We are offering a PhD position in an exciting new national project focussing on software security, with great opportunities for collaborations with top researchers in cybersecurity, program analysis, and software engineering. The position is salaried (not just fully funded) and part of a lively research environment located in the beautiful city of Gothenburg on the West coast of Sweden.

The position is part of the ShiftLeft project funded by WASP, a new flagship project with partner universities at KTH, Linköping, and Umeå.

General information
The Department of Computer Science and Engineering at University of Gothenburg and Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden with approximately 270 employees from more than 40 countries is widely recognized for excellent research and education. Our department is in Sweden’s second largest city Gothenburg – the world’s most sustainable destination every year since 2016 according to the Global Destination Sustainability Index. The four research divisions at our department are essential scientific facilitators in a vibrant ecosystem of software-intensive companies such as Volvo Cars, Volvo AB, and Ericsson.

About WASP
Wallenberg AI, Autonomous Systems and Software Program (WASP) is Sweden’s largest individual research program ever, a major national initiative for strategically motivated basic research, education, and faculty recruitment. The program addresses research on artificial intelligence and autonomous systems acting in collaboration with humans, adapting to their environment through sensors, information, and knowledge, and forming intelligent systems-of-systems. The vision of WASP is excellent research and competence in artificial intelligence, autonomous systems, and software for the benefit of Swedish society and industry.

The graduate school within WASP provides the skills needed to analyse, develop, and contribute to the interdisciplinary area of artificial intelligence, autonomous systems, and software. Through an ambitious program with research visits, partner universities, and visiting lecturers, the graduate school actively supports forming a strong multi-disciplinary and international professional network between PhD-students, researchers, and industry.

Main Responsibilities
Software is often the root cause of vulnerabilities in modern computing systems. By focusing on securing the software, we target principled security mechanisms that provide robust protection against large classes of attacks. Modern software applications are almost never built from scratch but reuse a significant amount of code that has been built by 3rd parties. These code artifacts, in the form of externally developed libraries, packages and frameworks form the core of their so-called software supply chain.

The goal of ShiftLeft is to contribute to a new paradigm shift for securing software supply chains. As a PhD student in the project, you will be able to focus on problems which fit your talents and interests, ranging from developing the theoretical foundations of classes of vulnerabilities and defences, developing state-of-the-art static analysis tools, conducting large scale analyses of the emergence of vulnerabilities in the software supply chain. The successful applicant will be encouraged to collaborate with PhD students and postdocs working on related topics and have opportunities for collaboration with the project’s industrial partners, Cparta Cyber Defense, Debricked, Ericsson, Recorded Future, and SEB.

We are looking for a PhD student to join the Crypto Team and Security Group at Chalmers with Christoph Egger as main supervisor. Depending on the interests of the applicant, possible research topics include fine-grained and bounded space cryptography, realization of idealized models, relationship between cryptographic notions, and similar topics in foundational cryptography. Exploring connections to statistical security notions and formal methods is possible. One or two extended research visits are encouraged during the doctoral study.

Project overview



• In Bounded Space Cryptography we are working with adversaries that are not restricted in their runtime but have limited memory and are trying to achieve basic cryptographic tasks that are secure against such adversaries.
• Idealized Models are simplifications made in proofs for real-world cryptographic protocols. We often know that this is an oversimplification in general and can hide attacks. We are interested in studying under which circumstances the simplifications can be justified.
• Cryptography relies on unproven assumptions like the hardness of factoring. Studying Relations between Cryptographic Notions asks the question of the type "If I can build public key encryption, can I also always have signature schemes?" and proves whether such statements are true or false.

Information about the division and the department
The Department of Computer Science and Engineering is a joint department at Chalmers University of Technology and the University of Gothenburg. The department has around 300 employees from over 30 countries. Our research covers a wide span, from theoretical foundations to applied systems development. We provide high-quality education at Bachelor's, Master's, and graduate levels, offering over 120 courses each year. We have extensive national and international collaborations with academia, industry, and society.

The PhD student will join a world-leading research environment at the Chalmers Security and Privacy Lab and Crypto Team.The security and privacy lab consists of more than 20 established researchers and covers a wide range of privacy both from a theoretical and practical perspective. The Crypto Team currently has two faculty members and four PhD students with a focus on foundations of cryptography as well as cryptographic primitives with advanced properties.

Our aim is to actively improve our gender balance in both our department and division. We therefore strongly encourage applicants from historically-excluded groups to our positions, such as women and non-binary individuals. As an employee of Chalmers and CSE department, students are given the opportunity to contribute to our active work within the field of equality and diversity.

Main responsibilities



• Research in the area of foundational cryptography
• Communication of results in the form of academic publications and presentations
• 20% of teaching for the department

Projekt: Hälften av alla typer av barncancer tros uppstå redan under fosterlivet, vilket gör att forskning på de första stegen som ger upphov till cancer är tekniskt svårt att genomföra. Pluripotenta stamceller har potential att i cellodling ge upphov till alla typer av celler i vår kropp, vilket efterliknar definierade processer i embryonal utveckling, och utgör därför ett lovande verktyg för att undersöka de molekylära mekanismerna för malign transformation som sker i prenatala cellpopulationer. Det har dock varit en utmaning att fastställa en direkt ekvivalens mellan celltyper som uppstår in vitro från hPSC och deras motsvarigheter in vivo.

Målet med detta projekt är att utnyttja data från enkelcellsprofilering, både från redan publicerade dataset och från våra egna data från ett nytt hPSC-differentieringsprotokoll, för att etablera en ny uppsättning riktmärken för utvärdering av in vitro-system som modeller för mänsklig utveckling och sjukdom. Vi kommer att använda datadrivna metoder för att 1) definiera de tidiga celldifferentieringsprocesser som driver den mänskliga embryonala utvecklingen in vitro och 2) identifiera cellpopulationer som är mottagliga för prenatala transformationshändelser som leder till leukemi hos barn.

Transkriptionella dataset för enskilda celler kommer att analyseras i Python och R med hjälp av nationella datorresurser (command line), genom clustering och annotering med signaturgener. Identifieringen av utvecklingsbanor kommer att utföras genom testning av de främsta statistiska och bioinformatiska verktygen. Dessa inkluderar visualiseringsmetoder såsom uniform manifold approximation and projection dimensionality reduction (UMAP) och force-directed graphs, partition-based graph abstraction, och Waddington optimal transport. Systematisk jämförelse av utvecklingsbanor som identifierats i mänskliga kulturer och de som finns i publicerade dataset av mänsklig fostervävnad och modellsystem från däggdjur kommer att testas med hjälp av flera publicerade metoder.

Projektbeskrivning
Det övergripande syftet med doktorandprojektet är att skapa en vetenskaplig grund för att stärka och bevara hälsa och välfärd hos fisk i odlingsmiljöer genom fördjupad kunskap om fiskhuden som barriär mot omgivningen. Du kommer att bedriva tillämpad grundforskning, vetenskaplig samverkan och metodutveckling. Du kommer att arbeta med forskning och utveckling inom vattenbruksrelaterad fiskfysiologi, med fokus på att förstå de grundläggande fysiologiska mekanismerna bakom barriärfunktion i fiskhud. Du kommer att studera fiskarter som är viktiga för utvecklingen av ett hållbart svenskt och europeiskt vattenbruk, till exempel lax, regnbåge och havsabborre. Projektet involverar både nationella och internationella samarbetspartners.

Arbetsuppgifter   
Huvuduppgiften är att genomföra avhandlingsarbetet under handledning vilket inkluderar att doktoranden kommer att utveckla sina kunskaper och färdigheter i metodologi, analysförmåga och ämnesteori. Eftersom det fysiologiska fokuset ligger på att förstå de underliggande molekylära mekanismerna bakom fiskhudens barriärfunktion, kommer du att arbeta med och utveckla ex vivo vävnads-, cellulära, molekylära och biokemiska analysmetoder, och genomföra epitelbarriärfunktionsmätningar med hjälp av Ussing-kammarmetodologin men också använda andra typer av epitel in vitro-tekniker, histologi, immunohistokemi och genexpressionsanalys med QPCR. En del av projektet kommer att vara att studera interaktionen mellan patogener (bakterier/virus/svamp) och huden och hur dessa påverkar hudbarriären.

