About this position
GRAIL (Gamma Radiation from the Atmosphere for Investigation and Learning) is recruiting 15 PhD/Doctoral Candidates across Europe under an EU Horizon Europe Marie Skłodowska-Curie Doctoral Network. The network focuses on high-energy atmospheric physics, including terrestrial gamma-ray flashes (TGFs), gamma-ray glows (GRGs), thunderstorm ground enhancements (TGEs), lightning-related high-energy emissions, radiation risk, and advanced measurement and simulation methods.
The post shared by Irfan Kuvvetli highlights a specific opportunity at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU Space): DC12, centered on intelligent CZT detector development for transient gamma-ray missions. The project includes full waveform readout, neural network signal processing, and performance testing, making it especially relevant for students interested in detectors, space instrumentation, electronics, and data science.
The broader GRAIL network also includes projects at universities and research institutes in Norway, Armenia, Spain, Germany, France, and elsewhere, with topics spanning atmospheric electricity, gamma-ray detection, simulation, radio-frequency emissions, avionics risk, and radiation effects. Training is structured and international, with cross-sector secondments and collaborative research across the consortium.
Eligibility: applicants must satisfy the Horizon Europe Doctoral Network mobility rule, meaning they must not have lived or worked in the host country for more than 12 months in the last 36 months. The post is aimed at doctoral candidates; no master’s or postdoctoral opening is indicated.
Funding: the positions are fully funded PhD scholarships within the Horizon Europe network. The post does not state a stipend amount.
Application: explore the full list of positions and apply via the linked GRAIL announcements/application page. Review the project descriptions carefully and select the doctoral candidate position that matches your background and interests.
