ISL Pilot Grant Spotlight: Investigating the Effects of Microplastics on Human Neural Stem Cell Aging
The project, titled “Effects of Microplastics on Human Neural Stem Cell Aging,” addresses an emerging and critical environmental health concern with direct implications for brain aging and longevity.
FSU researchers develop new materials for next-generation X-ray technologies
The materials used to create X-ray detectors can be rigid, expensive and laborious to produce. But new research led by FSU Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry Professor Biwu Ma is creating lower-cost, adaptable materials that could revolutionize X-ray detection technologies.
Bright ideas, hidden pathways: Florida State University researchers discover mechanism for inefficient photoreactions in molecules
Florida State University researchers have discovered a pathway within a certain type of molecule that limits chemical reactions by redirecting light energy. The study could help develop more efficient reactions for pharmaceuticals and other products.

12-month Teaching Faculty I
The Department of Chemistry & Biochemistry at Florida State University invites applications for a full-time, 12-month faculty position to teach General Chemistry and Analytical Chemistry lecture courses beginning Summer 2026. This is a continuing non-tenure track faculty position with opportunities for promotion. Applicants are required to have a PhD or highest-level terminal degree from an accredited institution in Chemistry, Biochemistry, or a closely related field or equivalent qualifications based on professional experience. Applicants must possess a demonstrated specialty or teaching experience with Analytical Chemistry. The successful candidate’s primary responsibilities will include teaching General Chemistry and other undergraduate chemistry courses, with the opportunity to contribute to courses in Analytical Chemistry, depending on departmental needs. This individual will be expected to engage in curriculum development and continuous improvement of instructional materials, as well as provide service to the Department, College, and University.
Candidates should upload application materials—including a CV and a statement of teaching interests and philosophy—to https://jobs.fsu.edu (61601), and should arrange for three letters of recommendation to be sent by email to facultysearch@chem.fsu.edu.
Application review will begin 2/2/2026 and will continue until 4/1/2026.
