Postdoc Opportunities in Chemistry in Norway

Research Council of Norway Researcher Project for Young Talents is a funding opportunity for early-career researchers who want to develop and lead their own research project. The scheme is open across all disciplines and research areas, and is designed for talented young researchers under the age of 40 who are 2–7 years after the defence of an approved doctorate. The emphasis is on strong scientific quality and on giving applicants the opportunity to pursue their own research ideas as project le...

We invite applications for a Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Marine Plankton Biology at the Department of Biosciences, University of Oslo , Norway. This is a full-time, temporary postdoctoral appointment (37.5 hours per week) associated with the ToxANoWa II project: Toxic microalgae in Norwegian waters — Providing knowledge and methods necessary for monitoring of algal toxins and algae harmful to fish . The project is funded by the Norwegian Seafood Research Fund (FHF) and aims to improve knowle...

The Norwegian University of Life Sciences (NMBU), through the Faculty of Chemistry, Biotechnology and Food Science (KBM), is recruiting a postdoctoral fellow in photobiocatalysis and AI-based protein design. The three-year, full-time position is located at the NMBU campus in Ås, Norway, with a possible extension to four years including teaching. The project aims to design entirely new enzymes that use light to drive selective chemical reactions in water under mild conditions, reducing reliance o...

Postdoctoral Research Fellow position at the Michael Sars Centre, University of Bergen, in the Čapek group. The project, Mechanisms of temperature robustness in fish embryos , asks how fish embryos maintain coordinated development when temperature changes the rates of molecular and cellular processes. The successful candidate will investigate how temperature influences developmental signalling and gene expression, and how these responses connect to cell-fate specification, tissue organisation an...

Postdoctoral Fellow in Heterogeneous Catalysis at the University of Stavanger (UiS), Faculty of Science and Technology, Department of Energy and Petroleum Engineering. The position is part of the Horizon Europe project BioHAVEN: Boosting H2 production from high water content biowaste with negative carbon emissions . The research focuses on heterogeneous catalysis , hydrogen production , hydrothermal gasification , methane pyrolysis , biowaste conversion , and related catalyst development and tes...

Postdoctoral Research Fellow position at the Centre for Cancer Biomarkers (CCBIO), University of Bergen, Norway. The project investigates how nerves interact with breast cancer, combining organoids, stem cell-derived neurons, patient tissue, single-cell sequencing, and spatial profiling. This is a strong fit for candidates interested in cancer biology, neuroscience, translational biomedical research, and computational/experimental single-cell analysis. The post specifically highlights applicants...
