Doktorandplats i freds- och utvecklingsforskning med fokus på värdländers svar på transnationellt förtryck
Freds- och utvecklingsforskning vid Göteborgs universitet är en framgångsrik tvärvetenskaplig forskningsmiljö. Forskningsmiljön består av ca 50 forskare som använder ett brett urval av ansatser för att forska om olika teman inom fred och utveckling i olika regioner i världen. Dessa teman inbegriper, men är inte begränsade till, konflikter, säkerhet, genus, migration, mänskliga rättigheter, global politisk ekonomi, regional och global styrning samt motstånd.
Freds- och utvecklingsforskning vid Institutionen för globala studier, Göteborgs universitet, utlyser en doktorandplats med inriktning mot värdstaters svar på transnationell repression. Med detta avses i bred bemärkelse auktoritära regimers försök att bestraffa, avskräcka, underminera och tysta aktivism i diasporan. Doktorandprojektet kommer att genomföras inom ramen för ett internationellt forskningsprojekt som undersöker transnationell repression (TNR) och värdstaters respons på denna i den nordisk-baltiska regionen. Inom denna ram kommer doktoranden att bidra till ett arbetspaket med fokus på hur normer relaterade till TNR omsätts i rättsliga och policyrelaterade åtgärder i värdstater. Med ett jämförande perspektiv på två till tre nordisk-baltiska länder (Sverige, Norge och/eller Estland) kan doktoranden exempelvis studera dimensioner såsom:
graden av medvetenhet bland tjänstepersoner som arbetar med brottsbekämpning, gränskontroll, migration och/eller cybersäkerhet.
värdstaters uppsökande arbete gentemot migranter och diasporor som är särskilt utsatta.
former för samverkan mellan statliga myndigheter och civilsamhällesorganisationer.
rutiner för rapportering av incidenter av TNR.
utredning och lagföring av gärningspersoner.
och/eller andra ämnen av relevans för TNR.

Institutionen för geovetenskaper vid Göteborgs universitet har ca 80 medarbetare. Vi har kandidat- och mastersprogram i geovetenskaper och geografi samt forskarutbildning med flera geovetenskapliga inriktningar. Våra starka forskningsområden är klimatologi, ekosystemvetenskap, och tillämpad geovetenskap. Mer information hittar du på vår websida: https://www.gu.se/geovetenskaper
Projektet är ett samarbete mellan Göteborgs Universitet och Chalmers Tekniska Högskola och finansieras av den nya forskarskolan "Swedish Space Research School". För mer information se: https://www.kth.se/ssrs. 
Arktiska polynyor – mer än bara hål i isen
Arktis värms upp fyra gånger snabbare än resten av världen. Havsisen försvinner. För att göra saken än värre har polynyor (öppningar i havsisen) börjat bildas i det så kallade "sista isområdet", där havsisen fortfarande är/var tjock och motståndskraftig. Vad är det som driver dessa öppningar?
Polynyor kyler ner havet, bidrar till molnbildning, förstärker luft–hav-utbytet av gaser och utgör hotspots för ekosystem. Är det goda eller dåliga nyheter för klimatsystemet att de har börjat öppnas?
Detta projekt, "ASAP", som finansieras av Swedish Space Research School, syftar till att ta reda på:
varför sommar polynyor öppnas i Arktis, och när

Arbetsuppgifter som forskarstuderande
Information om arbetsuppgifterna inom forskarstudierna
Inspirerad av kvantkoherensen i fotosyntesen ska du använda kvanteffekter för att öka den effektiva hastigheten av energimigrationen i organiska material. Det här genom utspridningseffekter. Du ska genomföra stark sammankoppling av molekylära energiövergångar och ljus, vilket gör att fotonerna som absorberas av molekylerna inte längre är lokaliserad på respektive molekyl utan sprids ut över hela systemet. Vårt övergripande mål är att använda utspridningseffekter för att transportera energi till gränsytor. Det här kan tyckas vara en fråga av akademisk art, men ett lyckat projekt kommer påverka sättet som organiska solceller produceras. Det här eftersom de två materialen genom den starka kopplingen bara behöver blandas kvantmekaniskt i stället för fysiskt för att ge en effektiv laddningsseparation. I ditt projekt så kommer fundamentala aspekter av stark ljus-materia interaktion studeras. Det kan göras genom att förbättra material som studeras (syntes av färgämnen), eller genom att på nya sätt koppla mätningar till teori (optisk spektroskopi). Praktiska arbetsuppgifter kommer att vara fokuserade på substrattillverkning, testning (vilket framför allt inbegriper optisk spektroskopi), och analys. Du kommer att arbeta självständigt inom en forskargrupp på ca tio personer. Forskarutbildning omfattar fyra års heltidsstudier och leder fram till en doktorsexamen.?    Arbetet under doktorandtiden ska resultera i en skriven och försvarad doktorsavhandling som överensstämmer med reglerna för en avhandling vid Göteborgs Universitet.
Inom ramen för din doktorandanställning kan du ha institutionstjänstgöring i en omfattning av max 20 procent 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.
Utöver det vetenskapliga arbetet ska en doktorand delta i kurser, personalaktiviteter och gruppaktiviteter såsom gruppmöten och litteraturseminarier

Arbetsuppgifter   
Institutionen för sociologi och arbetsvetenskap söker en doktorand för arbete inom det befintliga projektet: ”Primärvårdens organisatoriska utmaningar och samarbeten vid återgång i arbete”.

