The Numerical Analysis group within the Delft Institute of Applied Mathematics at TU Delft is offering a full-time PhD position focused on efficient structure-preserving finite element methods for time-dependent PDEs . The project asks how numerical simulations can be designed so that they do not merely approximate physical laws, but preserve important mathematical and physical structure exactly. You will work on the construction of structure-preserving discretizations for time-dependent partial...

The University of Manchester is recruiting a PhD student to join its Mathematical Biomedicine Group through an international strategic partnership with the University of Bergen in Norway. This project investigates whether mathematical modelling can help personalise hormone replacement therapies for people living with Addison's disease. Conventional cortisol replacement treatments can struggle to reproduce the natural daily rhythms of this essential hormone. The research will explore personalised...
