If you’re a Masters degree holder and seeking Fully Funded PhD Programs, Uppsala University, Sweden has several online applications open for PhD programs. Explore the PhD opportunities across diverse research areas and submit your application soon.
1. Fully Funded PhD Position in Evolutionary Genomics
Summary of PhD Program:
We are looking for a PhD student who will study hidden fungal diversity. The project focuses on the Archaeorhizomycetes which, based on environmental DNA data, is a species rich and abundantly occurring class of soil and root associated fungi. The project aims to contribute important basic understanding of species diversity and genomics in this ubiquitous group of fungi. It is also conceptually important for developing protocols for modern fungal taxonomy with eDNA as an important source of data for species discovery and recognition.
Application Deadline: 30.Aug.2024
2. Fully Funded PhD Position in Automatic Control focusing on Data- Driven Methods
Summary of PhD Program:
This project is dedicated to the development and analysis of data-driven methods for decision and control of dynamical systems. It will utilize tools from control theory, estimation theory, and statistical learning, with the aim of generating new ideas that can be applied to a broad range of dynamical systems. The theoretical development will be grounded in key application areas, ensuring the practical relevance of our research in real-world settings.

3. Fully Funded PhD Position in multimodal characterization of magnetic nanomaterials
Summary of PhD Program:
We study the connection between functional properties such as magnetism and adsorption in nanomaterials under the insertion of ions such as lithium or molecules such as PFAS with a number of probes at different length scales. We do this by studying the connection between changes in the crystal structure (WAXS), particle morphology (SAXS), chemical state (ferromagnetic resonance or x-ray absorption) and functional properties (electrochemistry or adsorption) using a multimodal approach when the ions are inserted/removed chemically or electrochemically.
Application Deadline: 30.Aug.2024
4. Fully Funded PhD Position in Molecular Pharmaceutics
Summary of PhD Program:
In this project advanced small scale models (micro- to millilitre scale) of the gastrointestinal tract will be devekoped with the aim to establish methods and technologies that enable absorption profiling of orally administered drugs. A number of starting points have been established in previous 3R directed projects. These are based on microfluidics, 3D printed prototypes for automated assays and technologies where several processes are measured simultaneously to better estimate absorption. In the latter, processes related to dissolution, release, digestion and permeation are explored.
Application Deadline: 15.Aug.2024
5. Fully Funded PhD Position in cancer immunology and immunotherapy
Summary of PhD Program:
A PhD student position is open for a highly motivated candidate interested in cancer immunology and immunotherapy in the research group of Gustav Ullenhag, Department of Immunology, Genetics and Pathology, Uppsala University. The PhD position will be part of the National ATMP (Advanced Therapy Medicinal Product) research school. The PhD project will be performed in close collaboration with the research group of Angelica Loskog. These two research groups have a shared interest in the development of cancer immunotherapies based on immunomodulatory adenoviral vectors. These adenoviral vectors usually carry immunomodulatory transgenes to induce anti-tumoral immune responses and may also have the ability of selective lysis of tumor cells, so called oncolysis.

6. Fully Funded PhD Position in grid connection of renewable energy systems, with a focus on power electronics
Summary of PhD Program:
The integration of renewable energy in the electrical grid is increasing. One key difference for the grid connection of traditional electric power production such as nuclear power and hydropower, that dominate the Swedish grid, and renewable energy, is that the generator can be synchronously connected to the grid. For intermittent energy sources, such as ocean, wind and solar energy, the connection has to be made using as intermediate step with power converters. By grid connecting using power converters, the inertia from the generator is not transmitted to the grid, leading to an electrical grid more sensitive to differences in produced and consumed power, causing frequency fluctuations.

7. Fully Funded PhD Position in Machine Learning focusing on Sequential Decision-Making
Summary of PhD Program:
This project is focused on basic research into theory and methods for sequential decision-making that adapts to the information obtained from systems over time. The aim is to develop new ideas for a broad class of problems in, e.g., adaptive experiment design, sensor fusion, and resource management. The problems will be grounded in applications to ensure that our research is relevant in real-world settings, including batteries, inventory management, power systems, etc.
Application Deadline: 20.Sep.2024
8. Fully Funded PhD Position in computer linguistics within a project focusing on criminal procedure law
Summary of PhD Program:
This doctoral project will be conducted within the framework of the sub-project oral statements. Within this sub-project, e.g. whether automated language analysis or human raters are best at determining whether someone is lying or telling the truth. This includes language technology and scenario-based experiments with e.g. police officers, prosecutors and judges. In addition to this, it is evaluated which features distinguish sincere and lying statements, as well as which signals human assessors use in practice.
