About this position

Stockholms universitet is advertising a PhD position in Analytical Chemistry within nano-enabled medical devices for precision healthcare. The project sits at Kemikum and combines analytical chemistry, nanomaterials, biomaterials, medical devices, and nanotechnology.

The research focuses on designing and synthesizing functional nanomaterials using flame spray pyrolysis, then integrating them into medical-device platforms through aerosol-based coating and deposition. Application areas include wound dressings, microneedle systems, biosensors, and other advanced biomaterial-based products. A major theme is understanding the relationship between structure, properties, and function, including how composition, morphology, crystallinity, surface chemistry, and nanoscale architecture affect biological responses and device performance.

The position is hosted by Stockholms universitet in Stockholm, Sweden. The department describes strong research infrastructure and an interdisciplinary environment spanning analytical chemistry, physical chemistry, materials chemistry, inorganic chemistry, and organic chemistry. The doctoral student will work in a collaborative international setting and is expected to contribute to publications and conference presentations.

Eligibility highlights: applicants must meet general doctoral admission requirements and specific eligibility in analytical chemistry. Required background includes chemistry coursework, advanced-level analytical chemistry, and an independent advanced-level thesis in analytical chemistry. Selection also considers materials science knowledge, analytical instrumentation, nanomaterial synthesis, material characterization, initiative, independence, teamwork, and English communication skills.

Funding: this is a paid doctoral employment, time-limited for up to four years full-time, with limited teaching/research/administrative duties possible.

Deadline: 2026-08-09.

How to apply: submit the application through Stockholm University’s recruitment system. Include a cover letter, CV, and all requested attachments. Make sure the application is complete before the deadline.