Forskningsprojektet ingår som en del av Centrum för återgång i arbete – tvärvetenskaplig primärvårdsnära forskning vid Göteborgs universitet (UGot Rework). UGot ReWork är ett tvärvetenskapligt forskningscentrum vid Göteborgs universitet med finansiering av forskningsrådet FORTE. UGot ReWork samlar forskare från flera vetenskapliga discipliner för att utveckla kunskap om hållbar återgång i arbete med fokus på psykisk ohälsa och långvariga smärttillstånd. Centrumet erbjuder en tvärvetenskaplig, internationell och samverkansinriktad forskningsmiljö för forskare som vill bidra till ett forskningsfält med betydande samhällsrelevans. Institutionen för medicin vid Sahlgrenska akademin är värdinstitution för centret.

Projektets syfte är att förstå och stärka primärvårdens organisatoriska förutsättningar för återgång i arbetet. Följande frågor kommer undersökas: Hur samverkar professioner och ledning i primärvården? Hur påverkar organisatoriska strukturer och förutsättningar läkares ansvar, arbete och beslut? Hur kan samverkan mellan primärvården, arbetsgivare och Försäkringskassan förbättras? Doktoranden har delvis möjlighet att utveckla egna frågeställningar inom projektets ramar baserat på det insamlade materialet.

Projektet innehåller kvalitativa och kvantitativa studier . Studierna genomförs i form av fallstudier av vårdcentraler med insamling och analys av intervjuer och dokument. De kvantitativa studierna analyserar registerdata. De första studierna lägger grund för samskapande av organisatoriska interventioner som senare kommer att implementeras och utvärderas. För en fullständig projektbeskrivning eller frågor, kontakta projektledaren Lotta Dellve.

Doktoranden kommer att arbeta tillsammans med handledare och projektmedlemmar som har kompetenser inom dessa områden.

At the division of Computer and Network Systems, we design secure, dependable and high-performance computer and communication systems that meet the demands of an increasingly digital and interconnected world.

About the research project? 
Modern vehicles rely on large distributed software systems and complex communication infrastructures. When incidents occur in such systems, understanding what happened can be difficult because current vehicle platforms are not designed to provide clear system evidence, and available data may be incomplete or difficult to interpret. This is further challenged by evolving and more dynamic attacks, while existing security mechanisms are often relatively static. At the same time, increasing regulatory requirements highlight the need for improved approaches, where security becomes an important enabler.

This doctoral project studies system mechanisms that support security monitoring and Automotive Digital Forensics (ADF) in automotive systems. The research focuses on methods for collecting and analysing system data in complex vehicle platforms while respecting constraints related to safety, system resources, and performance.

We are looking for a Doctoral student to become part of our team in the Division of Systems and Control at the Department of Electrical Engineering.?Join our innovative team and contribute to exciting research in data-driven control in a collaborative and dynamic environment. 

About us 
At the department of Electrical Engineering research and education are performed in the areas of Communications, Antennas and Optical Networks, Systems and Control, Signal processing and Biomedical engineering, and Electric Power Engineering. We work with sustainable and smart solutions to societal challenges, such as energy efficiency and electrification in areas ranging from transport and production systems to communication solutions and biomedical engineering.

You will join a group within the Automatic Control unit of the Systems and Control division focusing on data-driven control methodologies.

About the research project? 
Model-based control is arguably the prime framework to perform certifiably-safe regulation of dynamical systems. However, when dynamics are complex, nonlinear and partially unknown, such a model is typically obtained from observations by performing system identification. Typical identification algorithms are agnostic of the downstream task they will be deployed on, and this may lead to a suboptimal control performance. In this project, we will investigate control-oriented biases and their impact on system identification and control, addressing key issues such as persistence of excitation, safe exploration, input design, and connections with direct control methods.

Who we are looking for
The following requirements are mandatory:

• To qualify as a Doctoral student, you must have a Master's degree (masterexamen) of 120 credits or a Master’s degree (magisterexamen) of 60 credits* in Engineering or Applied Mathematics, preferably with a major in automatic control or similar

*for students with an education earned outside of Sweden, a 4-year Bachelor’s degree is accepted. 

The following experience will strengthen your application: 

• Experience in system identification and machine learning is a merit. 

What you will do

• Perform research, developing your own scientific concepts and communicating the results of your research verbally and in writing 
• Take courses at an advanced level within the Graduate school of Electrical Engineering 
• The position generally also includes teaching on Chalmers' undergraduate level or performing other duties corresponding to 20 percent of working hours
• As a WASP student you will also be part of a graduate school network across leading Swedish universities, offering specialized courses for AI, extra training, study visits and conferences broadening your skills.

