Stark forskning och attraktiva utbildningar lockar forskare och studenter från hela världen. Med ny kunskap och nya perspektiv bidrar Göteborgs universitet till en bättre framtid.Doktorandplats i medicinsk vetenskap

Titel på projektet: Ultrakänslig analys av cirkulerande DNA och RNA hos barn med cancer

Avdelningen för pediatrik finns vid Institutionen för kliniska vetenskaper vid den Medicinska fakulteten Sahlgrenska akademin vid Göteborgs universitet.  

Universitetsgemensam information om vad det innebär att vara doktorand vid Göteborgs universitet kan du finna på universitetets doktorandsidor https://www.gu.se/utbildning-till-att-bli-forskare  

Arbetsuppgifter   
Forskarutbildning i medicinsk vetenskap består i att genomföra ett vetenskapligt projekt och att delta i kurser på forskarnivå om minst 30 högskolepoäng. Utbildningen avslutas med att doktoranden skriver en vetenskaplig sammanläggningsavhandling eller en monografi motsvarande minst 120 högskolepoäng. För mer information om forskarutbildning vid Sahlgrenska akademin se https://www.gu.se/sahlgrenska-akademin/var-forskarutbildning

Projekt: Cirkulerande tumör-DNA (ctDNA) och -RNA (ctRNA) är fragmenterat genetiskt material som kontinuerligt läcker ut till blodet från tumörceller hos patienter med cancer. Eftersom det innehåller genetiska förändringar som är specifika för patientens cancerceller kan ctDNA och ctRNA kvantifieras med hjälp av riktad sekvensering och användas som ett mått på hur mycket cancer som finns kvar i kroppen under och efter behandlingen. Det övergripande målet med detta doktorandprojekt är att undersöka potentialen för patientspecifik ctDNA-analys som markör för sjukdomsbörda, och att testa om longitudinell ctRNA-analys kan öka vår kunskap om mekanismer för resistensutveckling under behandlingen av barn med olika tumörsjukdomar.

Vi kommer att analysera blodprover insamlade vid olika tidpunkter innan, under och efter behandlingen av barn med maligna tumörer. Vi utvecklar patientspecifika och högkänsliga mätmetoder för att ta fram bästa möjliga mått på tumörbörda och för att utreda mekanismer för behandlingsresistens. Resultaten från våra analyser kommer att jämföras med klinisk information om behandlingseffekt och sjukdomsåterfall. Om denna metod visar sig vara framgångsrik kan den användas för att ge vägledning vid behandlingsbeslut, vilket kan bidra till ökad överlevnad och minskade biverkningar hos barn som behandlas för cancer. Det kan också minska behovet av mer invasiva och potentiellt skadliga metoder för att övervaka sjukdomsbördan, såsom upprepade röntgenundersökningar. 

Det är önskvärt att sökande har dokumenterad erfarenhet inom cirkulerande tumör-DNA, metodkunskap inom DNA-extraktion från plasma, PCR-primerdesign och målriktad sekvensering. Stor vikt läggs vid personliga egenskaper såsom engagemang, initiativ- och samarbetsförmåga.

Universitetsgemensam information om vad det innebär att vara doktorand vid Göteborgs universitet kan du finna på universitetets doktorandsidor: https://www.gu.se/utbildning-till-att-bli-forskare

Arbetsuppgifter   
De två doktoranderna kommer att ingå i ett projekt som undersöker potentialen att förbättra temperaturrekonstruktioner i både de norra och södra hemisfärerna genom att använda kvantitativ vedanatomi från trädens årsringar. Enligt tidigare rekonstruktioner baserade på naturliga arkiv såsom iskärnor, sjösediment och årsringar verkar de södra och norra hemisfärernas klimatvariationer skilja sig åt avsevärt de senaste årtusendena. Detta stämmer inte överens med hur klimatmodeller karaktäriserar samma tidsperiod, då de indikerar att klimathistorierna är förhållandevis lika, främst synkroniserade av stora vulkanutbrott och förhöjda halter av koldioxid. Med de stora framstegen och den observerade nyttan med kvantitativ vedanatomi i åtanke är syftet att bygga upp boreala och australa nätverk av sådan data från tidigare provtagna och nyprovtagna träd som växer i extratropiska regioner för att undersöka om det går att reda ut denna diskrepans.

Doktoranderna kommer att jobba tillsammans med ett team av postdoktorer, tekniker och doktorander med en övergripande analys av globala temperaturvariationer relevant för de senaste tvåtusen åren, men främst ansvara för regionala och lokala dataprodukter. De kommer att delta i fältarbete (ibland till avlägsna platser), provpreprering, dataproduktion, och dataanalyser samt publicering av vetenskapliga artiklar.

