I dessa miljöer arbetar vi med olika biologiska organisationsnivåer från gener, via individer och populationer till samhällen och ekosystem. Vi arbetar inom ekologi, evolution, fysiologi, systematik och kombinationer av dessa ämnesområden för att förstå betydelsen av naturliga och av människan skapade miljöförändringar.

Institutionen är placerad på två olika ställen: Natrium på Medicinareberget i Göteborg och Kristinebergs marina forskningsstation. Den aktuella tjänsten är förlagd till Natrium.

Projektbeskrivning

Forskargruppen EDGE lab (edge-ecology.com) söker studentmedarbetare för arbete inom ett projekt med fokus på växtekologi och globala miljöförändringar. Vår forskargrupp studerar hur globala miljöförändringar påverkar växt- och pollinatörssamhällen och hur förändringar i dessa samhällen i sin tur leder till förändringar på ekosystemnivå. Vi inriktar oss framför allt på arktiska och alpina ekosystem, i Sverige och andra delar av världen.

Uppvärmningen av arktiska och alpina områden sker mycket snabbare än resten av jorden, men kunskapen om hur ekosystemen i dessa områden påverkas av klimatförändringarna är fortfarande begränsad. Det övergripande målet för projektet är att undersöka hur upp­värmningen av arktiska områden påverkar växtsamhällen i tundraekosystem. I det aktuella delprojektet arbetar vi med kontrollerade experiment i växtodlingsavdelningen i Natrium. Vi studerar hur lokal anpassning till temperaturförhållanden och andra miljöfaktorer påverkar arktiska växters möjligheter att svara på ändrade klimatförhållanden. Projektet har kopplingar till fältexperiment i Latnjajaure i norra Sverige och det internationella tundra­experimentet ITEX.

Vi är en stor, aktiv och trevlig forskargrupp. För närvarande är vi två forskningsledare, två forskningsingenjörer, tre postdoktorer, sex doktorander, två forskningsbiträden och tre masterstudenter.

The cost of low-carbon technologies has plummeted in the last two decades at the same time as public support for them has waned. Policy-makers face a dilemma – double down on proven solutions like wind and solar or bet on emerging technologies like carbon capture and storage and hydrogen. A new Postdoc position explores this challenge by empirically documenting and tracing the policy support overtime for both new and existing technologies and likely challenging the dominant assumption that once a technology becomes competitive in the market policy support can taper off.

About us 
The postdoctoral position will be based within the Physical Resource Theory Division and the Department of Space Earth and Environment. The Physical Resource Theory Division conducts research and provides education on solutions to major environmental challenges such as climate change , energy transitions, and sustainable land use. Our challenge-driven research is interdisciplinary building on both technical and social sciences using a range of quantitative methods. The division has around 50 staff members, faculty, and PhD-students with diverse expertise including engineers, natural and social scientists. The Department of Space, Earth and Environment focuses on cutting edge science to answer really big questions important for tackling global challenges.


About the research project? 
The position will contribute to a number of ongoing research projects examining the pace and dynamics of policy and technology change as well as to the broader research agenda within the Energy Technology and Policy research group which focuses on understanding the feasibility of climate action and developing approaches for anticipating transitions. The group has a rich international network and a strong funding track record, including with an ERC Starting Grant and as part of a MISTRA network on Low-carbon Electrification in Sweden.

Who we are looking for 
The following requirements are mandatory: 

• We require a PhD degree in economics, environmental science, energy studies, public policy, political science, or related fields of natural and social science with a specialization in energy transitions, energy policy, or energy economics at the graduate level.
• To qualify for the position of postdoc, you must hold a doctoral degree  awarded no more than three years prior to the application deadline*.? 
• You will need strong written and verbal communication skills in English, including a track record of academic writing
• Relevant experience with data analysis and programming (e.g. python or R) and empirical data analysis (including statistics)
• Strong motivation and commitment to scientific inquiry.

You are expected to be somewhat accustomed to teaching, and to demonstrate good potential within research and education.