Studierna kommer huvudsakligen att genomföras som laboratoriestudier. Kortare perioder kan också tillbringas som fältarbete eller i ett annat land. Specifika forskningsämnen kopplade till forskningsprojektet inkluderar hudbarriärfunktion, tight junctions, epiteltransport och sårläkning.

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.

Projektets övergripande målsättning är att kartlägga viktiga vesikel-medierade molekylära mekanismer i luftvägsepitelet vid inflammatoriska reaktioner. Specifikt kommer detta doktorandprojekt arbeta utifrån hypotesen att luftvägsepitelceller och deras vesiklar ändrar sina signalmolekyler (protein, RNA och lipider) vid astma och att genom att de gör det så påverkar de den pågående luftvägsinflammation och de celler som är involverade. Projektet innefattar att isolera extracellulära vesiklar från odlade celler, experimentella modeller av astma i möss, samt från patientprover. Signalmolekylerna och hur de förändras vid olika typer av inflammation kommer att analyseras, samt hur luftvägs-vesiklar isolerade vid inflammation påverkar immunsystemet och luftvägsepitelet för att förstå deras roll vid kronisk inflammation. Analys av extracellulära vesiklar och celler kommer bland annat genomföras med hjälp av flödescytometri, masspektrometri, elektronmikroskopering och analys av frisättning av inflammatoriska signaler med hjälp av ELISA. Genom att förstå den kroniska inflammation som uppstår vid astma kan vi identifiera de underliggande mekanismerna och därmed hitta potentiella nya behandlingsmöjligheter.

Detta doktorandprojekt syftar till att undersöka effekten av biologiskt nedbrytbart magnesium (Mg)-baserade implantat på benkvalitet, biomineralisering och benmärgsfett. Syftet är att förbättra den kliniska säkerhetsdesignen för Mg-baserade implantat, vilket säkerställer benhälsa på lång sikt utan att kompromissa med den strukturella integriteten. Magnesium är ett biokompatibelt material som naturligt bryts ned i kroppen, vilket ger betydande fördelar jämfört med permanenta implantat som titan. Nedbrytbarheten av Mg-implantat eliminerar behovet av avlägsnande operationer, vilket minskar risken för långvariga komplikationer som infektioner eller implantatfel. Dessutom kan Mg-nedbrytningsprodukter främja benläkning och modulera immunsvar, vilket gör dem mycket lämpliga för benfixering. Detta är särskilt fördelaktigt för unga och aktiva patienter, eftersom Mg-implantat ger tillfälligt stöd under läkning och undviker komplikationerna i samband med permanenta implantat. Däremot kan överdriven Mg-frisättning påverka benmineralsammansättningen negativt, potentiellt försvaga strukturen hos nybildat ben och öka benmärgsfettan. Dessa farhågor väcker frågor om de långsiktiga effekterna av Mg-implantat på benstyrka och integritet. 

De primära målen för forskningen är att avgöra om Mg förändrar benmineralkristallinitet, påverkar benmekaniska egenskaper eller leder till ihållande ökningar av märgfett, vilket allt kan påverka benhälsan på lång sikt. Detta doktorandprojekt involverar både in vivo-experiment och avancerade analytiska tekniker för att undersöka de biologiska och mekaniska effekterna av Mg-implantat ur ett materialvetenskapligt perspektiv. Detta arbete kommer att ge en grundlig utvärdering av hur Mg interagerar med ben och märg över tid. För doktoranden är de viktigaste lärandemålen att skaffa sig expertis inom experimentell design, genomföra in vivo-studier och använda avancerade metoder för att undersöka interaktioner mellan biomaterial och benvävnad.

Projektet är lämpligt för sökande med erfarenhet inom exempelvis strukturbiologi, biomineralisering och/eller materialvetenskap med inriktning på biomedicinska material. Dokumenterad erfarenhet av elektronmikroskopi, atomkraftsmikroskopi och vibrationsspektroskopi är meriterande.

Projekt: Cancer uppkommer då celler drar på sig arvsmasseförändringar (mutationer) som leder till att tillväxtsignalering ej går att stänga av. Immunsystemet kan känna av att celler är förändrade men inaktiveras av cancercellerna. Inkativeringen kan stoppas av läkemedel kallade immuncheckpointhämmare. Men alla patienters tumörer svarar inte på dessa behandlingar. Dessa patienter kan erbjudas så kallad cellterapi, där man växer patientens immunceller på labb och sedan återför dessa.

Alla patienter svarar inte på cellterapi heller. Syftet med detta projekt är att ta fram en behandling som kan stärka immuncellers förmåga att döda tumören. Doktoranden kommer att utföra experiment för att testa om målinriktade strategier kan vara en väg framåt. Cellterapin kan vara TIL eller CAR-T celler och dessa kan vara mer eller mindre målinriktade. Målinriktad behandlingar kan var biologiska läkemedel eller kemiska molekyler. Experiment kommer att vara både in vitro och en vivo.

Projekt: Utveckling av beroende involverar komplexa biologiska mekanismer och genom att identifiera de biologiska mekanismerna, kan nya farmakologiska behandlingar utvecklas; vilket är det långsiktiga målet med detta doktorandprojekt. Vår tidigare forskning var först med att visa att mag-hjärn-hormoner är måltavlor för behandling av beroende, vilket nu också har visats i kliniska studier. Det idag okänt om en kombination av dessa mag-hjärn-hormoner kan ge en förstärkt behandlingseffekt samt att biverkningarna minskar. Retatrutide är ett nyligen godkänt läkemedel för behandling av diabetes typ 2 samt övervikt, och det verkar genom att påverka mag-hjärn-hormonererna, GLP-1, GIP och glucagon. Vi kommer nu att undersöka om retatrutide kan minska alkoholdrickandet hos gnagare. Vi kommer också att studera om retatrutide också minskar droganvändning samt belöningen som droger orsakar hos gnagare. Dessutom undersöker vi om retatrutide påverkar sexuellt beteende hos möss. Vi kommer slutligen att identifiera mekanismer i hjärnan som är involverade i dessa effekter. Detta är en helt ny infallsvinkel inom beroendeforskning som i slutändan kommer att bidra till ytterligare behandlingsalternativ för personer med beroende. 

Sammanfattningsvis kommer vår forskning fylla ett kunskapsgap inom beroendeforskningen. Eftersom denna typ av läkemedel som studeras redan är godkända för fetma och diabetes, kan kliniska studier genomföras på beroende individer, framför allt de som överviktiga, inom snart framtid. Handledarnas samlade kunskap om beroende, mag-hjärnpeptider och prekliniska modeller skapar en gynnsam och kreativ vetenskaplig atmosfär för doktoranden. Ytterligare fördelar för doktorandens lärandemål och utveckling som en oberoende forskare ges av handledarnas coachningserfarenhet, den translationala arbetsmiljön och den omfattande erfarenheten av handledning på olika nivåer.

Det är meriterande att sökande har godkänd kurs för djurexperimentell verksamhet och därmed behörighet för djurexperimentell forskning. Vidare är önskvärt att sökande har utfört beteendestudier inklusive lokomotoraktivitet, konditionerad plats preferens och drickförsök i råtta/mus. Stor vikt kommer att läggas vid personlig lämplighet samt tidigare erfarenhet av liknande arbete.