Autonomous cyber-physical systems (ACPS) have great potential to improve our ways of life, increasing mobility, cutting costs, and saving lives. Considering the complexity of the environments these systems operate in, ACPS increasingly rely on data-driven learning-enabled components to perform a variety of challenging decision-making tasks. While indispensable for autonomy, learning-enabled components are unpredictable, e.g., unanticipated changes in the environment of the ACPS may cause a neural network to produce faulty outcomes that could endanger the safety of the system. To assure the safe and reliable operation of ACPS, we need to have a comprehensive understanding of the behavior of the underlying components and capture the conditions of the environment in which these components will be trusted to behave correctly.

Project description
The goal of this PhD project is to develop techniques for the design and verification of assured ACPS with a focus on runtime assurance. You will develop theory and tools for the construction of runtime monitors that capture under what conditions an ACPS is guaranteed to maintain safety. A key challenge in developing such monitors is to handle noisy, missing, or delayed data. Of particular interest is the investigation of compositional methods for constructing runtime monitors. The candidate will build on the latest advances in formal methods and learning theory, to develop methods that allow for building monitors with formal guarantees on their correctness and reliability.

Projekt: Astma är en vanligt förekommande kroniskt inflammatorisk sjukdom som drabbar 8% av befolkningen i Sverige. Inflammatoriska signaler i lungan driver utvecklingen av bägarceller som producerar mukus (slem) i luftrören. Mukus utgör ett grundläggande försvarssystem som fångar upp partiklar och mikrober i inandningsluften för att transporterar ut det ur lungan. Vid lungsjukdomar såsom astma överproduceras mukus vilket kan leda till att luftrören täpps till vilket förhindrar passagen av luft. Ökning av lungmukus har länge betraktats som ett centralt fenomen vid astma men trots det är det inte klarlagt hur mukus påverkar sjukdomsförloppet vid astma utöver luftvägsobstruktion. Mer specifikt, hur molekylära förändringar i mukus och mukus-producerande celler påverkar immunförsvaret i lungan, vilket inkluderar reaktioner mot luftburna allergen, är oklart.

Målet med projektet är att identifiera signalvägar som reglerar mukusproduktion i bägarceller och bestämma hur förändringar i mukus påverkar immunförsvaret i lungan. Cellkulturer av luftvägsepitel, experimentella musmodeller av astma och kliniska luftvägsprover kommer att användas. 

Det är önskvärt att sökanden har dokumenterad praktisk erfarenhet av arbete i laboratorium. Erfarenhet av arbete med cellkulturer, musmodeller, flödescytometri och/eller analyser av RNA och proteiner med molekylärbiologiska tekniker är en fördel. Goda kunskaper i engelska, i tal och skrift, är nödvändiga. Sökanden förväntas kunna arbeta självständigt, samt att samarbeta väl med andra forskare inom ett större team. Vi lägger stor vikt vid personlig lämplighet med avseende på egenskaper såsom att vara strukturerad, noggrann och ha problemlösande analysförmåga. 

Forskarutbildning omfattar fyra års heltidsstudier och leder fram till en doktorsexamen.?Inom ramen för din doktorandanställning kan du ha institutionstjänstgöring i en omfattning av max 20 % av heltid fördelat under hela utbildningstiden vilket i så fall genererar motsvarande förlängning av utbildningstiden.

Titel på projektet: Prediktion och prevention av neurovaskulär sjukdom hos extremt för tidigt födda barn

Universitetsgemensam information om vad det innebär att vara doktorand vid Göteborgs universitet kan du finna på universitetets doktorandsidor https://www.gu.se/utbildning-till-att-bli-forskare  

Arbetsuppgifter   
Utbildning i medicinsk vetenskap består i att genomföra ett vetenskapligt projekt och att delta i kurser på forskarnivå om minst 30 högskolepoäng. Utbildningen avslutas med att doktoranden skriver en vetenskaplig sammanläggningsavhandling eller en monografi motsvarande minst 120 högskolepoäng. För mer information om utbildning på forskarnivå vid Sahlgrenska akademin se https://www.gu.se/sahlgrenska-akademin/var-forskarutbildning

Projekt: Ungefär 350 barn föds extremt för tidigt (dvs. före graviditetsvecka 28) i Sverige varje år. Även om överlevnaden i denna grupp har förbättrats avsevärt under de senaste årtiondena, är förekomsten av prematuritetsrelaterad sjuklighet som påverkar nervsystemet, andningsorganen, hjärt-kärlsystemet och mag-tarmsystemet fortfarande hög. Ett sådant tillstånd är prematuritetsretinopati (ROP), en neurovaskulär ögonsjukdom som är starkt kopplad till sämre neurologiskt långtidsutfall. Tidig identifiering av barn som löper risk för ROP, och därmed onormal neurovaskulär utveckling, skulle möjliggöra skräddarsydda interventioner för att stödja normal utveckling och förbättra livskvaliteten.

