Doctoral studentship in Technology with focus on integrating animal welfare Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences in Sweden

Trees For Me is seeking a PhD student in forest genetics to join a research environment based at Skogforsk, in collaboration with the Southern Swedish Forest Research Centre at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU). The doctoral project will investigate how flowering and seed production can improve silver birch breeding . By examining these reproductive processes, the research aims to support the development of more productive and resilient birch forests and contribute to sustain...

PhD opportunity at the University of St Andrews in the School of Psychology and Neuroscience, within the EASTBIO/BBSRC Doctoral Training Partnership. This project is titled “Mapping the gut microbiome of an understudied poultry species: environmental and nutritional drivers of resilience in African Guinea fowl.” It sits at the intersection of biology , agriculture , microbiology , bioinformatics , environmental science , and statistics , with a strong focus on host–microbe interactions, animal w...

Postdoctoral position in Tropical Forest Ecology, Terrestrial Laser Scanning and Forest Biomass Dynamics at the University of Gothenburg , Department of Biological and Environmental Sciences (BioEnv), Sweden. This postdoc is part of TWIG , a five-year ERC Starting Grant project focused on tropical forest ecology, terrestrial laser scanning (TLS), forest biomass dynamics, forest carbon balance, and reproducible computational analysis. The project aims to combine repeated TLS with long-term forest...

This PhD project at the Department of Biosystems and Technology , Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU), explores how green biomass from agriculture can be used more sustainably in integrated systems for green biorefineries and biogas production . The project is rooted in the transition toward a circular, fossil-independent bioeconomy and focuses on biomass sources such as crop residues and catch crops , which may be available without increasing competition for farmland and food prod...

The University of Birmingham is offering a fully funded PhD opportunity through the Midlands Integrative Biosciences Training Partnership, focused on the intersection of soil microbiomes, artificial intelligence and life cycle assessment for climate-resilient urban green infrastructure. The project will investigate the biological mechanisms that underpin urban soil functionality and explore how bioscience data can be embedded into life cycle assessment models. By connecting soil microbiology wit...