Projekt: Det övergripande målet med vår forskning är att fastställa de mekanismer som ligger bakom allvarliga psykiska sjukdomar, inklusive bipolär sjukdom (BD). Mycket data pekar på att mitokondriedysfunktion är inblandat i sjukdomen, vilket delvis har bekräftats i nyligen publicerade cellbaserade studier. Dock saknar vi fortfarande en tydlig förståelse för hur detta är kopplat till riskgener och i vilken utsträckning det relaterar till behandlingssvar med nuvarande stämningsstabiliserande läkemedel.

I detta doktorandprojekt kommer doktoranden både att fortsätta pågående arbete med patientderiverade inducerade pluripotenta stamceller (IPS-celler) och lära sig nya avancerade tekniker inom transkriptionell reglering samt mitokondriell funktion. Doktoranden kommer att vara en del av en stark och internationell forskargrupp samt delta i nationella och internationella samarbeten. Sammantaget kommer detta att förbereda doktoranden för en framtida karriär inom både akademi och industri.

Projekt: Autismspektrumtillstånd (AST) är en neuropsykiatrisk funktionsnedsättning som påverkar hur en person uppfattar och interagerar med andra, vilket leder till utmaningar i social interaktion och kommunikation. I den nuvarande fetmafrämjande miljön står individer med autism inför samma riskfaktorer för fetma som den allmänna befolkningen, men med ytterligare autism-specifika faktorer, såsom begränsade matpreferenser och specialiserade dieter. Övervikt och fetma rapporteras ofta hos individer med fragile X-syndrom (FXS), en monogen orsak till AST.

Syftet med detta projekt är att undersöka de mekanismer som ligger till grund för förändrat ätbeteende vid FXS, med fokus på hur dysreglerad proteinsyntes och molekylära signalvägar påverkar neuronala kretsar inom de basala ganglierna. Som doktorand kommer du att erbjudas en spännande möjlighet att bidra till en samarbetsinriktad forskningsmiljö som förenar grundläggande neurovetenskap med translationala tillvägagångssätt inom neurodevelopmentala sjukdomar. Projektet erbjuder en innovativ translational strategi för att behandla fetma vid AST genom att kombinera klinisk dataanalys med banbrytande tekniker inom neurofarmakologi, elektrofysiologi och beteendeanalys. Forskningsplanen inkluderar celltyp-specifik translatomanalys i striatum hos FXS-möss med genomomfattande upplösning, med hjälp av celltyp-specifik ribosomaffinitetspurifikation för translation. Den här ansatsen kommer att avgöra om cellspecifikt uttryck av fetma-relaterade gener i FXS som mål, ger nya insikter och potentiella terapeutiska tillvägagångssätt för den kliniska populationen.

We constantly encourage individual growth in an open-minded, collaborative, and positive working environment, and look forward to your contribution to the team.

Information about the project and the department
FLEXDIS will analyse the impact that distributed renewable generation have on the grid stability and explore potential solutions based on flexibility from the renewable generation and the demand. The impact of distributed generation will be analysed in terms of frequency and voltage regulation at transmission grid. The existing limitations from distributed renewable generation will be evaluated, in particular inverter-based resources (IBR), in case of power imbalances and faults. Solutions to ensure sufficient power reserve include flexible demand from thermal and electric vehicle loads. The project solutions will be first tested in a simulation and the final validations will be carried out using Hardware-in-the-Loop setups and tests in a living lab. The project outcomes are expected to improve the coordination between transmission and distribution system operators and identify potential modifications in the IBR controls and ancillary services at distribution grid level.

Titel på projektet: Utvecklingen av social preferens i zebrafisk: Implikationer för autismpatofysiologi och farmakologisk behandling

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: En väletablerad klinisk observation är att autistiska individer ofta visar minskad uppmärksamhet till andras ögon och ansikten. Trots att svårigheterna med sociala interaktioner har stor betydelse för individer med autism saknar vi en förståelse för hur sociala preferenser utvecklas och hur neuroaktiva läkemedelssubstanser påverkar socialt beteende. Med tanke på autism-tillståndets komplexitet är det svårt att undersöka den underliggande neurobiologin med enbart studier på människa. För att förstå den tidiga utvecklingen av neurala kretsar som senare är involverade i sociala interaktioner och med största sannolikhet är påverkade hos individer med autism, behöver man använda lämpliga experimentella djurmodeller. Doktorandprojektet kommer att utnyttja flera av de unika möjligheter som modellen för zebrafisk erbjuder för att identifiera viktiga mekanismer för utvecklingen av "den sociala hjärnan" och förmågan att tillgodogöra sig social information. Följaktligen kommer doktoranden undersöka hur oxytocin i relation till signalsubstanserna monoaminer, GABA och glutamat påverkar uppkomsten av social preferens hos zebrafiskyngel, samt den fortsatta utvecklingen av sociala beteenden i vuxna. Vidare kommer doktoranden använda kunskapen från de tidigare experimenten och från ett singel-cell-RNA-sekvenseringsprojekt för att identifiera substanser som aktiverar oxytocin celler vid den mest relevanta tiden i utvecklingen.  

Doktoranden kommer att ingå i en mycket aktiv forskningsmiljö vid Sektionen för farmakologi, i en forskargrupp som är väletablerad inom området social neurovetenskap. Doktoranden kommer att få breda kunskaper inom farmakologi, psykiatri och neurovetenskap samt en fördjupad kunskap om socialt beteende och autism. Forskningsprojektet och utbildningen kring projektet (möten, JCs, seminarier, doktorandkurser, besök på andra laboratorier och konferenser) kommer att ge doktoranden en stabil bas för framtida forskning inom neurovetenskap och farmakologi.

Det är meriterande att sökande har godkänd kurs för djurexperimentell verksamhet och därmed behörighet för djurexperimentellforskning. Vidare är det önskvärt, men inte obligatoriskt, att sökande har erfarenhet av att genomföra beteendestudier på försöksdjur, molekylärgenetiska tekniker, immunohistokemi, mikroskopi och/eller ha expertis gällande statistiska analyser av stora komplexa datamängder. Stor vikt kommer att läggas vid personlig lämplighet och tidigare erfarenhet av liknande arbete.

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.

The position gives a unique opportunity for cutting-edge research in multi-layer network security. The project focuses on enabling resilience, security and reliability of upper-layer network services running on top of optical network infrastructure vulnerable to physical-layer attacks. By developing a new, bottom-up approach to network security and incorporating a physical-layer perspective into fundamental problems related to the design and optimisation of next-generation network services, the candidate will formulate and demonstrate novel techniques for advanced and trustworthy communication networks.

Project description
Critical network infrastructure supporting global Internet communications relies on optical fiber networks, the only future-proof solution for bandwidth-hungry applications, ultra-high capacity, and massive data transmission over long distances. Shared among various network layer services, this infrastructure often operates in harsh, unsecured environments, making it vulnerable to external tampering. Security breaches at the optical layer can disrupt multiple upper layers, jeopardizing services despite application-level security measures.

While security can be managed at various levels, including application access control and traffic inspection, next-generation network planning often overlooks physical-layer security. By assuming an ideal physical layer, recovery efforts are limited to the affected service layer, resulting in suboptimal remediation. This project introduces a bottom-up approach to network security, integrating physical-layer perspectives into the design and optimization of future network services to enhance resilience against attacks targeting optical infrastructure vulnerabilities.

You will join the Fiber-Optic Communications Research Center (FORCE) at Chalmers, a cross-disciplinary team tackling challenges in optical communications, spanning components to networks, analysis to experiments. Collaboration with industry and academic partners is a key aspect of this work.

Major responsibilities
Your major responsibility as PhD student is to pursue your own doctoral studies. You are expected to develop your own scientific concepts and communicate the results of your research in major journals and conferences. Most of the research will be conducted in cross-disciplinary teams. In addition to the research responsibilities, the position includes teaching or other departmental duties of about 10 percent of full time.