Contract terms  

• The Doctoral student positions are fully funded from start. 
• The position is a fixed-term appointment of four years, with the possibility to teach up to 20%, which extends the position up to five years. 
• A starting salary of 34,550 SEK per month (valid from May 25, 2025).

Have you ever tried to "make eye contact" with a faceless robot to figure out what it's about to do? Join us for an exciting research project at the forefront of robotics innovation, to figure out a better way for robots to communicate with people! 

About us 
The Department of Computer Science and Engineering, a joint department of Chalmers and the University of Gothenburg, spans the breadth of computing disciplines. Our internationally visible research, strong industry links and diverse environment create a collaborative setting where ideas grow into real impact. 

At the division of Interaction Design and Software Engineering, we design smarter ways to engineer better software, and explore how people engage with digital systems, combining global research perspectives with strong collaboration with industry. 

Within the division, you will join a growing group of researchers working in Human-Robot Interaction, focusing on trustworthy and critical robotics, with access to well-equipped labs and a diverse range of robots.

About the research project? 
Robots are entering human spaces, but they are still struggling to communicate effectively with us. Whether assisting older adults, delivering goods, supporting education, or navigating busy public environments, robots must make their intentions understandable to the people around them. If a robot cannot clearly signal what it is about to do, coordination breaks down. Trust weakens. Acceptance declines. In safety-critical contexts, misunderstandings can have serious consequences.

This PhD project addresses this challenge. You will develop a novel, universal framework for robot communication that is both platform-independent and context-adaptive. Instead of designing communication strategies for one robot at a time, the goal is to establish principled foundations for how robots can communicate, regardless of which robot, which context, which environment. This interdisciplinary project combines theory-driven research with empirical investigation. It will involve data collection in real-world settings as well as controlled user studies, alongside the development of new theoretical models of human-robot communication. The PhD candidate will be supervised by experts in Linguistics and Human-Robot Interaction and will collaborate closely with a postdoctoral researcher responsible for the technical implementation of the framework on robotic platforms.

We are looking for a motivated and curious PhD candidate, ideally with a background in linguistics and an interest in robotic applications, who is eager to work at the intersection of social science and robotics, and contribute to shaping the future of how humans and robots understand each other.

Who we are looking for
The following requirements are mandatory:

• To qualify as a Doctoral student, you must have a Master's degree (masterexamen) of 120 credits or a Master’s degree (magisterexamen) of 60 credits* in Linguistics, Human-Computer Interaction, Interaction Design, Computer Science, Robotics, Cognitive Science, or related fields.

Helps us to derive novel climate data by combining two of Europe's new satellite sensors. If you have interests in physics, climate and machine learning, this is the Doctoral student position for you!

About us 
Our team is part of the Division of Geoscience and Remote Sensing. The division's overall aim is to develop advanced methods and instruments to observe and understand the Earth system. Combining satellite, airborne and ground-based measurements with modelling and machine learning, we collaborate globally to monitor environmental change and support a sustainable future. The division is found within the Department of Space, Earth and Environment.
About the research project? 
The satellite carrying the ground-breaking MicroWave Imager (MWI) and Ice Cloud Imager (ICI) will be launched this summer. Our team plays a leading role in preparing for ICI, and we will derive much-needed climate data on ice clouds from it. This project is about extending the data extraction to use measurements from MWI and ICI jointly as input and, in this way, derive geophysical data on all forms of water in the atmosphere (gas, liquid, and ice). These data will allow unprecedented studies of the atmospheric water cycle.

The data extraction will be based on existing machine learning development made by the team, in particular the use of quantile regression neural networks. There exists no other measurements that can be used as "ground-truth", and to obtain training data the MWI and ICI observations must be simulated. Accordingly, the foundation of the project is to perform detailed physical simulations that involving atmospheric science, radiative transfer, and the sensor's characteristics. To make full use of the possibilities offered by machine learning, we are pushed to perform better and more large-scale physical simulations than done before.

The work will form the basis for official data products (distributed by EUMETSAT) and for research products produced and disseminated by the team itself. Possible additional tasks include to improve our main simulation tool (Atmospheric Radiative Transfer Simulator, https://www.radiativetransfer.org/), to apply the derived geophysical data for verifying climate models and to apply the development on the Arctic Weather Satellite and Sterna missions.

Who we are looking for
The following requirements are mandatory:

• To qualify as a Doctoral student, you must have (when starting the position) a Master's degree (*masterexamen*) of 120 credits or a Master’s degree (*magisterexamen*) of 60 credits*. A range of educational backgrounds are possible, but strong skills and interest in physics and computing must be proven. 
• You must be able to start at the latest Aug 1.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills in English.
• Being meticulous, have logical thinking and good problem-solving skills.

*for students with an education earned outside of Sweden, a 4-year Bachelor’s degree is accepted. 

The following experience will strengthen your application: 

• Knowledge in atmospheric science, radiative transfer and remote sensing.
• Proficiency in Python and deep learning frameworks (e.g., PyTorch).

Join us to develop physics-guided, data-driven foundation models for multivariate time-series in safety-critical systems, with a primary focus on automotive applications. You will design predictive and generative models, scale training on real data, and validate in simulation and with industry partners to advance safe, reliable automation.

