This postdoctoral project at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences is based in the Department of Forest Mycology and Plant Pathology and focuses on how rye adapts to different environments and how its microbiota may contribute to that adaptation. The successful candidate will lead the genomics component of the project “Eco-evolution of rye and its microbial allies” , working with populations that span wild and weedy relatives, landraces, and inbred high-yielding cultivars. The research...

Postdoctoral researcher in population genomics at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU) in Uppsala, based in the Department of Forest Mycology and Plant Pathology and connected to the Soil Microbiology Group. The project focuses on rye adaptation across contrasting environments, using population genomics to investigate how landrace, wild, weedy and elite rye populations differ genetically and how their associated microbiota may contribute to adaptation. The successful candidate w...

This postdoctoral position is based at Dalarna University and focuses on district heating systems and positive energy districts as part of research on sustainable urban energy systems. The successful candidate will join a research group working on renewable, smart, resource-efficient and cost-effective energy concepts, with particular attention to how heat and electricity can be integrated with urban infrastructure. The project involves advanced research on the modelling of district heating syst...

KTH Royal Institute of Technology is seeking a postdoctoral researcher to advance solar energy solutions suited to Scandinavian climates. The project focuses on photovoltaic-thermal (PVT) systems and air-based heat recovery, combining experimental investigation with advanced computational modelling.