Qualifications
The applicant should have a Master's degree in Applied Mathematics, Engineering Physics, Electrical Engineering, or equivalent, with excellent knowledge of digital communications and signal processing. High grades in the core courses are required. Skills in mathematical analysis, modeling, and network algorithms are essential. Analytical thinking, eagerness to understand complex phenomena, creativity and team work are highly valued. Experience in optical communications is not required, but you should have an interest in applying your skills to optical networks. Good communication skills and fluency in English are essential, as are good programming skills. Previous experiences in research, publications, and teaching are also advantageous.

Contract terms
Full-time temporary employment. The position is limited to a maximum of five years.

We offer
Chalmers offers a cultivating and inspiring working environment in the coastal city of Gothenburg.

Projekt: Naturliga mördarceller (NK-celler) är immunceller som spelar en nyckelroll i vårt försvar mot många maligniteter. Beslutet huruvida en NK-cell ska döda en cell som den interagerar med regleras av en rad olika inhiberande och aktiverande receptorer på NK-cellens yta. Var och en av dessa receptorer interagerar med sina motsvarande ligander på målcellen, och integrationen av alla inkommande signaler resulterar antingen i att NK-cellen dödar cellen eller lämnar den utan åtgärd.

En doktorandplats utlyses nu inom forskargruppen ledd av Fredrik Bergh Thorén vid Sahlgrenska Centrum för Cancerforskning. Projektet kommer att fokusera på att utforska NK-cellers interaktioner med cancerceller och på att utveckla nya koncept för att underlätta NK-cellers eliminering av maligna celler.

Projektet kommer att fokusera på extracellulära vesiklar (EV), en heterogen grupp av nanopartiklar med dubbellagersmembran som frisätts av alla celler och är involverade i alla cancerns kännetecken. Det övergripande målet med detta projekt är att beskriva nya mekanismer för cancerutveckling och progression, och hur extracellulära vesiklar kan reglera dessa processer. Vi har nyligen utvecklat en banbrytande metod för att isolera höggradigt renade EV direkt från vävnad (Crescitelli R, Nature Protocols, 2021).

Doktoranden kommer att använda denna nya teknik för att utforska de EV som frisätts i tumörvävnader under olika förhållanden. Största delen av arbetet kommer att utföras på melanomvävnad från möss. Tack vare samarbetet med professor Roger Olofsson-Bagge kommer doktoranden emellertid att ha tillgång till nästan obegränsade mängder färska och frysta tumörprover från människor. I samarbete med professor Jan Lötvall, en pionjär inom EV-fältet, kommer doktoranden att ha tillgång till de mest avancerade teknikerna för isolering och karakterisering av EV. 

Läs mer om Rossella Crescitellis forskargrupp www.gu.se/en/research/rossella-crescitelli

Genom att optimera förhållandena för att samla in tumörvävnads-EV siktar vi på att belysa de vägar genom vilka celler i tumörmikromiljön kommunicerar och hur detta bidrar till tumörprogression. Den kunskap som genereras från detta projekt kommer att förbättra vår grundläggande förståelse för EV, cancer och skapa en plattform för att utveckla framtida terapier och diagnostiska metoder. Arbetet inkluderar användning av cellulära och molekylära metoder, inklusive cellodling, funktionella analyser och proteinanalyser, samt arbete med flödescytometri, elektronmikroskopi och avancerade metoder för isolering och karakterisering av extracellulära vesiklar.

Kandidaten bör ha en bakgrund inom exempelvis cellbiologi (cellodling) och biokemi (Western blotting). Erfarenhet av flödescytometri är meriterande. Kännedom om extracellulära vesiklar, musmodeller och masspektrometri är en fördel. Förmåga att kommunicera på engelska, både skriftligt och muntligt, är nödvändigt. Stor vikt kommer att läggas vid personliga egenskaper som engagemang, initiativ- och samarbetsförmåga.

Projekt: Bägarceller utsöndrar slem som täcker och skyddar våra slemhinnor från stora mängder mikroorganismer. I tarmen och lungorna fungerar bägarcellernas inneboende skyddsfunktion konstant; däremot är slemstrukturerna i den kvinnliga reproduktionstrakten dynamiska och produceras främst under graviditeten. Bägarceller i livmoderhalsen framträder tidigt under graviditeten och utsöndrar en slempropp som blockerar livmoderhalskanalen, förhindrar passage av vaginala bakterier och upprätthåller livmoderns sterilitet. 

Uppåtgående bakteriella infektioner är kopplade till för tidig födsel, den enskilt största orsaken till global neonatal dödlighet. Slemproppens biofysiska egenskaper förändras hos kvinnor med hög risk för för tidig förlossning, vilket antyder ett orsakssamband till försämrad barriärfunktion. Trots dess uppenbara betydelse är mycket lite känt om de molekylära faktorer som bestämmer slemproppens skyddande funktion och hur dessa faktorer kan förändras hos kvinnor med risk för för tidig förlossning.

Detta doktorandprojekt kommer att överbrygga denna kunskapslucka genom att tillämpa avancerade analytiska verktyg för slem för att göra en djupgående molekylär och funktionell karakterisering av prover från slemproppar i livmoderhalsen hos både möss och människor. Detta kommer att användas för att identifiera egenskaper som är associerade med normal graviditet och för tidig förlossning. Genom att adressera dessa mål kommer vi att fördjupa vår förståelse av graviditetsbiologi och potentiellt identifiera nya biomarkörer eller profylaktiska strategier för att diagnostisera och förebygga för tidig födsel.

Titel på projektet: Förståelsen av den funktionella betydelsen av lång icke-kodande RNA kodad proteinet MSEP i cellulära processer i cancerceller

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: Storskaliga sekvenseringstekniker har avslöjat att den proteinkodande delen av genomet utgör nästan 3 %, medan de resterande 97% av däggdjurens genom består av icke-kodande DNA, som transkriberas till tusentals långa icke-kodande RNA (lncRNA). Nya forskningsresultat visar att vissa av dessa lncRNA bär öppna läsramar eller kodande sekvenser (ORF) som ger upphov till korta peptider, vilka har visat sig vara inblandade i cancerrelaterade biologiska funktioner. Trots detta finns det stora kunskapsluckor när det gäller förståelsen av lncRNA-deriverade peptiders funktioner i cellulära processer i normala och cancerceller.

Vår cellcykelbaserade screening har identifierat antisens-RNA-genen AS, som fungerar på RNA-nivå och dessutom kodar för ett nytt 54 kDa-protein, Mitotic Spindle Essential Protein (MSEP). Detta doktorandprojekt syftar till att undersöka hur MSEP medierar specifika funktioner under interfas (kärnfunktioner) och mitos (integritet hos den mitotiska spolen) genom att interagera med proteiner som är kritiska för regleringen av cellcykeln. Eftersom MSEP uppvisar högre uttryck i cancerceller jämfört med normala celler, kommer vi att studera strukturen hos MSEP, både ensamt och i kombination med viktiga cellcykelspecifika proteiner, för att utveckla nya terapeutiska läkemedel som riktar sig mot cancerbehandling.

Vi söker en högmotiverad kandidat med önskvärd bakgrund inom biologi, bioteknik eller biokemi. Kunskaper inom inom cell- och molekylärbiologiska tekniker samt bioinformatik är meriterande, liksom erfarenhet av cellbiologi och proteinbiokemi. Kandidaten bör ha utmärkta färdigheter i skriftlig och muntlig kommunikation på engelska.