About us 
The Department of Computer Science and Engineering, a joint department of Chalmers and the University of Gothenburg. Our internationally visible research, strong industry links and diverse environment create a collaborative setting where ideas grow into real impact. 

At the Division of Computing Science, we advance secure and trustworthy software and systems, spanning foundations, programming languages, tools and practical methods that help shape dependable digital infrastructures. 

This project is a collaboration between AIXLab@Chalmers and Volvo Group. You will join us at AIXLab, where we focus on developing usable AI solutions that are applicable in real-world settings. You will work closely with engineers and researchers at Volvo Group, with direct access to industrial datasets, simulation environments, and real validation workflows.

About the research project? 
This project advances physics-aware foundation models for time-series data. Here, foundation models refer to reusable, pretrained time-series models that can be adapted across vehicles, driving conditions, and tasks. The primary use case is automotive: predicting vehicle behavior, simulating rare safety-critical scenarios and generating test cases to strengthen validation and reduce physical trials. The techniques are designed to transfer to other safety-critical domains such as healthcare. 

Concretely, the research will focus on multivariate vehicle time series such as CAN signals, sensor streams, and simulated state trajectories, with models that integrate physical structure (e.g. dynamics, constraints, conservation laws) into large neural architectures. Physics guidance may include explicit system constraints, inductive biases in model architectures, hybrid simulation learning loops, or loss formulations that encode physical consistency. The work combines forecasting, representation learning, and scenario generation under safety and reliability constraints. The results will support safer automation, fewer failure modes, more efficient testing, and lower energy use.

Who we are looking for
We are particularly interested in candidates who enjoy working at the intersection of theory, data, and real-world systems, and who are comfortable with imperfect, noisy, and safety-constrained data.

The following requirements are mandatory:

• To qualify as a Doctoral student, you must have a Master's degree (masterexamen) of 120 credits or a Master’s degree (magisterexamen) of 60 credits* in Computer Science, Electrical engineering, or equivalent
• Strong written and verbal communication skills in English
• Strong machine learning fundamentals (probability, statistics, optimization) and strong interest in time-series modeling and physics-guided machine learning
• Proficiency in Python and modern deep learning frameworks (e.g., PyTorch)
• Strong engineering maturity, including experience with large-scale GPU or cluster-based training, reproducible experiment pipelines, versioned datasets, and systematic evaluation
• Ability to formulate research questions, run empirical studies at scale

*for students with an education earned outside of Sweden, a 4-year Bachelor’s degree is accepted. 

The following experience will strengthen your application: 

• Physics-informed machine learning
• Background in foundation models for time-series (forecasting, representation learning)
• Exposure to safety-critical systems, scenario generation, or test coverage for edge cases
• Academic research and publications

What you will do

• Take advanced courses within the Graduate school of Computer Science and Engineering
• Develop your own scientific concepts and communicate the results of your research verbally and in writing
• By the end of the PhD, the candidate is expected to have developed reusable modeling frameworks for safety-critical time-series data. The work should result in publications in top-tier machine learning or applied AI venues and contributions that influence industrial validation pipelines

Contract terms  

• The Doctoral student positions are fully funded from start
• The position is limited to four years, with the possibility to teach up to 20%, which extends the position to five years
• A starting salary of 34,550 SEK per month (valid from May 25, 2025)
• Doctoral studies require physical presence throughout the entire study period. A valid residence permit must be presented by the study start date; otherwise the admission may be withdrawn

Join us at the Division of Communications, Antenna, and Optical Networks, and help advance knowledge in the rapidly evolving field of fiber sensing in optical communication networks. 

Our modern connected world is built on an immense web of fiber-optic cables linking cities, countries, and continents (see, for example, submarinecablemap.com). While this global infrastructure was designed for data transmission, it holds an extraordinary potential: it can also act as a large-scale sensor of the surrounding physical environment. In this project, we explore both the opportunities and risks associated with this potential.

This PhD position is fully funded for 4 years (plus a possible extension based on teaching and department duties) at one of Europe's leading technical universities. The PhD student will be supervised by Assist. Prof. Christian Häger, in collaboration with Prof. Magnus Karlsson (IEEE & Optica Fellow), Prof. Mats Viberg, and Assoc. Prof. Marija Furdek. We have a very large network of international collaboration partners, with many possibilities for longer research visits abroad, for example to Germany, the Netherlands, the UK, or the USA. We offer some of the highest salaries for PhD students in Europe, full social benefits and health insurance, no tuition fees for PhD studies, financial support for relocation, and more; see below for details.

The starting date for this position is Fall 2026. 

About the research project? 
Today’s telecommunication fibers are primarily designed for data transmission, but they can also serve as passive sensors of mechanical and acoustic environmental perturbations. While pervasive fiber sensing could enable many beneficial applications such as infrastructure monitoring and environmental awareness, it may also unintentionally capture sensitive information, including human activity or speech. Your work will focus on developing new numerical models, advanced machine learning algorithms, and signal processing methods to understand what information about the surrounding environment can be inferred from optical communication signals. This includes identifying both intended sensing capabilities and unintended information leakage, such as the detectability of human activity or speech-related vibrations. The goal is to establish a physics-based and system-level understanding of what can—and cannot—be sensed using existing telecom infrastructure, and to assess implications for privacy, security, and system design.

