1. Fully Funded PhD Position in Solid Mechanics, with focus on dislocation dynamics of hydrogen embrittlement in steel<\/span><\/h1>\n

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

Hydrogen Embrittlement refers to the scenario where hydrogen enters metallic materials, interact with the microstructure and degrade the mechanical properties. It poses a significant threat to the safety of engineering structures for hydrogen transport and storage. However, the underlying mechanism of hydrogen embrittlement is still under debate.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

The project is funded by Swedish Research Council and entitled \u201cInterplay between hydrogen, precipitates and dislocation substructures in pipeline steel\u201d. The project aims to improve the safety of hydrogen transport via pipelines, by gaining a solid mechanistic understanding of hydrogen embrittlement in pipeline steels.<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Fully Funded PhD Position in multimodal characterization of magnetic nanomaterials with X-ray and ferromagnetic resonance (MSCA COFUND project PRISMAS)<\/span><\/h1>\n

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

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.<\/span><\/p>\n

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

The project is a part of a larger EU-funded doctoral network (SPIDoc\u2019s, https:\/\/www.ms-spidoc.eu\/). The purpose of the network is to advance virus-related structural biology, where a considerable challenge lies in that the proteins change between different conformations over their life time and that their dynamics are very important for the virus\u2019s life cycle. Using mainly native mass spectrometry, ion mobility, imaging with X-ray free electron lasers, and molecular dynamics simulations, viral particles with be interrogated in the gas phase, that is, taken out of solution, which circumvents a number of difficulties faced in solution-based methods.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

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

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

Global estimates suggest that less than 5% of the true fungal diversity is currently described, largely because the majority of the up to 5 million fungal species on earth have no visible fruiting structures and cannot easily be cultured using established methods. Because the hidden majority of species defy established protocols for species recognition, we cannot effectively communicate about the majority of fungal species, many of which are frequently and abundantly detected in environmental samples. The proposed project uses species hypotheses built on environmental DNA (eDNA) data for targeted high-resolution microscopy and single cell genomics to infer evolutionary history and life cycle dynamics of hitherto undescribed fungal species and lineages.<\/span><\/p>\n

9. <\/span>Fully Funded PhD Position in lymphatic developmental biology<\/span><\/span><\/h1>\n

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

Lymphangiogenesis, the process of lymphatic vessels formation from pre-existing vessels, is marked by the onset of Prox1 expression. Recently we have discovered the induction of Prox1 is a progressive process. This is coupled with bipotential LEC progenitors undergoing a cell division before sprouting from the cardinal vein (CV). We have further teased out that Vegfc signalling is apical to this process and drives cell division and Prox1 expression in lymphatic daughter cells. This work posed a question of how Vegfc signalling and Prox1 transcriptional cascade together coordinate the lymphatic fate. This PhD project will involve dissecting this question using transcriptomics and imaging base approaches in zebrafish.<\/span><\/p>\n

The purpose of the doctoral project is to develop new molecules that can be used for more effective uptake of orally administered drugs, particularly therapeutic peptides. This will be achieved by using various types of cell profiling methods to examine how cells react in different ways to these so-called permeability enhancers and how permeability is affected by this. The data generated will be used in combination with artificial intelligence methods for molecular design in a related project to generate new molecules with tailored properties for increased absorption of therapeutic peptides.<\/span><\/p>\n

15. <\/span>Fully Funded PhD Position in psychology<\/span><\/span><\/h1>\n

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

The PhD student will work with research on the psychology of cybersecurity, primarily by empirically studying cyber-risk judgments. Risk and uncertainty are important factors in cybersecurity; one will never be able to create entirely secure systems because new threats arise at the same rate that new security solutions are developed. By examining the psychological factors that affect cyber-risk judgments we can find ways to facilitate behaviors that minimize risk as much as possible while also maintaining a reasonable balance between risk and benefit.<\/span><\/p>\n

16. <\/span>Fully Funded PhD Position in Field of Diagnostics and Therapy for Neurodegenerative Diseases<\/span><\/span><\/h1>\n

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

The overall goal of the doctoral project is to identify and study proteins whose expression or distribution is altered in neurodegeneration and then generate brain-penetrating antibodies that bind to these proteins. These antibodies will then be used to develop new diagnostics, such as PET and SPECT radioligands, or for therapeutic applications to investigate whether the antibodies affect pathology in models of neurodegenerative diseases. The work thus involves both in vitro work, primarily immunological and histological methods, and in vivo studies in models of neurodegenerative diseases.<\/span><\/p>\n

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

The work will consist of studying, interpreting, analysing and describing fossil material of Devonian tetrapods (early land vertebrates) from Greenland. The material will principally be studied using synchrotron microtomography (a kind of high-resolution 3D x-ray imaging). The PhD student will study these tomographic data, reconstruct and interpret the anatomy of the fossils, and on that basis analyse their interrelationships, probable lifestyles etc. The results will be presented in peer-reviewed scientific journals and at international scientific conferences. In addition to research, the PhD student is expected to do some teaching, usually as a lab assistant. There will be opportunities for fieldwork.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
