This doctoral opening at Malmö University focuses on standardizing multi-omics approaches for research based on oral fluids, with the aim of supporting more reproducible disease-related science. The project title signals an emphasis on bringing together omics technologies and developing more consistent methods for analyzing oral-fluid samples. The position is based at Malmö University, an innovative and internationally oriented university in Sweden. The advert presents the university as a collab...

This PhD position is in medical science at Linköping University and is embedded in a research group working on the modulation and pharmacology of proton-activated chloride channels. The project addresses ion channels that have attracted attention as promising drug targets in areas such as ischemic stroke, cancer and viral entry into cells. The doctoral student will work on understanding how these channels function and how small molecules can modulate their activity. The research combines molecul...

University West is recruiting a doctoral student for a Kamprad-funded project in the research group NormAIL at the Department of Health Sciences. The project sits at the intersection of work-integrated learning (AIL) , caring science and virtual reality (VR) . It focuses on how digital learning environments can support competence development among staff working in municipal elderly care, especially in relation to palliative care for people with dementia. A central part of the research is the use...

This research opportunity is hosted by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER) , in the Office of Rare Diseases, Pediatrics, Urologic and Reproductive Medicine and the Division of Pediatrics and Maternal Health in Silver Spring, Maryland. The project is based at the FDA White Oak Campus, with a hybrid format that includes some in-person participation. The opening focuses on pediatric extrapolation in drug development: using adult and pediatric ...

This fellowship is based within the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta and is hosted by the Division of Diabetes Translation , specifically the Surveillance, Epidemiology, Economics and Statistics Branch . The project offers training in the analysis of large population-based and healthcare databases to support CDC’s work on diabetes burden, prevention, treatment, and outcomes. The fellow will participate in epidemiologic and statistical research on diabetes prevalence, inciden...

The Somyajit laboratory at the University of Southern Denmark invites applications for a fully funded PhD fellowship in the Quantitative Cell Biology and Bioimaging research unit at the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. The project sits at the intersection of cell cycle control, DNA replication, and genome surveillance, and is designed around a fundamental question in how cells cope when their genome doubles. The PhD student will investigate how whole-genome doubling reshapes the...

This PhD project at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU) focuses on RNA-based plant protection, with an emphasis on spray-induced gene silencing (SIGS) as a strategy to combat crop diseases. The work explores how externally applied double-stranded RNA can reduce pathogen gene expression and how RNA reaches target organisms, is taken up, and remains biologically active. The doctoral student will develop and evaluate SIGS approaches against wheat leaf blotch caused by Zymoseptoria...

Luleå University of Technology is seeking a PhD student in Robotics and Artificial Intelligence within the RAI subject at the Department of Computer Science and Electrical and Space Engineering. The position sits in a strong international research environment with access to advanced laboratory equipment and active participation in national, European, and worldwide R&D projects. The RAI group works on fundamental and applied robotics with a particular emphasis on aerial, space, and bioinspired ro...

Örebro University is offering a doctoral position in Mechanical Engineering with a specialisation in wire drawing . The project is based at the School of Science and Technology and is designed to support a doctoral degree through research on more efficient, robust, and sustainable wire drawing processes. The research focuses on steel wire production and on how to improve resource efficiency, material performance, and environmental impact in industrial manufacturing. Working in close collaboratio...