Detta projekt syftar till att förbättra vår förmåga att tidigt identifiera barn med risk för neurovaskulär sjukdom och att fördjupa vår förståelse för de molekylära mekanismer som är involverade. Dessutom kommer projektet att utvärdera de molekylära effekterna av en ny terapi utformad för att främja normal neurovaskulär utveckling hos för tidigt födda barn.

För detta ändamål kommer doktoranden att använda neonatal ”omics”-data (inklusive transkriptomik, proteomik, metabolomik och mikrobiom) som samlats in från extremt för tidigt födda barn, och relatera dessa till neurovaskulär sjukdom, inklusive ROP. De molekylära data kommer från både retrospektiva och prospektiva studier. Doktoranden kommer att använda en bioinformatisk ansats för att tyda de molekylära mönster och mekanismer som driver onormal neurovaskulär utveckling hos extremt för tidigt födda barn, för att slutligen identifiera potentiella biomarkörer och terapeutiska mål. 

Vi söker dig som har tidigare erfarenhet av forskning kring för tidigt födda barn, särskilt gällande analys av ”omics”-data från kliniska prover. Dokumenterad erfarenhet av statistisk analys, datavisualisering och programmering i R (eller ett motsvarande språk) är meriterande.  

Forskarutbildning omfattar fyra års heltidsstudier och leder fram till en doktorsexamen.?Inom ramen för din doktorandanställning kan du ha institutionstjänstgöring i en omfattning av max 20 % av heltid fördelat under hela utbildningstiden vilket i så fall genererar motsvarande förlängning av utbildningstiden. Institutionstjänstgöring omfattar vanligtvis undervisning på grundnivå och avancerad nivå, men även forskning och administration kan ingå.      

Behörighet   
För tillträde till forskarutbildning på forskarnivå krävs grundläggande och i förekommande fall den särskilda behörighet som är fastställd i den allmänna studieplanen för forskarutbildningsämnet.

The Antibiotic Research Group led by Associate Professor Michaela Wenzel is looking to hire two PhD students to work on a project on the AI-assisted discovery and characterization of peptides effective against the mycolic acid layer of mycobacteria, in particular Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

Information about the project and division
In a joint project, two PhD students will explore newly discovered peptides, so-called MAPPs (mycolic acid layer-permeabilizing peptides). These peptides are able to inactivate the outer layer of mycobacteria, the causative agents of life-threatening diseases like tuberculosis and leprosy. This layer, which consists of mycolic acids (hence called mycolic acid layer), makes mycobacteria extremely impermeable to drugs, precluding the use of the majority of antibiotics. MAPPs are a new strategy to strip mycobacteria off this protective coat and open up applications of drugs that would otherwise never work against these deadly pathogens. Moreover, MAPPs display selectivity for mycobacteria over other types of bacteria, promising increased efficacy and significantly lower side effects for patients and their microbiome. The project comprises the AI-assisted discovery and design, screening, mode of action analysis, and pre-clinical characterization of MAPPs.

The Antibiotic Research Group is embedded in the Division of Chemical Biology, providing a dymanic research environment that is home to several young and active research groups that work in biomolecules and their functions in cellular environments. Sharing a common goal to address urgent challenges related to human health, the division comprises a broad expertise ranging from single molecule biophysics to cellular and organismal biology. The division provides access to a cutting-edge techniques and instrumentation, e.g., diverse advanced microscopy techniques, nanotechnology, and protein and membrane biophysics.

Main responsibilities
One PhD position will combine dry-lab work involving artificial intelligence and iterative machine learning models with microbiological wet lab work. The second PhD position is planned to be wholly wet lab-based with a focus on microbiology and membrane biophysics. The project involves AI/ML, in silico peptide analysis, robotics-assisted compound screening , fluorescence microscopy and spectroscopy, electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, as well as diverse microbiological, biochemical, and biophysical techniques.

While the two PhD projects will be distinct, collaboration within the framework of the overarching project and the mutual exchange of ideas, skills, and expertise are firmly expected. The exact distribution of tasks between the positions, including the ratio of dry and wet lab work, is subject to discussion based on the skills and aspirations of the successful applicants.

In addition to performing their own research, the successful candidates are expected to participate in the supervision of Bachelor and Master theses and take on responsibilities in laboratory and instrument management. PhD students may also participate in course teaching.

Qualifications
The successful candidates must hold (or be close to the completion of) a Master of Science or equivalent degree in a relevant discipline (e.g., Biology, Biochemistry, Biomedicine). A degree in a related discipline (e.g., Chemistry, Bioinformatics, Data Science) is eligible, if the course and/or thesis work is related or clearly applicable to biological/biomedical research.

