation. You are looking for a place where your ideas are taken seriously. A lifelong learner, you want to keep growing intellectually and professionally. Collaborating with colleagues with diverse expertise is exciting for you, and you are also comfortable working independently. Quality management and integrity are among your strongest principles.