*The date on your doctoral degree certificate is considered the official date of completion. Exceptions to the three-year eligibility limit may be made for documented circumstances such as parental leave, sick leave, or military service. 

What you will do 

• The candidate will conduct research on the interaction between policy and technology change.
• Participate in supervising master’s and/or PhD students.
• The position can include teaching up to 20%.

We are recruiting a Post doctoral researcher to develop and apply methods for analysing the dynamics of policy change and development of policy-driven technologies. The position will focus on developing new methods to measure and model technological deployment and to identify the role of policies in accelerating and/or re-accelerating the growth of low-carbon technologies. The interdisciplinary post-doc position requires expertise in a range of quantitative social science methods applied both to "softer" kinds of data like texts of policies and political documents as well as to numerical data such as technology deployment. 

The position is meritorious for future roles in academia, industry, or the public sector. 

Contract terms  
The position is a temporary full-time employment for two years with the possibility of a one-year extension.

This is your chance to work in a strong research environment with an interdisciplinary research topic that is very active worldwide. An excellent chance to merit yourself for whatever future career you pursue.

Project overview

Dahlin's research group works with chemically modified nanostructures for various applications. We are interested in developing a new kind of platform for trapping single or very few biological molecules. This will open up new possibilities for analyzing biomolecules and their function, which may ultimately lead to a better understanding of life on the molecular level.

More specifically, we want to study the behavior of proteins. For instance, we believe that the methods we are developing can be used to gain new insights on oligomer formation among certain proteins that are associated with diseases such as neurodegenerative conditions (amyloid formation). By investigating how a very small number of molecules, confined in space to the nanoscale, interact with each other we may be able to understand better how and why toxic oligomers form.

We are also interested in using our technologies to study enzymes, which are nature's catalytic machines. Enzymes are very important for various applications in bioprocessing technology. A better understanding of how they operate, obtained by studying them one by one, can improve various areas of biotechnology and sensor devices.

Finally, the synthetic systems we are developing can be used to mimic biological processes, such as transport of proteins through the membrane surrounding the cell nucleus. By artificially reproducing such processes we can learn more about how the biological machinery works on the molecular level and construct biologically inspired devices in a "bottom up" manner.

Job description

As Doctor, you would contribute to our work on the above topics, although your exact project is subject to discussion and new research directions may emerge. Our broad research field requires knowledge about advanced nanofabrication techniques, fluorescence microscopy and organic chemistry synthesis, among other things. (You are not expected to know everything when you start, but some topic relevance in your background is meriting.) You will work closely together with PhD students and postdocs in the same research group.

Please check this webpage for further information about the research activities in the group: http://www.adahlin.com

Information about the division and the department

The large division of Applied Chemistry consists of 14 independent groups. This division is part of the Department of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering.

Qualifications

To qualify, you must have a doctoral degree in a relevant topic. Good recommendations from your previous supervisor are meriting. Similarly, good publications are meriting but not a formal requirement. The most important qualification is a true interest in science and a strong motivation to do research. Your thesis should ideally be from the fields of physics, chemistry or materials science. However, a PhD in other topics such as life science could also be a suitable background.

Contract terms

The position is a full-time, fixed-term employment limited to a maximum of 360 days. It is intended for candidates holding a PhD and, in practice, the position is equivalent to a postdoctoral researcher.

The candidate should ideally be able to start in January 2026. 

After 360 days, depending on funding availability, a formal postdoc position of 2 or 3 years may be announced to which the candidate may apply.

Do you want to contribute to groundbreaking research in the field of dark matter physics? This is an opportunity for a postdoctoral position at the Division of Subatomic, High-Energy and Plasma Physics, Department of Physics, Chalmers University of Technology, focused on innovative research at the frontiers of astroparticle physics.

About the research project
The selected candidate will focus on two main lines of research. The first concerns the modeling of general dark matter–electron interactions in detector materials. This will be achieved by combining methods from particle and solid state physics in order to effectively describe the response of bound electrons to an external dark matter perturbation.