Hands-on experience in either microbiology, AI/ML, drug discovery/design, or membrane biology/biophysics is required. Hands-on experience in more than one of these fields is ideal but not mandatory.
Excellent command of the English language in both oral and written communication is required. Swedish language skills are not necessary. Chalmers offers voluntary Swedish courses for PhD students.

Contract terms
Full-time temporary employment. The position is limited to a maximum of five years.
Starting dates are negotiable but the positions should be started under 2025.

An airborne multi-static radar (AMR) system is a system that includes multiple transmitters and receivers on separated airborne platforms. As a PhD student in signal processing at the department of Electrical Engineering, you will contribute to the knowledge about possibilities, solutions and limitations for AMR systems.

Project overview
Signal processing for radar systems is in the intersection of physical modeling, multidimensional statistics, and linear algebra. Future radar systems will include a network of geometrically separate nodes where some nodes are active (they send out radio waves) and others are passive (listen to the radio waves) or nodes that are both active and passive. The goal of a radar system is to sense the environment and detect and track all interesting objects by operating the passive and active nodes in an efficient way. This PhD project is directed towards signal processing for airborne radar systems where the passive and active nodes are placed on separate flying platforms known as a bistatic (for two nodes) or a multistatic (for more than two nodes) radar setup. In the project we aim to develop efficient algorithms that maximize the information gain about the environment that is probed and sensed by the radar system.

Information about the division and the department
The PhD position is placed in the Signal Processing Group. The research project will be performed in collaboration with researchers from industry. The project is part of a wider focus on radar systems at Chalmers and you will have the possibility to interact and collaborate with PhD students and researchers from other radar projects.

The Signal Processing Group conducts research on a broad range of topics related to the physics-based processing of sensor signals, the fusion of data from multiple sources, system identification as well as the automatic learning from big data. The research focuses on both the fundamentals of physics modeling of signals and the fundamentals of signal processing, as well as the applications of the methods to relevant problems. Several research topics are undertaken in collaboration with the industry and government organizations.

Main responsibilities
Your major responsibility is to pursue research in line with the project, publish, and present scientific articles, and take part in discussions. As part of your PhD activities, you will receive further education by courses relevant for your research, research project, signal processing in a wide sense and your future career. You will also be expected to participate in teaching activities in relevant subjects.

Titel på projektet: Epilepsi och intracerebral blödning: epidemiologi, behandling och prognos

Universitetsgemensam information om vad det innebär att vara doktorand vid Göteborgs universitet kan du finna på universitetets doktorandsidor https://www.gu.se/utbildning-till-att-bli-forskare  

Arbetsuppgifter   
Utbildning i medicinsk vetenskap består i att genomföra ett vetenskapligt projekt och att delta i kurser på forskarnivå om minst 30 högskolepoäng. Utbildningen avslutas med att doktoranden skriver en vetenskaplig sammanläggningsavhandling eller en monografi motsvarande minst 120 högskolepoäng. För mer information om utbildning på forskarnivå vid Sahlgrenska akademin se https://www.gu.se/sahlgrenska-akademin/var-forskarutbildning

Projekt: Det finns dubbelriktade samband mellan epilepsi och cerebrovaskulär sjukdom. Intracerebral blödning är den strokeform som mest sannolikt orsakar epilepsi, kortikal lokalisation, storlek och kramper vid insjuknande i stroke verkar vara framträdande riskfaktorer. Vi har tidigare studerat epilepsi efter hjärnblödning med hjälp av svenska registerdata och funnit att den kumulativa risken för poststrokeepilepsi efter hjärnblödning är cirka 13 procent. Omvänt verkar risken för hjärnblödning öka efter epilepsidiagnos.

Detta doktorandprojekt kommer att studera sambandet mellan epilepsi och hjärnblödning, från epidemiologiska samband till molekylära markörer för vaskulär risk. Projektet kommer att baseras på registerdata från två pågående projekt; en om rehabilitering efter stroke och en om långtidsprognos av epilepsi. I korthet används registerdata från Socialstyrelsen och Riksstroke för att identifiera personer med epilepsi efter stroke som sedan följs prospektivt med avseende på risk för epilepsi, svårbehandlad epilepsi, rehabilitering och död. Den höga upplösningen av svenska registerdata möjliggör en mycket detaljerad uppföljning med minimalt bortfall. Dessutom kommer vi att använda proteomik på plasma från personer med epilepsi för att studera om markörer för vaskulär risk kan upptäckas tidigt och varierar med epilepsibehandling.

Det är önskvärt att sökande har erfarenhet av epilepsiforskning och har arbetat eller studerat i nära samarbete med sjukvård inom neurologi eller neurorehabilitering. Dokumenterad erfarenhet av statistsik analys inklusive programmering i tex Matlab, R, SPSS, Stata eller motsvarande är meriterande.