Titel på projektet: Undersökning av den molekylära kopplingen mellan åldrande och nukleär RNA-interferens 

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

Projekt: RNA-interferens (RNAi) är en biologisk process som reglerar genuttryck och upprätthåller cellulär homeostas. Störningar i RNAi-signalvägar är kopplade till olika sjukdomar. RNAi-maskineriet involverar huvudsakligen Argonaute (AGO)-proteiner och mikroRNA (miRNA), som binder till budbärar-RNA (mRNA), vilket leder till mRNA-nedbrytning och genhämning. Medan de cytoplasmiska RNAi-mekanismerna är välkarakteriserade, visar nya fynd att RNAi också fungerar inom cellkärnan. I kärnan spelar AGO2 viktiga roller under tidig utveckling men är vanligtvis utesluten från kärnan i mogna, friska celler. Dock har felaktig lokalisering av AGO2 till kärnan observerats under virusinfektioner, cancer och åldrande, ofta korrelerat med dålig sjukdomsprogression. Detta tyder på att inriktning mot nukleärt AGO2 skulle kunna erbjuda en ny terapeutisk strategi för vissa sjukdomar.

Genom att integrera patientderiverade fibroblaster, molekylär profilering och in vivo-metoder syftar detta projekt till att upptäcka den molekylära kopplingen mellan åldrande och nukleär RNAi. Specifikt kommer vi att (1) undersöka RNAi:s roll i cellulärt åldrande (2) utforska föryngring genom läkemedelsbehandling och dess effekt på genreglering (3) använda en åldrandemusmodell för att studera AGO2-medierad RNAi. Forskningen kommer att använda Progeria-patienter, systemisk skleros-patienter och åldrande möss för att studera AGO2:s roll i åldrande. Arbetsflödet inkluderar en läkemedelsscreening för att utvärdera föreningar som påverkar livslängd och AGO2-lokalisering, följt av omfattande analys med RNAseq, miRNAseq-profilering, PAR-CLIP-experiment och proteomikanalys för att utforska genreglering och interaktom.

CHARMEC is supported by Chalmers University of Technology, the Swedish Transport Administration (Trafikverket) and an industrial interest group consisting of nine partners, to whom you will present the research results.

The Challenge
The steel-on-steel contact between railway wheels and rails results in extremely low rolling resistance, but the high contact stresses lead to large plastic deformations and complex crack networks. Currently, it is not possible to simulate these complex crack networks in rails and wheels. In this project, we aim to solve this challenge by using machine learning-enhanced modeling techniques, combined with state-of-the-art computational mechanics methods. This will make it possible to evaluate the influence of these complex crack networks on the rolling contact loading and ultimately the risk of rail and wheel failure.

Information about the division and department
The Department of Microtechnology and Nanoscience (MC2) hosts a unique environment for research and education in photonics, microwave engineering, quantum technologies, and nanofabrication. Our research is supported by an in-house world-class infrastructure for clean-room devise processing (the Nanofabrication Laboratory).

The Photonics Laboratory is a dynamic and creative group of about 35 members working in an international and collaborative atmosphere. We perform both curiosity-driven and applied-research in fiber-optic systems, optoelectronics and silicon photonics. We enjoy a state-of-the-art laboratory for fiber-optic communications and use the Nanofabrication Laboratory to fabricate our own photonic devices. Part of this research efforts focusses on chip-scale photonic devices such as frequency combs and 'noiseless' optical parametric amplifiers based on silicon nitride or thin-film lithium niobate intended for optical communication applications but also other emerging applications. Our research is both experimental and theoretical and we have extensive international collaboration. We also have experience in commercializing our research.

The current position deals with extending the current fiber optical transmission links to cover simultaneous sensing and transmission. For example, the polarization state of light is continuously tracked in coherent photonic receivers, and this tracking data could be used for sensing and concluding if and what environmental perturbation the fiber is exposed to. It is currently unknown how accurate this sensing can be without compromising the data transmission, and the project aims (among other things) to clarify this.

Information about the project and department
This project is part of QuantumStack, a 5-year project funded by the Swedish Foundation for Strategic Research, with the aim of developing a full software stack for programming quantum computers. The project is integrated with the Wallenberg Centre for Quantum Technology (WACQT), a 12-year, billion-SEK initiative started in 2018 with the purpose of advancing Swedish academia and industry to the forefront of quantum technology, and to build a Swedish quantum computer. Our ambitious goal at Chalmers is to build this quantum computer with 100 superconducting qubits and to apply it to real computational problems that cannot be efficiently solved on a conventional computer. Such computationally hard problems are found, e.g., in optimization, quantum chemistry, materials science, machine learning, etc. The position is within the Data Science and AI division at the Department of Computer Science and Engineering, Chalmers University of Technology.

This position is related to developing algorithms for solving useful tasks on noisy intermediate scale quantum (NISQ) computers i.e. quantum computers composed of hundreds of noisy qubits, i.e. qubits that are not error-corrected, and therefore perform imperfect operations in a limited coherence time. Recently there has been a lot of interest in such algorithms to solve problems in optimization, machine learning and quantum simulation. The Ph.D. project will focus on developing such algorithms and exploring both their advantages and limitations compared to classical algorithms running on conventional computers.

This project is funded by SSF, under their call for "Future Software Systems" (in Swedish).

Relevant research papers are:


• Lewis, L., Huang, HY., Tran, V.T. et al. Improved machine learning algorithm for predicting ground state properties. Nat Commun 15, 895 (2024).
• Rouzé, C., Stilck França, D., Onorati, E. et al. Efficient learning of ground and thermal states within phases of matter. Nat Commun 15, 7755 (2024).

As well as a recent paper from our group:


• M.Wanner, D. Dubhashi et al, "Predicting Ground State Properties: Constant Sample Complexity and Deep Learning Algorithms", NeurIPS 2024.

Main responsibilities
Your major responsibility as a postdoc is to develop algorithms for NISQ computers as in the papers described above. This will include both analytical and numerical work, and potentially also communication with experimentalists who can try out the methods that are developed in this project. You may also help in supervising PhD students and/or master's students working on compilation of quantum circuits or similar topics.?????

Qualifications



• PhD in Computer Science, Mathematcs, Physics, or neighbouring fields (obtained before employment begins)
• Excellent communication skills in written and spoken English
• Ability to program in high-level languages such as Python or C
• Familiarity with moder machine learning? theory and applications.??

At the same time, geometrically confining molecules at the nanoscale can alter reaction pathways and it is hypothesized that optical microcavities may offer further, to-date unexplored, handles fur tuning photochemical reactions by significantly enhancing the interaction between light and molecules inside the cavity.

This project combines these paradigms to create integrated nanoarchitectures comprised of optical cavities integrated with nanofluidic systems, enabling simultaneous nanoconfinement of chemical reactants and light. These nanoarchitectures aim to revolutionize photochemical synthesis, unlocking pathways for producing challenging organic compounds such as chiral and bioactive molecules.

The project builds on recent achievements in single-particle catalysis, nanofluidic microscopy, optical microcavities, and photochemistry under confinement by the project team of this research effort that also involves Prof. Timur Shegai and Prof. Angela Grommet at Chalmers and is funded by the Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation:

Join the Langhammer group in developing next-generation nanomaterials that will pioneer cutting-edge hydrogen (H?) sensors to drive the clean energy transition. Work at the forefront of nanotechnology, sustainability, and advanced materials science to develop new materials for safer, more efficient hydrogen energy solutions for a sustainable future.

About the project
The transition to sustainable energy requires new technologies, and hydrogen (H?) plays a key role. However, the flammability of H?-air mixtures necessitates high-performance safety sensors, which current technologies fail to deliver.

The Langhammer group has pioneered plasmonic optical H? sensors (ACS Sensors 2020), utilizing localized surface plasmon resonance in hydride-forming metal nanoparticles. These sensors offer spark-free, fiber-optics-compatible detection with exceptional response and detection limits—ideal for transport, aviation, and confined spaces.

This project aims to:


• Investigate so-called high-entropy alloy (HEA) nanoparticles for their hydrogen sorption properties and induced changes in optical properties.
• Develop a new nanofabrication method for HEA nanoparticles on surfaces using our microshutter tool (ACS Nano 2023), to enable rapid screeing of the hydrogen absorption in many alloy compositions simultaneously.
• Apply advanced multiplexed single-particle optical microscopy (ACS Photonics 2019) to study the HEA nanostructure - H? interaction.
• Investigate how nanostructuring impacts hydride formation thermodynamics and kinetics in HEAs and enables superior H? sorption properties.

