PhD, Master’s & Postdoc Opportunities in Physics in Finland

The University of Turku is recruiting a doctoral researcher at the Turku PET Centre in Finland through the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions PREFERENCE Doctoral Network. The project, “Effect of ischemic heart disease on multiorgan perfusion,” focuses on using long axial field-of-view (LAFOV) PET/CT to study cardiovascular disease and whole-body biological processes. The doctoral researcher will conduct hands-on clinical research to improve the use of LAFOV PET/CT in patient care. The work will deve...

This postdoctoral project sits at the intersection of semiconductor physics, thin-film metrology, and prototype instrumentation for the semiconductor industry. It is part of the ATOMEL initiative, a Business Finland Research-to-Business commercialization project aimed at turning an academic innovation in scanning-probe-based thin-film characterization and electrical metrology into a new deep-tech venture. The successful researcher will take primary scientific and experimental ownership of the se...

Electronics Integration and Reliability (EILB) at Aalto University School of Electrical Engineering is seeking a doctoral researcher to work on the next generation of high-density power electronics. The group develops innovative materials, device design, and bonding technologies for wide-bandgap and ultra-wide-bandgap semiconductor systems, with applications extending to RF devices and smart sensors. The project centers on miniaturised heterogeneous integration for power electronics, using novel...

The postdoctoral researcher will join the Department of Physics, an internationally recognized and dynamic research community with strengths in materials physics, nuclear physics, and particle physics. The department’s research environment combines experimental faciliti...

The Department of Physics at the University of Jyväskylä is recruiting a Postdoctoral Researcher in Accelerator-Based Neutron Physics for BNCT for a project-based two-year appointment. The project focuses on realizing a new Neutron Beam Line for a 3 MV Tandetron accelerator, with the beamline scheduled to support research after delivery of the accelerator in 2026. The main research responsibilities centre on the design and simulation of the neutron beam line, especially the lithium target and be...

The Barrett lab at the University of Helsinki is recruiting a post-doctoral researcher to work at the intersection of computational genomics, multiomic data analysis, and predictive medicine. The project aims to discover, understand, and measure mechanistically meaningful subtypes of complex human diseases, with a strong emphasis on moving beyond clinical phenotype to molecular and biological endotypes. The lab is newly established and sits within a rich research environment spanning the Univers...

The Barrett lab at the University of Helsinki is recruiting a doctoral researcher to work on computational genomics for predictive medicine . The project sits at the intersection of genomics, multiomic data analysis, and machine learning, with a scientific goal of identifying mechanistically meaningful subtypes of complex human diseases. Rather than focusing only on observed clinical phenotypes, the lab aims to characterize diseases through molecular and biological endotypes that can better supp...

This doctoral position sits within the FAroGels MSCA Doctoral Network and the Department of Food and Nutrition at the University of Helsinki’s Faculty of Agriculture and Forestry. The project, “Aerogels for Oral Lubrication,” explores how dietary-fibre aerogels and cryogels can be designed as functional porous, moisture-responsive materials for food applications, with a particular focus on texture, mouthfeel, and oral processing. The doctoral researcher will investigate how fibre-network organis...

The University of Turku is seeking a postdoctoral researcher to study how human mobility and infectious disease spread have been shaped by ecological and social factors. The position is based in the Department of Biology and is part of the Human Diversity Centre of Excellence, an interdisciplinary research consortium funded by the Research Council of Finland. The project investigates past human contacts, including migration rates between local communities, and how these movements influenced the ...
