Postdoc Opportunities in Public Health in Finland

The University of Oulu’s Faculty of Technology is seeking a postdoctoral researcher for a three-year project in hydrological and ecosystem modelling within the Water, Energy and Environmental Engineering Unit. The research investigates how hydrological and biogeochemical processes interact with terrestrial ecosystems and climate systems in Arctic and boreal environments. The researcher will develop and apply numerical models to simulate water and nutrient fluxes, carbon mobilisation and lateral ...

The University of Jyväskylä is advertising two postdoctoral researcher positions in applied language studies at the Centre for Applied Language Studies (Solki). Solki is a university research institute that produces research-based knowledge on language education and on language-related phenomena, needs, and challenges in a changing society. The centre’s research is organised around three main areas: the assessment of language proficiency and learning, language learning/teaching/competence, and l...

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...

This postdoctoral position is based in the Global Change and Biotic Interactions Ecology group at the University of Oulu and is part of the Research Council of Finland-funded project “Mechanisms of Plant Biodiversity Change” . The project is led by Prof. Anu Eskelinen and focuses on understanding why plant biodiversity changes unevenly across space and in response to global change. The successful researcher will work on questions about the mechanisms shaping plant community change, including the...

The University of Oulu is recruiting a Postdoctoral Researcher for the General Education Research unit at the Faculty of Education and Psychology. The role sits within DATAVOID (From a Void to the Cloud? Data Centres in the Afterlives of Arctic Industries), an interdisciplinary research project examining how data centres emerge in post-industrial northern communities and how they relate to the legacies of earlier industries. The post is designed for a researcher who will develop a comparative st...

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 ...

Planetary Mind is a multidisciplinary research project in the Department of Psychology at the University of Jyväskylä. The project examines how environmental agency —the ability to make sustainable everyday choices—relates to mental health across age groups. The postdoctoral researcher will contribute to a consortium project that brings together professors, postdoctoral researchers, doctoral researchers, an interaction specialist, a project manager, and national and international collaborators. ...

The University of Helsinki invites applications for two three-year postdoctoral researcher positions in coastal marine science within CoastClim , the Centre for Coastal Ecosystem and Climate Change Research. The first position focuses on coastal sediment microbial ecology and biogeochemistry . The researcher will investigate how benthic biodiversity regulates carbon processing in healthy and degraded coastal ecosystems, with potential work on microbial controls of sediment carbon mineralization,...