We are looking for a Doctoral student to become part of our team at the Division of Data Science and AI at the Department of Computer Science and Engineering.?Join our innovative team and contribute to exciting research in theory of machine learning, in a collaborative and dynamic environment. In the rapidly growing area of artificial intelligence (AI), this position is a uniqure chance to develope new, high-impact solutions, while contributing to the theoretical foundations of the field. The position is a full-time employment with a competitive monthly salary and full social benefits for up to five years.

About us 
The department of Computer Science and Engineering is strongly international, with approximately 300 employees from over 30 countries. The department is a fully integrated department with Chalmers University of Technology and University of Gothenburg as principals. The position is placed in the Division of Data Science and AI and the employment is placed with Chalmers University of Technology.

Our research spans from theoretical computer science to applied systems development. We provide high-quality education at the bachelor's, master's, and doctoral levels, offering over 120 courses each year. We also have extensive national and international collaborations with academia, industry, and society.

The selected student will join a research group that investigates advanced methods for various machine learning applications and aims to reach a deeper theoretical understanding of machine learning, as a key modern technology. 

About the research project? 
A prominent, cost-effective method for machine leaning today is by transferring and adapting the knowledge, which is already accumulated in large (foundation) models, to smaller task-specific models. There are effective techniques to reach this goal, such as distillation or fine-tuning, but how they work is not well understood, yet. The purpose of this project is to gain a deeper understanding of how knowledge about a certain task is transferred from large models to smaller ones. In particular, we would like to know how the evolution of the models during training allows them to acquire new skills or forget unnecessary tasks. The methodology is a combination of mathematical exploration and experimentation on real data and allows the student to gain a wide range of knowledge from high-dimensional statistical learning theory and dynamical systems to implementation and experimentation of ML in specific application domains. We hope that our new insights allow us to develop more effective methods of knowledge transfer, which will have a great impact in real-world applications. It is possible for the student to collaborate with other students in the group who work on specific applied problems and experiment on their data.

Arbetsuppgifter  
Forskarskolorna

Doktorandanställningarna finansieras med medel från Vetenskapsrådet genom två forskarskolor. Tre eller fler doktorander inom forskarskolorna kommer ha sin placering på IPS.

Den ena är en nationell forskarskola i specialpedagogik med inriktning interventioner i skolan. Forskarskolan koordineras av Stockholms universitet i samarbete med Linköpings universitet, Göteborgs universitet och Mälardalens universitet. I forskarskolan förenas multidisciplinär forskning och doktorandprojekten kan därmed utgå från olika vetenskapliga perspektiv på elevers lärande och delaktighet. Mer information kan hittas här: Forskarskola interventionsforskning

Den andra forskarskolan heter ”kognition i klassrummet” och kommer att behandla elevers språk-, läs- och skrivutveckling ur kognitiva perspektiv. Forskarskolan möter behovet av ökad kunskap om hur lärare – från förskoleklass till gymnasiet – kan arbeta forskningsbaserat med dessa frågor. Mer information om forskarskolan finns att läsa här: https://www.gu.se/forskning/kognition-i-klassrummet

Genom tvärvetenskapliga kurser, seminarier och gemensamma forskningsmiljöer erbjuder bägge forskarskolorna en sammanhållen och stimulerande forskarutbildningsmiljö för doktorander som vill bidra till fördjupad kunskap om de kognitiva processerna bakom språk-, läs- och skrivutveckling samt om specialpedagogisk innovation och intervention. Du kan också läsa om övriga nystartade forskarskolor på utbildningsvetenskapliga fakulteten Forskarskolor UF

Vi välkomnar i första hand projekt inom följande tre tematiska områden, och ser gärna att både kvantitativa och kvalitativa metoder används av doktoranderna:

Projekt1: Studiestrategier

Projektet ska undersöka studiestrategier hos äldre elever med dyslexi eller andra inlärningsmässiga svårigheter. Projektet kan komma att röra (a) gruppjämförelser med elever utan dyslexi, (b) undersöka vad som gör att vissa elever har lättare och andra svårare med studieteknik, samt (c) adressera hur en träningsinsats kan göra positiv skillnad för eleverna. Av stort intresse är såväl kognitiva strategier hos eleverna som deras användande av digitala verktyg och andra icke-tekniska resurser. 

Projekt 2: Ordinlärning

Projektet ska undersöka lärandeupplägg som stödjer elever i olika åldrar att ta till sig betydelsen och stavningsmönster hos ord i text. Projektet kan komma att röra (a) hur lärande av ord påverkas av om eleven läser eller lyssnar på text, (b) hur ordinlärningsförmåga hänger samman med elevens generella läs- och skrivförmåga, samt (c) vilka medvetna strategier eleverna använder vid ordinlärning samt om och hur dessa kan stöttas.