The second line of research addresses the theoretical investigation of neutrino–electron interactions in liquid xenon detectors, which represent an irreducible background in direct dark matter searches. The expected outcome of this project has several applications to the field of dark matter direct detection and will allow the selected candidate to establish themselves as a leading researcher in an interdisciplinary field at the forefront of science.

The research will be conducted within the Division of Subatomic, High-Energy and Plasma Physics under the supervision of Professor Riccardo Catena. There will also be opportunities to collaborate with Professor Nicola Spaldin, Department of Materials, ETH Zurich.

Our methodologies are equally varied, ranging from theory and computer simulations to experimental investigations.

The theoretical subatomic physics group performs research on nuclear, elementary particle, and astroparticle physics by applying methods from quantum field theory, computational physics, statistics, and applied mathematics.

Within astroparticle physics, our focus spans from the theoretical modeling of systems and phenomena beyond the Standard Model of particle physics to the interpretation of cosmological and astrophysical data on the origin, composition, and evolution of the universe. At present, our studies concentrate on deciphering the elusive nature of dark matter — one of the major unsolved mysteries of modern science. We are particularly interested in modeling its microscopic properties, calculating their observable consequences, and designing strategies to test them experimentally.

Your profile

• A doctoral degree in Physics awarded no more than three years prior to the application deadline*.
• A strong background in particle and astroparticle physics, with a focus on dark matter and neutrinos.
• Strong analytical skills in quantum field theory.

A genuine curiosity for the subject (e.g., demonstrated by participation in conferences or summer/winter schools) and excellent oral and written communication skills are highly valued. Experience with interdisciplinary projects is meritorious.

Knowledge of Swedish is not required, as English is the working language and the group publishes internationally.

*The date on the doctoral degree certificate is considered the official date of completion. Exceptions to the three-year eligibility limit may be made for documented circumstances such as parental leave, sick leave, or military service.

What you will do
The selected candidate’s main responsibility will be to perform analytical and numerical calculations of dark matter– and neutrino-induced electronic transition rates in a wide range of detector materials by combining methods from particle and solid state physics.

The postdoc is also expected to develop independent ideas and tackle complex physics problems, while having the opportunity to co-supervise master’s students in the group.

Hydrogen is expected to play a key role in the energy and fuel mix of future sustainable transport systems. However, due to its small and light molecular structure, hydrogen exhibits significantly different mixing and reactive properties compared to conventional fuels. In this project, turbulent mixing and combustion of hydrogen in air will be studied through optical experiments and numerical modelling to improve our understanding of fundamental processes relevant to combustion engines, gas turbines, and fire safety.

The successful candidate will join a dynamic and diverse research group with an extensive network of national and international collaborators.

Project overview

The aim of this two-year project is to validate and further develop advanced numerical models (originally developed at Chalmers) for turbulent hydrogen mixing and combustion. Optical and laser-based diagnostics will be used on well-defined reference cases to deepen the understanding of hydrogen’s mixing and reactivity.

Numerical work will involve established software tools, such as:


• CHEMKIN-PRO for steady one-dimensional simulations of laminar flames with detailed chemistry.
• CONVERGE for unsteady three-dimensional simulations of turbulent reacting flows.

A novel aspect of the project is the use of highly perturbed laminar flame simulations to inform CFD modelling of turbulent combustion in lean hydrogen-air mixtures.

Experimental work will be conducted in a chamber with optical access, where hydrogen-air mixtures of varying homogeneity and flow conditions will be studied at elevated pressures and temperatures. Ignition and flame properties will be analysed using advanced optical techniques such as:


• High-speed imaging
• Laser-induced fluorescence
• Particle image velocimetry

Experimental and numerical results will be evaluated and compared to refine both the models and measurement methods.

The position is based at the Division of Transport, Energy and Environment within the Department of Mechanics and Maritime Sciences. The division conducts interdisciplinary research on energy efficiency and the environmental impact of transportation. Research topics include vehicle energy converters, fuel properties and sustainability, and shipping impacts on the marine environment. A key focus is on propulsion systems for road vehicles and ships, including combustion engines, fuel cells, and electrified drivetrains. The work combines modelling and experiments and is carried out in close collaboration with industry and academic partners.