Connected and Automated Vehicles (CAVs) and Electric Vehicles (EVs) necessitate corresponding updates in road infrastructure to accommodate the new changes for future. The shift to connected automation and electrification will alter the traffic distribution, spatiotemporal vehicle loads and vehicle forces on road segments, and consequently impact road systems in terms of degradation patterns, maintenance needs and pavement design. Furthermore, vehicle and driving characteristics of CAVs and EVs demand specific road infrastructural adaptations in road alignment and roadside infrastructure. The changes introduced by CAVs and EVs in spatiotemporal vehicle load distribution, road degradation patterns, maintenance needs, road alignment, and roadside infrastructure requirements remain underexplored, particularly in Swedish and Nordic contexts. This position aims to conduct comprehensive research to understand how transport automation and electrification will impact road infrastructure and to develop strategies to address the challenges and opportunities.

The research within the position will be interdisciplinary work combining road engineering, traffic engineering and data analytics. Specific focus are on advancing the below research points: 1) Impacts of transport automation and electrification on traffic flow patterns, road degradation patterns, maintenance and life-cycle performances of different types of roads; 2) Changes of transport automation and electrification bring to road alignment design and roadside infrastructure.

The main purpose of this project is to develop new biobased surfactants using sustainable raw materials as an alternative to conventional petrochemical-derived surfactants. Since most surfactants today are synthesized from fossil-based feedstocks, transitioning to biobased alternatives could significantly reduce environmental impact and reliance on non-renewable resources. However, despite major advancements in the field, biobased surfactants often face challenges in achieving the same performance as their synthetic counterparts, particularly in terms of surface activity, stability, and efficiency in formulations. To overcome these limitations, novel synthesis strategies must be developed to enhance the functionality of biobased surfactants, ensuring they exhibit high interfacial activity, stability, and compatibility with industrial applications.

The position is part of a large EU project SurfToGreen where you will have the opportunity to interact with world-class researchers in a multidisciplinary environment.

Project overview
The position will be located at the Department of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering in the Bordes Research Group, which has a long experience of research on surfactant. In recent years there has been a particular emphasis on different classes of amphiphilic substances: amino acid-based surfactants and switchable/cleavable surfactants. The amino acid-based amphiphiles constitute a class of environmentally benign surfactants. They are based on natural starting materials, they are rapidly biodegradable and have low aquatic toxicity, and they are mild to the skin.

Cleavable surfactants are also environmentally friendly in the sense that they have a function enabling better recyclability. The work on environmentally friendly surfactant now focuses on the use of new building blocks, and this project has a strong focus on the correlation between new biobased surfactant and their properties.

Information about the division and the department
The division of Applied Chemistry belongs to the Department of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering and gathers about 90 researchers who work mainly with surface chemistry, polymers and catalysis, in different sub-units. The research carried out at Applied Chemistry focuses on energy, material design, nanotechnology and catalysis, and surfactant chemistry with a strong emphasis on novel surfactants and investigations of surfactant-based formulations such as microemulsions or emulsions.

Main responsibilities
The main responsibility of the PhD candidate will be to pursue his/her doctoral degree by completing Chalmers requirements and by carrying out the research related to the development of methodologies to synthesize surfactant using biobased building blocks.

As a PhD student, the candidate will have to take care of others duties (approx. 10% of your time, mandatory, including teaching). Communication of the results of the work at conferences and in peer-reviewed journals is also expected.

Qualifications
To qualify to this position the candidate must hold a Master degree in chemistry or chemical engineering or equivalent and have experience in studies related to surface chemistry. In addition, a general knowledge of spectroscopy and of the techniques related to the study of surface properties constitutes a strong asset. 

Furthermore, the candidate should appreciate to work experimentally and also with theoretical tools from the perspective of physical chemistry.

The position requires sound verbal and written communication skills in English. If Swedish is not your native language, Chalmers offers Swedish courses.

How can miniaturized implantable devices with electrodes and sensors can help restore nerve function after spinal cord injury through electrical signals? This research question is the focus of the current PhD position. 

Project overview
The project is focused on finding and developing materials and microfabrication processes that makes such spinal implants possible, and exploring the concept in international research collaborations.

Information about the division and the department
Our team specializes in researching neurotechnology and bioelectronic systems. Within the Department of Microtechnology and Nanoscience at Chalmers, we develop processes to fabricate these systems often on micro- and nano-scale, we build bench test environments to validate functionality, and biological tests where we investigate how our concepts can contribute to a broad range of applications within neuroscience, therapy, and clinical research. Our work is highly interdisciplinary with our primary focus being to build the best possible technological system to solve a specific application challenge.