Projekt 3: Högläsning och elever med intellektuell funktionsnedsättning

Projektet rör högläsning och boksamtal som både pedagogisk praktik och riktad intervention för elever och deras lärare i anpassad grundskola (gamla ”särskolan”). Särskilt fokus ligger på samtalen kring innehållet i böckerna, hur elever och lärare tillsammans utforskar berättelser, känslor och perspektiv, och hur dessa samtal kan bidra till elevers sociala förståelse och språkliga utveckling. Syftet är att undersöka och utvärdera effekter av strukturerad högläsning och boksamtal som insats för elever med intellektuella funktionsnedsättningar.

Do you want to contribute to groundbreaking and collaborative research on how to design and integrate of technologies into whole systems using MBSE  - Model Based Systems Engineering? This is an exciting opportunity for a postdoctoral position at the Division of Product Development, Department of Industrial and Materials Science , focused on innovative research in Systems Engineering Design. 

About the research project 






The position addresses a central research challenge in which design of whole-jet engine systems depend on the characteristics of subsystem materials and manufacturing technologies.

The core scientific challenge is to develop MBSE approaches that can represent and exploit both the opportunities and constraints introduced by advanced materials and manufacturing technologies, with particular emphasis on additive manufacturing. While these technologies enable new design freedoms such as increased functional integration, improved thermal management, and reduced part count they also introduce constraints related to material characteristics, process-induced variability, residual stresses, surface integrity, inspection and qualification requirements, and sustainability. Capturing these effects in whole-engine, system-level models remains an open research problem. Ultimately, MBSE models for conceptual design must be capable of representing system behavior arising from alternative subsystem concepts and architectures.

The postdoctoral researcher will focus on integrating material and manufacturing behavior with mechanical and thermal performance models, manufacturability considerations, and sustainability metrics within a system-of-systems perspective. The work will investigate how physics-based models, reduced-order representations, and datadriven approaches can be combined and embedded in MBSE frameworks to support earlystage architectural decisions, tradeoff analyses, and system validation for small jet engine concepts.

The research will include the development of modeling strategies that connect material properties and manufacturing process parameters including additive manufacturing to component-level behavior and overall engine system performance using state-of-the-art MBSE methods and tools. Particular attention will be given to how manufacturing-enabled design freedoms and constraints propagate through the system architecture, influencing thermal behavior, structural integrity, reliability, cost, and environmental impact across the life cycle.

The position will also address challenges related to model fidelity, uncertainty, design margins, and traceability. This includes representing manufacturing constraints and material behavior in forms suitable for system-level reasoning, and ensuring consistency between detailed simulations, experimental data, and higher-level system models. The researcher is expected to contribute to methodological advances in MBSE that strengthen the integration of multi-physics and manufacturing knowledge into industrially applicable system models.

The position is part of a collaborative research initiative involving Chalmers, GKN Aerospace, and KTH, focused on the development of an experimental jet engine demonstrator for system validation. The postdoctoral researcher will work closely with industrial and academic partners, contributing MBSE expertise while grounding the research in practical engineering challenges. Expected outcomes include novel MBSE methodologies, high-quality scientific publications, and contributions to industrial development practices, supporting the development of manufacturable and sustainable small jet engine architectures and long-term competence building in aerospace systems engineering.

Läs mer om Högskolan för scen och musik här: www.gu.se/scen-musik

Om REM@KE och de lediga doktorandtjänsterna 

REM@KE är ett sexårigt tvärvetenskapligt program som finansieras av Synergy-plattformen inom Europeiska forskningsrådet, med startdatum den 1 september 2025. Inom projektet avser vi att bygga nya broar mellan konstnärlig forskning, klaverorganologi och kognitionsvetenskaper. Genom mikrohistoriska studier av fyra specifika klaverinstrument från renässansen till romantiken kommer vi att utveckla nya modeller för dokumentation, musikalisk gestaltning och kommunikation som involverar seniora forskare, doktorander, museipersonal, utövare, byggare och nya publikgrupper. Projektansvariga och huvudforskare inom projektet är Joel Speerstra (Göteborg), Massimiliano Guido (Pavia) och Andrea Schiavio (York). Några av de ämnesområden som REM@KE kommer att adressera är:


• Förbisedda historiska framträdanden

We are looking for one Doctoral student at the divison of Algebra and Geometry. The research project will be at the interface of number theory and harmonic analysis and will be conducted within the research group of Simon Rydin Myerson.

About us 
The Department of Mathematical Sciences at the Chalmers University of Technology and the University of Gothenburg has about 200 employees and is the largest department of mathematics in Sweden. We have an international environment with frequent exchanges with other universities around the world. We provide a friendly, creative, and supportive atmosphere with a steady flow of international guests. Equality and diversity are substantial foundations in all our activities. We work actively to be a parent-friendly organization.

At the Division of Algebra and Geometry we conduct research in areas such as algebraic geometry, complex geometry, number theory, mathematical physics and the mathematics of AI.

About the research project? 
Many open questions in number theory, such as the Manin-Peyre conjecture, concern Diophantine equations. Even certain questions in harmonic analysis and PDE can be understood as Diophantine problems.

