Summary of PhD Program:<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Hard X-ray ptychography is one of the most advanced microscopy techniques to visualize materials in structures in 3D at a spatial resolution better than 100 nm. However, the technique is currently only available at synchrotron facilities, with very limited availability. In this project, we aim to bring hard X-ray ptychography to laboratory facilities. This project is an international collaboration between Ghent University, University College London (UK) and the Diamond Light Source (UK) and brings together different expertise and possibilities for experiments.<\/span><\/p>\n

5. <\/span>Fully Funded PhD Position in Geology<\/span><\/span><\/h1>\n

Summary of PhD Program:<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

You will perform cutting-edge scientific research in the context of the ERC Starting Grant \u201cFLOWSCOPY: Unravelling unsteady fluid flows in porous media with 3D X-ray micro-velocimetry\u201d. Fluid flows in porous materials are a widespread phenomenon, just think of groundwater flow in the subsurface. The behavior of the flow on the large scale, for example how a pollutant spreads in a soil after an environmental disaster, is controlled by how fluids work their way through a maze of minuscule, interconnected pores in the material. Such flows involve complex fluid physics that are currently far from being fully understood. However, there is a major challenge to study this: how do you measure fluid flow in minuscule pores inside a material?<\/span><\/p>\n

Summary of PhD Program:<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

In this project, new techniques will be developed to solve this using high-resolution X-ray CT, based on principles used in hospitals to image patients, but at a hundred times higher resolution. By introducing specially designed particles into the flow and tracking their motion with new computer algorithms, we will be able to measure fluid flows that are representative of realistic processes in the subsurface, leading to better models of groundwater flows, and of how CO2 and hydrogen can be stored in porous rock layers in the subsurface.<\/span><\/p>\n

Summary of PhD Program:<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

The research group Materials Science and Technology-DyMaLab is looking for a PhD researcher to contribute to ongoing research on advanced materials used by the automotive and aeronautical industry. These materials include advanced high strength steels, lightweight alloys, polymer composites, nanocomposites, etc. which might be prone to impact or, more generally, high speed deformation processes. Main aim of the PhD is to obtain an enhanced understanding of the impact-dynamic mechanical properties of materials, including the microstructural factors lying at the origin of the observed behaviour. Understanding these properties will result in a better prediction of high speed forming processes, the crashworthiness of car components and impact incidents in the aeronautical industry.<\/span><\/p>\n

8. <\/span>Fully Funded PhD Position in Information Technology<\/span><\/span><\/h1>\n

Summary of PhD Program:<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

In this PhD you will focus on the combination of neural networks based information extraction and probabilistic reasoning. For advanced and domain-specific information extraction tasks (e.g., based on clinical notes from the ICU), the classical independent extraction of entities and relations from text no longer suffices, even when augmented with the power of large language models. The joint extraction of facts as well as reasoning over them based on expert knowledge, can be expected to lead to improved extraction accuracy. Designing such models is the key goal of this PhD research position.<\/span><\/p>\n

Summary of PhD Program:<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

In this PhD you will focus on designing new conversational AI models, based on recent foundation models, and in a multi-modal context, i.e., targeting use cases in human-robot interactions. The key research question is how state-of-the-art language models (including multi-modal versions) can be leveraged and adapted for specific knowledge-grounded tasks in human-robot communication. One of the target applications, is to support conversations with an educational goal, i.e., a robot as teaching assistant in interaction with students.<\/span><\/p>\n

10. <\/span>Fully Funded PhD Position in Biomedical Molecular Biology<\/span><\/span><\/h1>\n

Summary of PhD Program:<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Glioblastoma remains an aggressive, lethal, hard-to-cure brain tumor. Accumulating evidence points to extensive tumor heterogeneity, as well as plasticity in response to therapy, leading to therapy failure. At the single cell level, this presents with different cell states that can transition into one another upon specific environmental conditions or treatment. A comprehensive understanding of the molecular and regulatory mechanisms underlying therapy-induced plasticity in glioblastoma patients is indispensable for the development of novel, more effective and less toxic treatment modalities. This PhD project is embedded in the context of an interuniversity \u2018Stichting Tegen Kanker\u2019 project that aims to unravel the molecular mechanisms of radiation-induced tumor cell plasticity at single cell resolution.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Lung Research Lab within the Department of Respiratory Medicine at Ghent University Hospital is looking for a driven and passionate researcher to join the team. We are specifically seeking a dedicated PhD student who will be involved in translational research focused on unraveling the pathogenesis of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). COPD affects over 300 million individuals worldwide and claims the lives of more than 3 million people annually, ranking as the third leading cause of death globally. Despite its staggering impact, therapeutic options that effectively slow down disease progression remain elusive, largely due to gaps in our understanding of its underlying mechanisms.<\/span><\/p>\n

13. <\/span>Fully Funded PhD Position in biomedical sciences<\/span><\/span><\/h1>\n

Summary of PhD Program:<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

This position is dedicated to research into pathophysiology of mitochondrial disorders. These are rare disease with a prevalence of 1\/5000 individuals, but often carry a high disease burden. During the two last decades, diagnosing these disorders has become much more easy, partly due to progress of genetic diagnostic techniques. However, there is still much to unravel about pathophysiology and certainly about possible treatments for these diseases. The aim of this PhD project is to establish a zebrafish model for a specific subgroup of mitochondrial disorders, namely aARS2 deficiencies. This involves collaboration with the Zebrafish core facility, led by Professor Paul Coucke.<\/span><\/p>\n

Extracellular vesicles are membrane-enclosed communicative particles released in body fluids that carry cell-type-specific molecular patterns including nucleic acids and proteins. Knowledge on their origin, fate and function in the human body is required to accelerate therapeutic and diagnostic applications but hampered by a plethora of technological pitfalls (Hendrix, Nat Rev Mol Cell Biol, 2021). The Hendrix lab created the EV-TRACK knowledgebase and launched the EV-TRACK coaching tool to stimulate transparency and steer reproducibility (Van Deun et al., Nat Methods, 2017).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Summary of PhD Program:<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Despite increasing efforts from organizations to hire a more diverse workforce, ethnic minorities are still underrepresented in many industries and companies. Prior research on diversity recruitment showed positive effects of pro-diversity statements and showing diversity in pictures. However, if a company is currently not yet ethnically diverse, these diversity cues might come across as inconsistent and dishonest and might actually decrease attraction among ethnic minorities. In this project, we aim to resolve this counterfeit diversity paradox by investigating how diversity cue inconsistency is processed by qualified ethnic minority job seekers and how it can be overcome. To this end, multiple quantitative research methods will be applied (e.g., experiments, experience sampling study).<\/span><\/p>\n