Main responsibilities


• Develop a research plan and design test configurations in collaboration with senior researchers.
• Perform numerical simulations of:

• Steady one-dimensional laminar flames with detailed chemistry.
• Unsteady three-dimensional RANS simulations of turbulent combustion.

• Conduct optical experiments on hydrogen-air mixtures using techniques such as schlieren imaging, laser-induced fluorescence, and particle image velocimetry.
• Analyse and compare experimental and numerical results.

We are seeking a postdoc to co-design efficient and realistic simulation algorithms for noisy quantum circuits in superconducting hardware, combining quantum modeling with hardware-aware performance engineering. The work involves simulations for quantum error correction and mid-circuit operations, and will require both low-level optimization skills (e.g., SIMD, GPU, FPGA) and an understanding of quantum simulation trade-offs. The role supports integration with a 25-qubit chip and involves close collaboration with physicists and engineers to push the boundaries of scalable, high-fidelity quantum simulations.

Information about the project
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.

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.

The person taking this position will be working with the team at the computer science and engineering department mostly on the performance engineering and hardware-aware code optimizations to achieve scalability in terms of the simulator systems. The work will be done in close collaboration with the physics team to be able to develop optimizations also at the algorithmic level in a co-design way. Due to the interdisciplinary nature of the work, we are looking for a person with a background in performance engineering and high-performance computing hardware (high-performance CPUs and GPUs) as well modeling of quantum computer systems. This can be either a holder of a PhD in computer science and/or engineering (computer architecture and HPC related topics) with knowledge in quantum computing or a PhD in physics (quantum computing related topic) with knowledge in HPC systems and performance engineering.

Information about the division and the department
At Chalmers, this particular part of the project will be run in the Division of Computer Networks and Systems within the Department of Computer Science and Engineering. Within the Division we have four faculty members, four postdocs and eleven PhD students who are engaged in research in computer architecture. The funding for the group comes mostly from national and EU projects. The faculty members have been awarded prestigious grants for their research such as the ERC advanced grant and also participate in top EU projects such as the European Processor Initiative (EPI) and other EuroHPC projects. The results of the research work are published in highly-ranked conferences and journals in the field.

International students rate the Chalmers education experience as one of the best in Europe, according to results from the International Students Barometer. The quality of teaching and assessment receives particular praise. Additionally, when asked if the University was overall 'a good place to be' students' responses put Chalmers at number one in the world. Chalmers has launched a MSc program in High-Performance Computer Systems and in Data Science, putting the topic of this PhD project in the center of gravity of educational efforts.

Major responsibilities
Your major responsibility as a postdoc is to develop efficient simulation algorithms for quantum computers. This will include both analytical and numerical work, as well as the execution of these algorithms on advanced hardware for optimizing the execution. You may also help in supervising PhD students and/or master's students working on related topics.

Qualifications


• PhD in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Physics, or neighboring fields (obtained before employment begins)
• Excellent communication skills in written and spoken English

This multidisciplinary position is part of a WASP NEST (Novelty, Excellence, Synergy, Teams) project focused on advancing generative models and perceptual understanding in computer vision. The position is embedded in a vibrant research environment that includes several PhD students and postdoctoral researchers.

The project is a close collaboration between the Computer Vision Group at Chalmers, the Robotics, Perception and Learning Lab at KTH, and the Department of Mathematics at KTH. It also involves active engagement with industry partners, including H&M, Volvo Cars, Zenseact, and Embellence Group. The NEST initiative supports regular joint seminars, workshops, and research visits between participating institutions, fostering a dynamic and collaborative atmosphere.

About the research group

The Computer Vision Group at the division of Signal processing and Biomedical Engineering develops intelligent systems for automatic image interpretation and perceptual scene understanding. Our research spans both foundational and applied topics in computer vision and machine learning, with particular strengths in inverse problems, generative models, and geometric deep learning.

We work across diverse application areas, from medical imaging—where we design advanced tools for diagnosis and decision support—to general vision tasks such as autonomous navigation, image-based localization, 3D reconstruction, and object recognition. The group combines theoretical rigor with strong collaborative links to industry and academia, providing an intellectually stimulating environment for researchers interested in both deep technical challenges and real-world impact.