This project will use analytic techniques to study problems concerning polynomials in (algebraic or rational) integers. An extension or alternative is to use these Diophantine techniques to tackle problems in harmonic analysis or PDE, especially spectral multiplier estimates on compact manifolds and nilmanifolds.

The doctoral student could establish existence of solutions using modern forms of the Birch-Davenport circle method, or prove upper bounds using the sieve or determinant methods. Systems of equations with differing degrees, and cubic equations in three integer variables, are current frontiers in this area.

As a Doctoral student you will be part of an international research environment while you expand your knowledge of the field and write your thesis. This gives opportunities for many inspiring conversations, a lot of autonomous work and some travel. You are expected to develop your own ideas and communicate scientific results orally as well as in written form.

We are looking for a Doctoral student at the division Analysis and Probability Theory within the Department of Mathematical Sciences. The research project is in mathematical general relativity, with Thomas Bäckdahl as supervisor. 

About us 
The Department of Mathematical Sciences as the Chalmers University of Technology and the University of Gothenburg has about 200 employees and is the largest department of mathematics in Sweden. We have an international environment with frequent exchanges with other universities around the world. We provide a friendly, creative and supportive atmosphere with a steady flow of international guests. Equality and diversity are substantial foundations in all our activities. We work actively to be a parent-friendly organization.

About the research project? 
In this Doctoral project, you will study the mathematics of general relativity. This includes investigations of quasi-linear PDE systems in strongly curved geometries. Of particular interest are problems related to black holes, their stability, uniqueness, decay of fields around them, details about their geometry etc. This is a highly active field with research groups around the world.

In this project, you will learn to combine modern analysis techniques like Morawetz estimates with Penrose's Nobel prize winning geometrical insights and formalisms, intricate symmetry operators, spinor techniques and powerful computer algebra tools to efficiently study these problems. A particularly useful technique is to study how different kinds of symmetries can characterize a spacetime and give a manifestly coordinate independent way to measure metric perturbations. The symmetries also yield powerful analysis tools. The nature of the tools also allows broad applicability to other PDE problems.

We are looking for a Doctoral student to become part of the Langhammer Group at the Division of Chemical Physics at the Department of Physics.? Join our dynamic and cross-diciplinary team and contribute to groundbreaking research by combining nanofluidics with nanophotonics in the context of heterogeneous catalysis and polaritonic chemistry. 

About us 
The Langhammer group operates at the interfaces between nanomaterial science, nanoplasmonics, nanofluidics, label free single-molecule optical microscopy, single particle catalysis and hydrogen nanosensors. For that purpose, we continuously develop and evolve our own methodologies for state-of-the-art nanofabrication, as well as build our own customized research instrumentation.

Now, we are deepening our efforts towards integrating nanofluidic devices with nanophotonic functionalities in the context of heterogeneous catalysis and polaritonic chemistry.

Are you eager to conduct cutting-edge research in nanoelectronics? We are now recruiting a highly motivated Doctoral student to join the Department of Microtechnology and Nanoscience at Chalmers University of Technology in Gothenburg, Sweden.

About us 
The Department of Microtechnology and Nanoscience advances the frontiers in quantum technology, nanoscience, photonics and future electronic systems - for technical and societal development. Our cross-disciplinary approach gives interesting collaborations in academy, industry and society, and is a driving force for innovations, results and breakthroughs. We offer a vibrant, international research environment and direct access to world-class nanofabrication facilities. 

Under the supervision of Dr. Anton Persson, who recently joined from Stanford University, you will become a part of the Division of Microwave Electronics which has doctoral students and senior researchers from both industry and academia working with semiconductor technology development, circuit design, and the realization of complete system demonstrations.

About the research project? 
The continuous miniaturization of silicon-based electronics has driven the technological progress for decades. However, as devices now approach atomic scales, the fundamental laws of physics increasingly hinder further advances. To sustain the pace of innovation, both academia and industry have started exploring alternative materials, devices, and circuit architectures, particularly in the rapidly expanding field of artificial intelligence (AI) accelerator hardware. Atomically thin two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) semiconductors have emerged as highly promising candidates to either replace or significantly complement silicon in future electronics.

In this project, your doctoral research will focus on developing novel memory and logic transistors based on TMDs. These will target both near-term industrial applications and emerging neuromorphic (brain-inspired) computing architectures. The project covers nanofabrication, electronic device physics, electrical and materials characterization as well as low-level system integration, benefiting from one of the largest cleanrooms in European academia and our uniquely well-equipped electrical characterization laboratory.

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: Utveckling av nukleinsyra-baserade tekniker för klinisk diagnostik

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: Cancer är en av våra vanligaste sjukdomar som kan drabba individer i alla åldrar. Behandling innefattar oftast en kombination av terapier såsom avancerad kirurgi, cytostatika och strålbehandling. Trots förbättrade behandlingar är dessa ofta långvariga och förknippade med svåra biverkningar, därför är det viktigt kunna anpassa behandlingen utefter varje enskild patients sjukdom och behov. Idag är det svårt att på en detaljerad nivå följa exakt hur bra en behandling går och att på ett tidigt stadie upptäcka om cancern återkommer eller andra komplikationer såsom infektion uppkommer. Det är möjligt att lösa dessa utmaningar genom att analysera cellritt DNA och RNA i blodprover. Dessa mätningar kan ge svar om sjukdomsstatus, hur olika mediciner påverkar tumörceller och om behandlingen ska ändras eller avslutas.