Spinal cord injuries disrupt the communication between the brain and body often leading to life-long disability. One of our research goals is to shape technology for contacting and reconnecting neural fibers within the spinal cord after injury. For this our bioelectronic microtechnology team cooperates closely with experts in Auckland (New Zealand), and Alberta (Canada) to explore how our technology can contribute to spinal cord repair and therapy.

Main responsibilities
In the project you will contribute to new implants that can interact with the spinal cord and provide electrical stimulation. Together with the Auckland team, you will study how direct current promotes tissue regeneration after injury, by guiding outgrowth of nerve fibres. Together with the Alberta team you will study how electrical stimulation can control muscle movements and so restore movement. Your role is to explore possible materials and manufacturing processes that bring these implants stability, functionality, and biocompatibility. The role demands close exchange with both teams.

Range anxiety and long charging times are challenges for electric vehicle (EV) users, but these challenges can be alleviated by user behavioral changes. Trip-planning tools and event-triggered automated charging behavior can be part of the solution to mitigate these challenges, and they rely on accurate predictions of the remaining possible driving range.

The project aims to analyze algorithms for predicting the remaining driving range of EVs and suggest ways to improve the current state of the art. The idea is to develop a model-based predictive strategy to estimate the remaining driving range. The prediction model should consider vehicle design parameters, driving style characteristics, road topology, and real-time traffic and weather conditions. It builds upon results from several projects performed by the research group to characterize the vehicle's motion resistance and user characteristics.

Information about the division and department
At the Mechatronics Group of the Department of Electrical Engineering, we are engaged in both fundamental and applied research related to intelligent transportation systems.
Our research in transportation concerns estimation, control and validation for systems guiding the vehicle, ie self-driving and active safety functionality, as well as propulsion, which mainly focus on electromobility related problems. Research problems range from aspects for an individual vehicle to traffic flow aspects such as collaborative algorithms for smoother traffic in intersections.

Main responsibilities
The appointment offers great opportunities to qualify for further research positions within academia or industry. A monthly salary is paid. There are no tuition fees for PhD studies at Chalmers, so the postdoc associate can take classes. The postdoctor's major responsibilities are to elaborate new methods, partly together other researchers and industry partners, especial within the companies within the Swedish Electromobility Center (SEC) and publish and present them, and be part of proposal writing.

Titel på projektet: Karakterisering och identifiering av nya prognostiska och prediktiva biomarkörer för borderline serösa äggstockstumörer

Avdelningen för onkologi finns vid Institutionen för kliniska vetenskaper vid den Medicinska fakulteten Sahlgrenska akademin vid Göteborgs universitet.  

Universitetsgemensam information om vad det innebär att vara doktorand vid Göteborgs universitet kan du finna på universitetets doktorandsidor https://www.gu.se/utbildning-till-att-bli-forskare  

Arbetsuppgifter   
Forskarutbildning i medicinsk vetenskap består i att genomföra ett vetenskapligt projekt och att delta i kurser på forskarnivå om minst 30 högskolepoäng. Utbildningen avslutas med att doktoranden skriver en vetenskaplig sammanläggningsavhandling eller en monografi motsvarande minst 120 högskolepoäng. För mer information om utbildning på forskarnivå vid Sahlgrenska akademin se https://www.gu.se/sahlgrenska-akademin/var-forskarutbildning

Huvudsyftet med detta doktorandprojekt är att identifiera biomarkörer som kan användas för tidig upptäckt, riskstratifiering och potentiell terapeutisk målstyrning vid borderline serösa äggstockstumörer (BOTs). BOTs utgör en distinkt undergrupp av ovarial cancer och kännetecknas av ett intermediärt beteende mellan benigna och maligna äggstockstumörer. Till skillnad från invasiv ovarial cancer (OC) har BOTs en signifikant bättre prognos och saknar vanligtvis stromal invasion, men de kan i vissa fall återkomma eller utvecklas till invasiv sjukdom. BOTs delas huvudsakligen in i serösa och mucinösa histotyper, där varje typ har olika kliniska presentationer, molekylära profiler och prognostiska utfall. Dessa tumörer utgör 10–20 % av de epiteliala ovarialtumörerna och förekommer generellt hos yngre patienter jämfört med OC. Trots deras relativt gynnsamma prognos finns ett fortsatt behov av bättre förståelse för de genetiska och epigenetiska förändringar som driver BOT-utveckling och progression. Serösa BOTs klassificeras i fyra undergrupper baserat på deras kliniska och histopatologiska egenskaper: (1)Tumörer utan extraovariell spridning, (2)Tumörer med icke-invasiva peritoneala implantat, både epiteliala och desmoplastiska implantat (3)Tumörer med eosinofila celler (4)Tumörer med en mikropapillär arkitektonisk komponent.