Outcomes will contribute to sustainable and safe hydrogen technologies by demonstrating nanostructured HEAs as:


• Efficient solid-state H? storage materials.
• High-performance materials for plasmonic H? sensors.

About the research group:
The Langhammer group at the Chemical Physics Division specializes in nanomaterials science, catalysis, nanoplasmonics, nanofluidics and sensors, focusing on sustainable energy-related nanomaterials.

Wood can be an excellent source for new and innovative material. Do you want work with enzymes, discover new ones and explore how they can contribute to sustainable production of material from wood? The project will focus on discover and exploreenzymes for wood tailoring coupled to functionalization of wood polymers. A cornerstone in the research will be to understand the wood and the effect enzymatic action have on it.

Project description
In this WWSC project, our goal is to discover enzymes that can be used for tailoring and functionalization of wood polymers and wood-derived molecules. By applying characterization methodology of both the structure and the chemistry of the wood-derived streams, we can both identify how the enzyme act on the wood and understand their application potential. The overall aim is to identify glycosyl transferases (GTs) that can act on wood polymers and wood-derived molecules. The starting point will be to discover enzymes from the collection of filamentous fungi the lab has access to from studies of biodiversity in South East Asia. Identified enzymes will be carefully characterized and applied for functionalization.

The project involves molecular biology to clone and heterologously express genes of interest, protein production and purification, and detailed biochemical characterization of identified enzymes, including determination of substrate specificities using wood derived streams. Detailed structural and chemical characterization of the wood-derived streams will be an integrated part of the project. The project will also involve various systems biology approaches to identify new interesting enzymes to study. WWSC provides a network for collaboration with other researchers that are experts in different areas.

Titel på projektet: Interferonstimulerade proteiner vid diffust storcelligt B-cellslymfon - prognos, funktion och behandling

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: Trots framgångar både när det gäller behandling och genetisk klassifikation av diffust storcelligt B-cellslymfom (DLBCL) är det fortfarande mellan 30 och 40 % som dör av sjukdomen. DLBCL är en heterogen sjukdom där både den maligna klonen och tumörmikromiljön bidrar till den varierande kliniska bilden. Komplexiteten kan dock förmodligen inte bara förklaras av genetiska förändringar och det kan också vara svårt att förutsäga om sådana förändringar verkligen påverkar proteinuttryck och därmed tumörcellens egenskaper.

Vi har genom att parallellt studera globalt protein- och genuttryck i tumörvävnad från högriskpatienter funnit överuttryck av interferonstimulerade proteiner, vilket tidigare inte beskrivits vid DLBCL, som ser ut att påverka både prognos och svar på behandling. Interferonstimulerade gener (ISG) spelar en viktig roll i första hand vid antiviral immunitet men de sista åren har det alltmer framkommit att de även kan påverka immunosuppressiva mekanismer vid olika cancerformer och då framkallar både tumörprogression och behandlingsresistens.

Projektets syfte är att testa hypotesen om att interferonstimulerade proteiner har prognostisk betydelse och påverkar uppkomsten av behandlingsresistens vid DLBCL, och de specifika målsättningarna är:


• Att undersöka det prognostiska värdet av digital immunhistokemisk analys av interferonstimulerade proteiner i stora patientmaterial.
• Att undersöka dessa proteiners funktionella roll vid DLBCL:
a. genom in vitro-studier i olika DLBCL-cellinjer
b. genom att kartlägga aktivitet och relevans i associerade signalvägar
c. genom att undersöka den terapeutiska effekten av blockering/nedreglering av sådana gener/proteiner, som “proof-of-concept” in vivo, i DLBCL-musmodeller.

Sökanden förväntas ha mycket god kommunikationsförmåga i engelska, både i tal och skrift. Vidare bör sökanden kunna arbeta självständigt, ha god organisations- och initiativförmåga samt ett uttalat driv för forskning. Stor vikt kommer att läggas vid personlig lämplighet.

Our ambitious goal at Chalmers is to build a quantum computer with 100 superconducting qubits and to apply it to real computational problems that cannot be efficiently solved on a conventional computer. Such computationally hard problems are found, e.g., in optimization, quantum chemistry, materials science, machine learning, etc. Having contributed to starting the research field of superconducting quantum circuits, we are now seeking a PhD student to help in our efforts to build a quantum computer by modelling, analyzing, and improving the design of our quantum processor as we scale it up.

The successful candidate will use theoretical tools to explore how unwanted couplings and crosstalk between qubits in a large processor can be minimized, and fidelities of operations on the processor can be maximized. Achieving these goals will require a judicious choice of both quantum gates to implement and of layout for the processor in terms of qubit frequencies, couplings strengths, and connections.

Information about the project and department
This project is part of the Wallenberg Centre for Quantum Technology (WACQT), a 12-year, 1.5-billion-SEK initiative started in 2018 with the purpose of advancing Swedish academia and industry to the forefront of quantum technology, and to build a Swedish quantum computer. Our team is also a prominent partner in the internationally competitive OpenSuperQPlus collaborative project working to build a quantum computer within the EU Flagship on Quantum Technology.

Building a quantum computer requires a multi-disciplinary effort involving experimental and theoretical physicists, electrical and microwave engineers, computer scientists, software engineers, and researchers in materials science and nanotechnology. We are developing the superconducting quantum devices, control circuits, firmware, and methods required to make the quantum computer a reality. This development takes place is in a close, fruitful collaboration between experimentalists in the Quantum Technology Laboratory (QTL) and theorists at the Applied Quantum Physics Laboratory (AQPL) and the Department for Computer Science and Engineering. In this collaboration, the main tasks of the theorists are to help model the hardware and to develop application use cases for the quantum processor.

Our WACQT team at Chalmers currently has about 100 members (faculty, permanent research staff, postdoctoral researchers, PhD students, and undergraduate students). WACQT is committed to promoting career development, diversity, and gender equality through networking and supporting activities.

Our department, Department of Microtechnology and Nanoscience (MC2), is host to the state-of-the-art MC2 Nanotechnology Laboratory cleanroom, the largest such facility in Northern Europe, and our measurement lab at QTL is well equipped with cryogenic and microwave electronic equipment. We are in a position to build and operate large-scale quantum processors!

Major responsibilities
The main responsibilities of a PhD student at Chalmers consist in pursuing doctoral studies by conducting research within your project, in collaboration and independently, leading to results that you will publish in journals and present at meeting and conferences. The work in this project involves theoretical and numerical modelling of the superconducting quantum processor at the physical level.

Your studies also include coursework in your field and common core courses on generic and transferable skills. The position generally also includes teaching on the undergraduate level or other duties corresponding to up to 20 per cent of working hours.

Qualifications
Required qualifications:


• MSc corresponding to at least 240 higher education credits in Physics, or equivalent
• Excellent communication skills in written and spoken English
• Ability to program in high-level languages such as Python or C

Desired qualifications:


• Experience from working on quantum computing

Join a group that develops two of the most advanced Human Body Models on the market today, the SAFER HBM and the open source VIVA+ HBMs.
Join a group of researchers and PhD-students that work in projects with partners from the vehicle industry known with be in forefront in the passive safety research field.
Join a team that have collaborated with CAE-software developers for years.

Information about the division and the department
The research at the Division of Vehicle Safety investigates why and how often accidents and incidents occur, driver reactions in different traffic situations, and how injuries occur. The Injury Prevention (IP) group is responsible for investigating the injury mechanisms at the micro- to macroscopic levels as well as the dynamic response of the whole human body to externally applied mechanical loads. In 2009, the IP group initiated research activities in the field of Human Body Modelling (HBM) in close collaboration with the industry and SAFER - The Vehicle and Traffic Safety Center at Chalmers. Today, the research at IP mainly focus on the development of HBMs representative of the entire population that can predict the risk of all types of injuries in traditional as well as in novel seating positions. This research is carried out in close collaboration with the Swedish vehicle industry, other Universities, research institutes, government agencies, and insurance companies.