Målet med detta projekt är att utveckla helt nya molekylära tekniker och bidra till ett nytt forskningsområde som möjliggör att vi kan titta detaljerat på DNA och RNA molekyler i framför allt blodprover. Vi har speciellt focus på att analysera antisens-oligonukleotider som kan användas för riktade behandlingar inom cancervård och andra sjukdomar. Metoderna kommer att utvecklas och appliceras inom grundforskningsprojekt samt kliniska studier för att sedan på sikt kunna införas inom sjulvården. Ett långsiktigt mål är att kunna individanpassa behandlingen av enskilda cancerpatienter samt att minska över- och underbehandling.

En doktorandplats utannonseras nu inom forskningsgruppen ledd av Anders Ståhlberg vid Sahlgrenska Centrum för Cancerforskning. Projektet kommer att fokusera på utveckling av innovativa mättekniker inom molekylär diagnostik och att kartlägga nyttan av blodanalyser vid behandling och uppföljning av cancerpatienter. Inom projektet kommer doktoranden att arbeta med molekylärbiologiska metoder såsom PCR, sekvensering och grafenbaserade mätmetoder, bioinformatik och hantering av experimentella och kliniska data. Projektet sker i nära samarbete med andra forskare inom akademi, industri och sjukvård både nationellt och internationellt.

Antagning och anställning   
Efter du har blivit antagen till forskarutbildning kommer du att erhålla en doktorandanställning vid Göteborgs universitet. Bestämmelser för anställning som doktorand återfinns i förordning SFS 1993:100. Den första anställningen som doktorand får gälla högst ett år och får förnyas med högst två år i taget. En doktorand får som längst vara anställd som doktorand under åtta år men den sammanlagda anställningstiden får inte vara längre än vad som motsvarar utbildning på forskarnivå på heltid under fyra år.   

Anställningen är en MSCA doktorandanställning inom ett Marie Sk?odowska Curie program med MSCA finansiering. För att bli beviljad MSCA finansiering ska sökande, vid ansökningstillfället, ej ha vistats i Sverige för studier eller arbete längre än 12 månader under de senaste 3 åren. Den sökande får ej heller ha arbetat med forskning mer än 4 år efter sin mastersexamen (motsvarande heltid forskningserfarenhet) och inte heller disputerat inom något annat område. Doktorander som anställs genom Marie Sklodowska-Curie-programmet kommer att erhålla lön i enlighet med Marie Curie-reglerna för doktorander under stipendiets löptid (36 månader). Detta innebär att bruttolönen (dvs. efter avdrag för arbetsgivaravgifter men inklusive arbetstagarens skatter) är ca (beroende på växelkurs) 34 000 SEK/månad (exklusive eventuellt familjetillägg). Under återstående tid av studierna kommer doktoranden att vara anställd enligt ett vanligt doktorandkontrakt, enligt den överenskomna lönestegen för doktorander.

Placering: Sahlgrenska akademin, Institutionen för biomedicin, avdelningen laboratorievetenskap. Omfattning 100%. Tillträde enligt överenskommelse.

Projektbeskrivning

• Den stora variation i djurs form och funktion som vi ser på jorden är ett resultat av naturligt och sexuellt urval. Detta doktorandprojekt fokuserar på evolutionen av honors ornamentering ur ett livshistoriskt perspektiv, inklusive avvägningar mellan överlevnad och reproduktion, genom att undersöka kostnader och fördelar med honors ornamentering i olika livsstadier.
• Projektet kommer att använda både matematisk modellering och experiment på en art av kantnålsfisk, som förekommer längs den svenska kusten och som har tydligt ornamenterade honor. Syftet är att ge ny kunskap om de roller som naturligt och sexuellt urval spelar i evolutionen av honors ornamentering. Forskningen kommer att genomföras i samarbete med både lokala och internationella forskare.

Arbetsuppgifter   

•

• Huvuduppgiften är att genomföra avhandlingsarbetet under handledning vilket inkluderar att doktoranden kommer att utveckla sina kunskaper och färdigheter i metodologi, analysförmåga och ämnesteori.
• Metoder som används inom projektet inkluderar modellering, design och genomförande av beteendeexperiment i akvariemiljö, dataanalys samt författande av vetenskapliga manuskript. Elektron- och ljusmikroskopi kommer också att ingå i projektet.
• De empiriska studierna kommer huvudsakligen att genomföras vid Kristinebergs marina forskningsstation i Fiskebäckskil (cirka 100 km norr om Göteborg), vilket innebär intensiva perioder av fältarbete, med 6–10 veckor per år vid denna och/eller andra marina fältstationer.
• De specifika forskningsområden som projektet berör är evolutionär och beteendeekologi och kräver en gedigen förståelse för naturligt och sexuellt urval i ett reproduktionssammanhang.
