This postdoctoral project at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences is based in the Department of Forest Mycology and Plant Pathology and focuses on how rye adapts to different environments and how its microbiota may contribute to that adaptation. The successful candidate will lead the genomics component of the project “Eco-evolution of rye and its microbial allies” , working with populations that span wild and weedy relatives, landraces, and inbred high-yielding cultivars. The research...

Postdoctoral researcher in population genomics at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU) in Uppsala, based in the Department of Forest Mycology and Plant Pathology and connected to the Soil Microbiology Group. The project focuses on rye adaptation across contrasting environments, using population genomics to investigate how landrace, wild, weedy and elite rye populations differ genetically and how their associated microbiota may contribute to adaptation. The successful candidate w...

Chalmers University of Technology is seeking a postdoctoral researcher to study self-assembled optical microcavities at the interface of nanophotonics, biophysics, and photochemistry. The research will investigate the use of self-assembled optical microcavities in microfluidic environments for biosensing applications . The postdoctoral researcher will conduct optical experiments, including transmission and reflection spectroscopy, and analyse the resulting data using a range of methods. The work...

Uppsala University is seeking a PhD student in plant evolution to join the Plant Ecology and Evolution program in the Department of Ecology and Genetics. The department is part of the Evolutionary Biology Center, an international research environment focused on fundamental and applied biological questions through an evolutionary perspective. The project, Convergent evolution in buzz-pollinated flowers , investigates how similar floral traits have evolved independently across plant lineages polli...

This doctoral position at Linköping University is centred on applied ethics and a project on ethical questions surrounding age as a basis for prioritization in healthcare . The research focuses on the challenges raised by an aging population and is described as primarily ethical, while also allowing for empirical-ethical elements. The position is embedded in a collaborative setting between the Division of Philosophy and Applied Ethics within the Faculty of Arts and Sciences and Prioriteringscent...

Postdoctoral opportunity at Karolinska Institutet’s Department of Medicine, Huddinge in the research group led by Professor Maria Eriksson. The project investigates the role and functional impact of somatic mutations in ageing and age-associated diseases, with a particular focus on vascular tissue and cardiovascular disease. Using patient samples, animal models and state-of-the-art genomic technologies, including single-cell approaches, the group aims to uncover disease-relevant mechanisms and b...