Major responsibilities
With increasing vehicle automation and shared mobility solutions, occupant sitting postures and activities are expected to vary more than in today's vehicles. Development of protection systems adapted for this increases the requirements on the tools that are used. Virtual Human Body Models (HBMs) such as the SAFER HBM have the potential to fulfill these requirements and predict human response and injury risk. Through morphing capabilities, SAFER HBM can represent both women and men of various age, stature, and Body Mass Index (BMI).

The future sitting postures such as reclined alters the kinematics of the occupant in crashes. The loads on the upper and lower torso are altered relative to today's sitting postures which leads to new and added challenges for the restraint system. One of the challenges are to model the pelvis to belt interaction to reduce the pelvis and abdomen injury risk.

Therefore this project aim at improving the biofidelity and torso injury risk prediction capabilities of the SAFER HBM for a variety sitting postures, injury severity levels, across a range of crash situations addressing all vehicle occupants. Project goals include enhancing injury predictions, by including pelvis fracture risk prediction for both female and male occupants of different age and BMI. This means that the morphing capabilities will be further enhanced, and that sex, age and BMI will be considered when developing injury risk functions.
In brief the aim is to develop injury criteria and/or risk functions for pelvis fractures.

Qualifications
To qualify for the position of postdoc, you must hold a doctoral degree awarded no more than three years prior to the application deadline. 


• Expertise in LS-Dyna (or other explicit FE codes) and industry standard pre/post processors.
• Fluent in English (oral and written).

In addition the following skills are meritorious:


• Experience with FE Human Body models.
• Experience related to modeling of bone mechanics (including fracture mechanics).
• You need to be motivated, self-propelled, and have good oral communication skills.

PhD Position in Human Body Models for Safer Seat Belts for All Occupants

Passenger safety is becoming increasingly complex with the rise of automated cars. Factors such as pre-crash occupant kinematics, new seating postures, and seat positions demand a deeper understanding of how these variables influence seatbelt fit and belt-to-occupant interaction.

Passenger safety is becoming increasingly complex with the rise of automated cars. Factors such as pre-crash occupant kinematics, new seating postures, and seat positions demand a deeper understanding of how these variables influence seatbelt fit and belt-to-occupant interaction. This knowledge is critical to improving pre-crash measures and crash protection systems.

As vehicle automation progresses, the need for advanced passenger protection grows more urgent. At the same time, automated vehicles offer sophisticated sensing capabilities that can adapt protection systems to individual needs—provided we possess the expertise to implement these adaptations. To meet these challenges, it is essential to advance our understanding of passenger variations in size, posture, belt fit, and belt-to-occupant interaction. Additionally, there is a pressing need to develop assessment methods that go beyond current standardized crash tests.

Project overview
The project’s objective is to advance the SAFER Human Body Model (HBM) as a tool for developing adaptive and existing restraint systems, ultimately making vehicle travel safer. Key goals include developing test methods and providing design recommendations for restraint systems.

A specific focus of the project is improving the belt-to-occupant interaction by enhancing the shoulder region of the SAFER HBM. This involves using data from innovative volunteer tests to model bone positioning and shoulder stiffness accurately. Additionally, the project will develop safety assessment methods tailored to various passenger sizes, genders, seating postures, seat positions, and levels of vehicle automation.

About the division
The Division of Vehicle Safety at the Department of Mechanics and Maritime Sciences focuses on understanding the causes of accidents, driver behavior in various traffic situations, and the mechanisms of injury. Within this division, the Injury Prevention (IP) group investigates injury mechanisms at both the microscopic and whole-body levels under externally applied mechanical forces.

Since 2009, the IP group has been conducting pioneering research in Human Body Modeling (HBM), working closely with industry and SAFER – The Vehicle and Traffic Safety Center at Chalmers. Today, the group’s research emphasizes the development of HBMs that represent the entire population and predict injury risks in both conventional and novel seating positions. This work is carried out in collaboration with the Swedish automotive industry, universities, research institutes, government agencies, and insurance companies.

Major responsibilities
As a PhD student, your primary responsibility is to conduct your doctoral studies. In this role this will include:


• Developing and refining scientific concepts.
• Presenting research findings both verbally and in writing.
• Enhancing the biomechanical properties of the SAFER HBM’s belt-to-shoulder interaction.
• Validating and verifying the HBM using existing data for applications like accident reconstruction.

The position may also include teaching at Chalmers’ undergraduate level or other duties, comprising up to 20% of your working hours.

Join a young team with a strong national and international network in the field of the rapidly expanding area of metal additive manufacturing, with unique opportunities to develop your skills and knowledge and make a difference for the future by contributing to the sustainable development involving a technology for manufacture of tomorrow!

The main competences at the Department of Industrial and Materials Science are found in the areas of: Human-Technology Interaction | Form and Function | Modeling and Simulation | Product Development | Materials | Production and in the interaction between these areas. The research focuses on the development of the industrial process, from need to finished product while creating added value. To combine skills throughout the whole chain distinguishes the department both nationally and internationally. Here we gather internationally prominent researchers, in dynamic and outstanding research environments, as well as in national and international research networks. 

Information about the research
The national competence centre CAM2 (Centre for Additive Manufacturing – Metal) focuses on material development for powder-based metal AM technologies covering the whole AM chain. The centre is hosted by the Division of Materials and Manufacture at Department of Industrial and Materials Science. The division addresses core research questions related to powder-based metal additive manufacturing, powder technology, surface engineering, 2D-materials like graphene, surface coatings, nanomaterials, metal cutting and grinding.

As part of several research areas which have been launched and developed, we take the next steps to further develop high-resolution and multi-material sinter-based additive manufacturing. Today, the AM group at the division is among the largest groups in AM across Europe with senior researchers, post-docs and PhD students. Recently, the group was granted funding through WISE (Wallenberg Initiative Materials Science for Sustainability) to develop sustainable multi-material additive manufacturing WISE Research Technology Platform withing WISE Additive. Hence, there are recent state-of-the-art installations at PMAM enabling multi-material ceramic/ceramic as well metal/ceramic printing (CeraFab Multi 2M30 from Lithoz GmbH) that will be exploited in the intended post-doc project.

The project will be done in collaboration with Department of Biomaterials at University of Gothenburg, where biological evaluation of the novel materials will be done using in vitro and in vivo models to capture the inflammatory and regenerative response.

We are a young and highly motivated research group working together and supporting each other to advance metal AM in critical areas for this technological advancement. Now we are seeking a post-doctoral researcher with interest in sinter-based multi-material additive manufacturing, in particular high-resolution metal/ceramic and ceramic/ceramic composites, with special focus on development of material for multi-material printing, sintering process development, materials characterization and biological evaluation.

About the project
Integrable systems are a unique class of dynamical systems known for their symmetry-rich structures and predictable behavior, setting them apart from the chaotic dynamics of most systems. These systems are described by differential or difference equations or by iterative maps and play a central role in mathematics and theoretical physics.
Some well-known examples include:


• The Kepler problem
• Nonlinear wave equations (e.g., Korteweg-de Vries and Sine-Gordon)
• Spinning tops studied by Euler, Lagrange, and Kovalevskaya
• The 1- and 2-dimensional Ising model

Integrable systems are deeply rewarding to study for their own intrinsic beauty and their transformative impact on other areas. For example:


• Integrable lattice models have advanced knot theory through innovative tools for constructing invariants.
• Witten’s conjecture (proved by Kontsevich) links nonlinear wave equations to fundamental problems in enumerative geometry.
• The field of integrable probability uses these systems to explain patterns in diverse probabilistic models.