Vi hypoteserar att identifiering av cancerdrivande gener och molekylära avvikelser specifika för serösa BOTs kommer att ge nya insikter i deras patogenes och avslöja biomarkörer med prognostisk och prediktiv användbarhet. Dessa fynd kan även bidra till utvecklingen av individanpassade behandlingsstrategier för patienter med serösa BOTs, vilket kan minska risken för överbehandling samtidigt som risken för progression till invasiv cancer beaktas. Vidare hypoteserar vi att borderline serösa BOTs, som befinner sig i ett intermediärt stadium mellan benigna och maligna äggstockscancer, drivs av specifika genetiska och epigenetiska förändringar som påverkar deras kliniska beteende.

Projekt: Cancer är en heterogen grupp av sjukdomar och enskilda cancerformer uppvisar ofta distinkta kliniska egenskaper som framhäver underliggande tumörbiologi. Neuroendokrin tumör i tunntarmen (SI-NET) är den vanligaste elakartade tumören i tunntarmen och har flera utmärkande kliniska och molekylära egenskaper, men de underliggande onkogena mekanismerna är fortfarande okända. Den begränsade förståelsen av SI-NET-patologi hindrar dels utvecklingen av nya behandlingsalternativ och dels möjligheten att förutsäga behandlingssvar från befintlig behandling. Eftersom det saknas experimentella modeller inom SI-NET-forskning med få autentiska cellinjer och inga representativa musmodeller, använder det aktuella projektet en kombination av kliniska observationer, tumörvävnad erhållen vid operation, kliniska data och modern experimentell metodik. 

Med hjälp av denna translationella forskningsplattform presenterade vår grupp i samarbete med Erik Larsson Lekholms forskargrupp nyligen en banbrytande upptäckt som slutgiltigt fastställer att multifocalitet, dvs. närvaron av multipla tarmtumörer, orsakas av uppkomsten av klonalt oberoende tumörer i ett isolerat tarmsegment. Dessa resultat tyder starkt på närvaron av en lokal fälteffekt som predisponerar för initiering av SI-NET i tumörer och öppnar därmed upp ett nytt område inom SI-NET-forskning. Det aktuella doktorandprojektet inkluderar projekt som använder avancerad provtagning inklusive omgivande vävnad och sc-RNA-sekvensering som är utformade för att avslöja de underliggande onkogena mekanismerna som styr uppkomst och tillväxt av SI-NET.

Projekt: Virus har länge betraktats som en betydande källa till dubbelsträngade (ds)RNA i mänskliga celler. Emellertid tyder nya bevis på att mänskliga celler själva kan generera stora mängder endogena cellulära dsRNA under normala fysiologiska processer och patologiska sammanhang. Trots detta är det inte mycket känt om de mekanismer genom vilka dsRNA bildas. Nästan två tredjedelar av protein-kodande RNAs (mer än 15 000 protein-kodande RNAs) överlappar med antisense-RNAs, vilket indikerar möjligheten till bildning av dsRNA mellan de sense- och antisense-RNA. Det är oklart hur de undviker dsRNA-bildning.

Våra senaste data avslöjar att RNA-bindande proteinet HnRNPK direkt interagerar med sense- och antisense-överlappande RNAs genom sina specifika interaktioner med CCTCC-motiv, vilket förhindrar bildandet av dubbelsträngat RNA mellan dem (Sagar et al., Nature Communications 2022). Dessutom indikerar opublicerade preliminära data från vårt laboratorium att nedreglering av HnRNPK aktiverar signalvägar som utlöser det medfödda immunförsvaret. Den utvalda doktoranden kommer att undersöka hur HnRNPK-styrda mekanismer reglerar dsRNA-bildning både i normala och cancerösa celler. Dessutom kommer kandidaten att utforska om HnRNPK-uttryck spelar en roll i tumörens undvikande av immunförsvaret.

Vi söker en högmotiverad kandidat med önskvärd bakgrund motsvararande en magisterexamen inom biologi, bioteknik, bioinformatik, immunologi eller biokemi. Kandidaten bör ha stark kompetens inom cell- och molekylärbiologiska tekniker. Tidigare erfarenhet av djurmodeller och tumörimmunologi kommer att beaktas. Kandidaten bör även kunna uppvisa utmärkta färdigheter i skriftlig och muntlig kommunikation på engelska.

I likhet med de flesta filosofiinstitutioner i Sverige så skiljer vi mellan praktisk och teoretisk filosofi, där vi har separata kurser och utfärdar separata examina. Till den teoretiska filosofin räknas vanligen åtminstone följande ämnesområden: epistemologi, metafysik, medvetandefilosofi, språkfilosofi samt vetenskapsfilosofi. Vid FLoV finns de flesta av dessa områden representerade i vår forskning. Värt att notera är att vår forskning och undervisning i filosofi bedrivs inom den analytisk-filosofiska traditionen.