Project overview

In recent years, generative neural network models for creation of photo-realistic images have become increasingly popular. Their training results in a low-dimensional latent space representation of a distribution from which new examples can be drawn and images be generated. To be able to control and manipulate the images, one aims for a disentangled latent representation, so that different qualities of the resulting images are kept separate. For example, the shape of an object can be separated from its material properties, the viewing direction and the overall illumination. In this project, we will go one step further and develop disentangled latent representations, not just for individual objects, but for full three-dimensional scenes with multiple objects that might change over time. The goal is to provide support for operations like adding, modifying and removing objects, changing scene conditions, modelling scene dynamics, as well as automatically complete missing parts of the 3D scene.

Main responsibilities

Your major responsibility as postdoc is to perform your own research in collaboration with other researchers within the NEST. The position also includes supervision of master's and/or PhD students to a certain extent.

The successful candidate will contribute to the multidisciplinary project “3D Scene Perception, Embeddings and Neural Rendering”, led by Fredrik Kahl (Computer Vision, Chalmers), Kathlén Kohn (Algebraic Geometry, KTH), and Mårten Björkman (Robotics, Perception and Learning, KTH).

The research focuses on developing novel machine learning methods for scene interpretation and generative diffusion models. For more information, visit the project website: https://neural3d.github.io

Qualifications

Required:


• A doctoral degree in Computer Vision, Machine Learning, Applied Mathematics, or a closely related field, awarded no more than three years prior to the application deadline*
• Knowledge of computer vision and modern machine learning methods
• Excellent communication skills in English, both written and verbal

Meritorious:


• Strong mathematical background combined with solid programming skills

* The date shown in your doctoral degree certificate is the date we use, as this is the date you have met all requirements for the doctoral degree. Exceptions from the 3-year limit can be made for longer periods resulting from parental leave, sick leave or military service.

Göteborgs universitet möter samhällets utmaningar med mångsidig kunskap. 56 000 studenter och 6 600 medarbetare gör universitetet till en stor och inspirerande arbetsplats. 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.Institutionen för sociologi och arbetsvetenskap har idag cirka 120 anställda lärare, forskare, doktorander och administrativ personal. Vid institutionen bedrivs forskning, undervisning och samverkan inom en rad områden. Här finns forskning om bland annat arbetsmarknad, arbetsliv, sociala avvikelser, brottslighet, digitalisering, emotioner, genus, migration, miljöfrågor, sociala rörelser, styrning och organisation, samt teknik och vetenskap. Forskningsinriktningarna på institutionen koordineras huvudsakligen runt olika seminarieserier, där det ständigt sker korsbefruktning genom att flertalet medarbetare följer mer än en seminarieserie.

Institutionens utbildningar på grund- och avancerad nivå erbjuds inom en rad områden som till exempel sociologi, arbetsvetenskap, personalvetenskap, kriminologi och socialpsykologi. Institutionen har också ett omfattande åtagande på flera av Göteborgs universitets utbildningsprogram, inte minst inom lärarutbildningen, där institutionen bland annat bär huvudansvaret för en kurs i vetenskapligt förhållningssätt på samtliga lärarutbildningsinriktningar. Samverkan och utvecklingsprojekt bedrivs både inom forskning och utbildning med partners inom det privata näringslivet och offentlig sektor, exempelvis Centrum för Global Human Resource Management (CGHRM).

Institutionen för sociologi och arbetsvetenskap söker en biträdande forskare för arbete i det EU-finansierade projektet “Magnitude: Migration, Affective Geopolitics and European Democracy in times of Military Conflicts” (MAGnituDe). MAGnituDe undersöker konsekvenserna av massmigration till EU orsakad av Rysslands invasion av Ukraina för den europeiska demokratin. Projektet ska bl.a. tillhandahålla evidensbaserade strategier för att återställa demokratisk styrning som svar på krigets negativa sociala konsekvenser för de europeiska samhällena.