This project is funded by the Swedish Research Council and will be supervised by Associate Professor Martin Hallnäs.



Your role and responsibilities
As a Ph.D. student, you will immerse yourself in an international and collaborative research environment, with opportunities to expand your knowledge, exchange ideas, and travel. Your key responsibilities include:


• Conducting autonomous research in integrable systems.
• Developing original ideas and contributing to the field through publications and presentations.
• Engaging in departmental duties, including teaching (approximately 20% of your time).

Who we are looking for
We encourage applicants from all backgrounds and experiences who are passionate about mathematics and research. To succeed in this role, you should have:


• A solid foundation in mathematics, reflected in strong course grades and undergraduate thesis work.
• A master’s degree (or equivalent 4-year bachelor’s degree) in mathematics or a related field by the start of your employment.
• Effective communication skills in English, both written and oral.

Vid Institutionen för globala studier bedrivs socialantropologisk forskning inom en rad områden som på olika sätt berör kulturella och sociala processer i en globaliserad värld. Traditionellt utmärker sig ämnet vid institutionen av forskning som bygger på långvariga empiriska fältarbeten och deltagande observation. Vidare finns en stark förankring i det vardagsnära, och i hur de praktiker och erfarenheter som är centrala i människors dagliga liv samspelar med övergripande samhälleliga processer.

Institutionen för globala studier utlyser en fakultetsfinansierad doktorandtjänst i socialantropologi på temat hälsa och medicinsk antropologi. Medicinsk antropologi undersöker de sociala mönster som formar reaktioner på sjukdom och lidande och utforskar de varierande erfarenheterna av vård och kroppsliga praktiker som påverkar hälsa och läkande. Medicinsk antropologi omfattar studier av både mikronivåfaktorer, som kliniska interaktioner, och makronivåfaktorer, inklusive skapandet och kommersialiseringen av biomedicinsk kunskap, samt strukturella ojämlikheter i fördelningen av viktiga resurser såsom mat, vatten, hälso- och sjukvård och infrastruktur. Dessa faktorer möjliggör eller begränsar vård, rörlighet och existens för både människor och icke-mänskliga aktörer. Doktoranden kan också undersöka kopplingarna mellan miljö- och hälsofrågor, och utmana den traditionella uppdelningen mellan mänsklig och icke-mänsklig hälsa genom ett mer-än-mänskligt perspektiv. Förslag kan behandla, men är inte begränsade till, frågor som globala folkhälsoprojekt och katastrofinsatser, hälsoaktivism, sjukhusetnografi, utbildning av vårdpersonal, traditionell medicin, samhällsdeltagande och förändringar i vårdsystem, hälsa och migration, digitalisering av hälso- och sjukvård, välmående på arbetsplatsen, psykisk hälsa eller läkemedelsmarknader. Avhandlingsprojektet kan även utforska skärningspunkten mellan mänsklig och icke-mänsklig hälsa genom en kritisk granskning av One Health- eller Planetary Health-ramverk, genom att undersöka vårdinfrastrukturer, livsmedelsproduktion, vattenförvaltning, antibiotikaresistens, spillover, djurvård och avfallshantering.

Arbetsuppgifter

Anställningen omfattar ett års kurser samt framställandet av en vetenskaplig avhandling som bidrar till kunskapsutveckling i ämnet. Doktorandanställningen i socialantropologi syftar till att doktoranden utvecklar förmåga att omsätta uppnådda vetenskapliga färdigheter och kunskaper i fortsatt forskning eller i annat kvalificerat yrkesarbete. Anställningen börjar i augusti 2025 och är tidsbegränsad till fyra år på heltid. I anställningen kan komma att ingå institutionstjänstgöring med upp till 20 % av heltid fördelat över hela studietiden. Vid institutionstjänstgöring förlängs anställningen med motsvarande tid. Doktoranden förväntas att vara verksam vid institutionen i Göteborg och att under det första året genomföra forskarkurser samt påbörja det egna projektet.

Behörighet och bedömningsgrund

Projekt 
Projektets övergripande mål är att studera möjligheterna att utveckla eller förbättra molekylär strålterapi och målinriktad läkemedelsbehandling för cancerpatienter med tumörer som överuttrycker SSTR. Studier kommer att utföras i cellinjer in vitro och in vivo, samt ex vivo i patientbiopsier. Som doktorand kommer du att använda metoder som flödescytometri, luminiscensavläsning, western blot, ELISA, qPCR och immunohistokemi. De flesta patienter med lokaliserade neuroendokrina tumörer (NET) kan botas med nuvarande behandlingar, men de med spridda NET är fortfarande svåra att behandla. Systemisk molekylär radionuklidterapi (MRNT), särskilt med 177Lu-märkta somatostatinanaloger, visar lovande resultat för att rikta in sig på tumörer som överuttrycker somatostatinreceptorer (SSTR), och kombinationen av MRNT och målinriktade läkemedelsbehandlingar kan förbättra behandlingsresultaten. Detta projekt syftar till att utveckla nya radiomärkta SSTR-agonister, utvärdera målinriktade behandlingar för NET, och förbättra behandlingseffektiviteten genom att kombinera dessa terapier.

Titel på projektet: Utveckling av ny cancerdiagnostik

Avdelningen för laboratoriemedicin finns vid Institutionen för biomedicin 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   
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. 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 på olika typer av DNA och RNA molekyler på ett detaljerat sätt i framför allt blodprover för en förbättrad cancervård. Metoderna kommer att appliceras inom flera pågående kliniska studier för att sedan kunna införas i sjukvården. 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. Projekten kommer att fokusera på utveckling av innovativa mättekniker inom cancerdiagnostik och att kartlägga nyttan av blodanalyser vid behandling och uppföljning av cancerpatienter med ett fokus på sarkom och barncancer. Inom projektet kommer doktoranden att arbeta med molekylärbiologiska metoder såsom PCR och sekvensering, 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. För mer information om forskargruppens forskning se: https://www.gu.se/forskning/anders-stahlberg

Vi söker en ambitiös och entusiastisk kandidat med en bakgrund inom exempelvis bioteknik, molekylärbiologi och bioinformatik. Vi värdesätter organisationsförmåga, förmåga att kunna kombinera teknisk expertis med god kommunikationsförmåga, en stark vilja att jobba i team, men också motivationen att kunna arbeta självständigt. Goda kunskaper i engelska är nödvändigt.

We invite applications for a PhD student position within the project, "Improved Use of Out-of-Round Railway Wheel Detectors." This project involves advanced simulations of dynamic vehicle-track interaction combined with extensive field measurements. A digital twin of the detector will be created to train a machine learning model for predicting dynamic wheel loads. The overarching aim is to enhance regulations and procedures concerning damaged railway wheels, focusing on structural reliability, life cycle cost (LCC), and environmental impact.

Project overview

The PhD project seeks to enhance regulations for handling damaged railway wheels. Key tasks include:


• Verifying the accuracy of Wheel Impact Load Detectors (WILDs).
• Improving data interpretation and developing a framework for categorising wheel damage.
• Integrating commercial multibody dynamics software with in-house tools to predict impact loads.
• Developing a digital twin based on extensive field measurements to train a machine learning model for predicting dynamic loads and evaluating the impact of damaged wheels on track integrity.
• Collaborating with the Swedish Transport Administration to establish new regulations.

About the division and department

The project will be part of the activities within the Swedish National Centre of Excellence in Railway Mechanics CHARMEC - Chalmers Railway Mechanics. The long-term CHARMEC research aims at reducing the railway's costs for production, environment, operation and maintenance while improving safety, reliability and transport quality.

The position will be placed at the Division of Dynamics at the Department of Mechanics and Maritime Sciences. As a PhD student you will belong to the Graduate School of Solid and Structural Mechanics.