 

Projektbeskrivning
Den här doktorandtjänsten är knuten till och samfinansieras av två pågående forskningsprojekt på institutionen: “Between knowledge and ignorance: epistemic possibilities in inquiry” som leds av Ylwa Sjölin Wirling och “Reconsidering social demarcation” som leds av Jack Wright. I den här utlysningen välkomnar vi därför i första hand sökanden med doktorandprojekt inom epistemologi och/eller vetenskapsfilosofi. Vi är särskilt intresserade av projekt som berör ett eller flera av följande ämnen (men vi är öppna även för andra projekt inom epistemologi eller vetenskapsfilosofi): förståelse, epistemologiska frågor rörande expertis och expertrollen, epistemologiska frågor rörande vetenskapliga modeller, intellektuella dygder och laster, metafilosofi, oenighetens epistemologi, politisk epistemologi, samhällsvetenskapernas vetenskapsfilosofi, socialepistemologi, undersökningars kognitiva mål, normer, och sociala förutsättningar, vetenskapens relation till värden och demokrati, vetenskapens mål och demarkation.

 

Arbetsuppgifter   
Doktorandens huvudsakliga uppgift är att skriva en doktorsavhandling samt slutföra de kurser som ingår i forskarutbildningen.

Doktoranden förväntas utföra sitt arbete i Göteborg och regelbundet och konsekvent delta i institutionens aktiviteter, så som workshops, konferenser och seminarier. I synnerhet förväntas doktoranden vara en aktiv medlem av den/de forskningsmiljöer på institutionen som är relevanta för dennes forskarutbildning, i det här fallet främst i teoretisk filosofi och men också i viss mån i vetenskapsteori.

Forskarutbildningen omfattar fyra års heltidsstudier och leder fram till en doktorsexamen. Inom ramen för din doktorandanställning kan du ha institutionstjänstgöring i en omfattning av max 20 % av heltid fördelat under hela utbildningstiden vilket i så fall genererar motsvarande förlängning av utbildningstiden.

Join our dynamic team at the forefront of computational solid-state materials research! As a PhD student in the Condensed Matter and Materials Theory division, you will have the opportunity to explore surface and device physics, using density functional theory (DFT) and related computational methods. Your work will contribute to predicting and deepening our understanding of electronic, structural, and magnetic properties at solid-state surfaces and interfaces.

About us
The Condensed Matter and Materials Theory division models and studies diverse materials and condensed matter systems, often inspiring new materials, technologies, or structured media with unique properties. We integrate theoretical, methodological, and computational techniques, collaborating closely with local and international experimental groups.


About the research project 
To interpret experiments and exploit materials for next-generation devices, it is crucial to understand surface and interface properties, which can differ from bulk material properties. You will combine symmetry analysis with electronic structure and atomistic modeling to predict localized phenomena that emerge due to the low symmetry and dimensionality of surfaces. The project will also focus on developing more realistic surface models, for example by including magnetic and atomistic reconstructions, to improve interpretations of surface-sensitive experiments.

As a PhD student in this role, you will focus on modeling solid-state surface and interface phenomena, with an emphasis on magnetic and topological properties. This research has potential for both improved interpretation of experiments, and design of “spintronics” devices with improved robustness and efficiency compared to traditional electronics. You will use theoretical tools including symmetry analysis, DFT, tight-binding, and depending on project progression, machine learning. You will collaborate locally and internationally with groups in both theory and experiment. You will disseminate your findings by publishing in scientific journals and presenting at conferences.

Who we are looking for

We welcome applicants with the following qualifications:


• To qualify as a PhD student, should hold a master’s degree or equivalent in physics, chemistry or materials science 
• Strong written and verbal communication skills in English
• If you are interested in using machine learning in the latter stages of the project, you have some basic ML experience.
• You should be willing to contribute to a supportive, collaborative working environment and be willing to work with both experimental and theoretical collaborators.

Experience in the following areas is beneficial but not required. We value a willingness to learn and grow in these areas:


• Prior experience in some sort of computational method such as DFT, tight-binding or Monte Carlo simulations.

We are committed to fostering an inclusive and diverse research environment. We welcome applicants from all backgrounds and experiences.

What you will do

As a PhD student, you will have the opportunity to shape your research project while receiving guidance and support. In the role you will:


•
Learn and use symmetry analysis as a basis for predictions


•
Perform density functional theory (DFT) calculations using VASP, focusing on surface and interface properties


•
Apply related computational techniques such as tight-binding, Monte Carlo, and machine learning


•
Collaborate with experimental groups to relate your computational results to surface-sensitive measurements such as magnetotransport and magnetic circular dichroism


•
Communicate results through publishing in scientific journals and presenting at international conferences


•
Teach at Chalmers' undergraduate level, or perform other administrative duties, corresponding to 20 per cent of working hours.


•
Take courses at an advanced level within the Graduate school of Physics
