1. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The project leverages recent methodological advancements in cognitive neuroscience to investigate the neurocognitive basis of flexible switching between multiple languages, focusing on the roles of memory and cognitive control systems. Alternating between languages is a skill extensively trained by early bilinguals and multilinguals. Over the past two decades, a substantial body of research has deepened our understanding of how these abilities are related to memory, context, and cognitive control. Despite this progress, the specific neurocognitive mechanisms that enable the rapid regulation of multiple languages remain poorly understood.

3. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
Methodologically, the project combines qualitative interviews, a national survey, and agent-based modelling to capture how networked, bottom-up innovation processes change existing forestry practices. The MultiForSe project aims at understanding which multifunctional forestry practices are applied today and could be relevant in the future, as well as providing suggestions for policy measures that support the use of alternative forest management.

5. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The synthesis of highest efficiency metal-halide perovskites (MHPs) for solar cell applications is a fine tuned, sensitive and complex process with small processing windows. The complex interaction of solvents, additives, precursors, substrates with intermediates and atmosphere determine the morphology, optoelectronic quality and to some extent the stability of the produced films in an almost “black box” process. A thorough understanding of the synthesis process, its processing windows and how they can be tuned is mandatory for up-scaled production.

6. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The research area is Critical Infrastructure Resilience, which includes understanding, analysing, managing, and reducing risk and vulnerabilities of physical and cyber infrastructures from a cross-sector perspective. This includes aspects of modelling, simulation, data classification, confidentiality concerns, and analysis capability in relation to conceptual areas such as critical infrastructure, complexity, systemic risks, decision making, interdependencies, and cascading effects.

7. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
A considerable part of the research in the division is in the field of nanobiotechnology where we develop new methods to investigate biological systems, or to exploit biomolecules within nanocomponents. The Division is leading a project to develop nanowire-based platforms for rapid analysis of single molecules based on immunofluorescence. The ultimate goal is to detect markers for e.g. cancer directly in samples derived from clinical work without the need for chemical reprocessing with much higher sensitivity than is possible today. This includes biomarker detection from biological fluids and direct cell interrogation using nanowires and nanotubes.
Application Deadline: 15.Aug.2024
8. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The focus of the research is tools and methods used by industry in the food, forestry, and bioenergy sectors to capture and describe their effects on biodiversity. Based on an inventory of such methods in BIOPATH, the candidate will use methods ranging from expert elicitation to elaborate modelling to determine if and how these methods reflect loss of different aspects of biodiversity related to its diverse values and to what extent impact scores will reflect ambitions in industry to reduce their impact. This will include scrutinizing assumptions they build on, scale of impacts, data requirements, and certification of validity. Studies may be theoretical or case studies, e.g. in collaboration with BIOPATH partners. The work should ultimately result in a roadmap to efficient tools for capturing industries’ impact on biodiversity.

10. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The main responsibility for the postdoctoral fellow is to conduct research within the ECO-Syria project together with other project participants. Research tasks will include programmatic analysis of large volumes (big data) time series of vegetation, classification of land use and land cover (LULC) using medium- and high-resolution data, and spatio-temporal analyses of LULC changes, analyzed together with ancillary data, such as nighttime lights and other spatial data. Tasks also include dissemination of results through high-quality publications in international scholarly journals and conference presentations as well as participation in outreach activates. The postdoctoral fellow will also contribute to other relevant research projects at CMES.

11. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
Half of the working time is available for a research line within ATLAS of the candidate’s choosing. The successful candidate should expect to spend roughtly the other half of their time on track reconstruction. ATLAS expects to move track reconstruction entirely to the ACTS (A Common Tracking Software) framework to cope with the intense environment of the HL-LHC. The candidate could expect to help co-supervise PhD students on ATLAS and have the opportunity to supervise masters and bachelors projects.
