The University of Bern is offering a PhD position in the multicenter project PRECISE-MDD , investigating precision treatment selection in major depressive disorder. The study is a triple-blind randomized controlled trial examining whether EEG- and ECG-based biomarkers can predict the therapeutic effects of antidepressants, repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation, ketamine and electroconvulsive therapy in patients with unipolar depression. At the Bern study center, the doctoral researcher wi...

The Department of Chemistry at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) is offering a three-year PhD project focused on battery chemistry and magnetic resonance. The research aims to understand how batteries operate and fail at the molecular level, supporting the design of safer, longer-lasting and higher-performing energy-storage materials. Working under the supervision of Assistant Professor Leo W. Gordon, the PhD researcher will develop and apply nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) characteriza...

The Technical University of Denmark (DTU) Space is offering a PhD project focused on the development of advanced radiofrequency detectors and antennas for next-generation magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). MRI scanners typically use radiofrequency detectors to image hydrogen in water molecules. This project aims to extend MRI to other nuclei by developing a broadband, multinuclear detector array capable of covering the frequencies of multiple nuclei. The intended outcome is a detector system suit...

This PhD project at the Department of Chemistry, Technical University of Denmark (DTU) explores how batteries work and fail at the molecular level, with the goal of informing better materials for safer, longer-lasting, higher-performing energy storage. The research combines magnetic resonance and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) with electrochemical methods to investigate battery materials and components in a non-destructive, chemically specific way. You will help develop and apply a suite of NM...
