(11) PhD Position – Fully Funded

PhD position summary/title:–Doctoral student in Biology

Biology is the broad subject about all living things. It encompasses everything from processes at the molecular and cellular level to global processes at ecosystem level. The subject is divided into a range of sub-disciplines and specialisations. The PhD programme at the Department of Biology includes many of these specialisations, from molecular biology to applied ecology, from viruses and individual cells to evolutionary biology and global biodiversity. Taking on research studies at the Department of Biology generally means focusing on a delimited part of the research area of biology and may include field studies, experiments, theoretical studies, or a combination of these.

(12) PhD Position – Fully Funded

PhD position summary/title:–Doctoral Student in Automatic Control with focus on Robotics

We are hiring a doctoral student within a project on Robotic Manipulation with Extrinsic Dexterity. This PhD project is dedicated to enhancing autonomous robots’ ability to interact with their environment and manipulate objects, despite the limited dexterity of their grippers, through refined hand-arm coordination and external contacts (extrinsic dexterity). It focuses on developing adaptive robot motion/force control strategies for object manipulation in case of frictional contacts,  capable of learning from and adjusting to environmental uncertainties, utilizing nonlinear control and machine learning techniques.

(13) PhD Position – Fully Funded

PhD position summary/title:–Doctoral Students in Automatic Control

We are hiring two doctoral students for two different projects:
1) “Synthesizing Second-Life Batteries: A Heterogeneous Control Approach” funded by the Swedish government COMPEL – COMPetence for the ELectrification of the transport system.
Background: Batteries are central to supporting the renewable energy transition. However, there is a significant environmental and financial cost associated with the production of new batteries. The potential of repurposing retired batteries from various applications, such as electric vehicles, for use in areas like grid support, presents a unique and sustainable avenue to reduce these impacts and accelerate the use of batteries. This project aims to explore the feasibility of assembling used batteries, no longer fit for their original purpose, to create ‘new’ batteries that can provide robust grid support. The basic idea is to connect many smaller, retired batteries to create a larger, heterogeneous battery. By exploiting advanced control theoretic techniques developed for interconnected heterogeneous systems, methods will be developed to quantify the capabilities and capacities of this hybrid battery, optimizing them for the new application domain. 

2) “Scalable Optimization for Learning in Control” funded by ELLIIT, a strategic research area for IT and mobile communication.
Background: Large-scale engineering applications put new demands on control theory, as most existing methods for analysis, design and verification do not scale well with increasing complexity. Furthermore, new powerful algorithms for machine learning are increasingly being used for control engineering purposes, further adding to the complexity of analysis and verification. To counteract this, there is a strong demand for scalable algorithms and corresponding information interfaces. Important applications areas are networks for energy, transportation and communications. The purpose of the proposed project is to address the complexity challenges by developing and exploiting new algorithms suitable for distributed implementation.

(14) PhD Position – Fully Funded

PhD position summary/title:–Doctoral student in Analytical Chemistry with focus on cell-based miniaturized electroanalytical systems

Analytical chemistry is one of the fundamental chemistry subjects that aims at developing new analytical techniques and methods to identify, quantify and study the structure and function of molecules within a range of fields such as food science, environmental science, biotechnology/bioenergy, medical, and pharmaceutical science.

The PhD student will be placed within the Centre for Analysis and Synthesis (CAS) at the Department of Chemistry, which is a highly international unit that strives for fair treatment and gender equality. The position is funded by a Swedish Research Council project and is linked to the highly cross-disciplinary EU project OpenMIND (https://openmind.dtu.dk), funded by the EIC Pathfinder program. This means that it involves close collaboration with researchers at Developmental and Regenerative Neurobiology at Wallenberg Neuroscience Centre (https://www.lunduniversity.lu.se/lucat/group/v1000406), Division of Applied Microbiology (www.tmb.lth.se), and the Department of Biotechnology and Biomedicine, Technical University of Denmark in Kgs. Lyngby, Denmark (www.bioengineering.dtu.dk). The position is a great opportunity to conduct groundbreaking research with international authorities in the different fields and with the opportunity for international research stays and visits.

The purpose of the PhD project is to develop cell-based miniaturized electroanalytical systems in close collaboration with PhD students and postdocs in the OpenMIND project with the aim to study how gut microorganisms and their metabolites may influence the gut-brain axis with focus on Parkinson´s disease (PD).

(15) PhD Position – Fully Funded

PhD position summary/title:–Doctoral student in Biology

Ecology and evolution of phenotypic plasticity in Trinidadian guppies.

The overall goal of the PhD project is to better understand how the environment affects genetic and phenotypic variation, and how these insights can be used to improve predictions of evolution.

Evolutionary change happens constantly all around us. This contemporary evolution can allow populations to adapt and persist, or contribute to their decline and extinction. Which of the two it will be is often unclear because current methods to predict microevolution work poorly in natural populations. Considering the global environmental crisis, this is particularly alarming. A key cause of the predictive inaccuracy is environmental variation.

This PhD project will investigate environmental effects on additive genetic (co)variances, narrow-sense heritabilities, and evolvabilities. Additionally, as resource availability is a crucial aspect of the environment in many species, it will evaluate to what extent including information on individual resource accrual can reduce environmental bias. The project will combine quantitative genetic experiments in a newly established, state-of-the-art fish research laboratory with analyses of long-term field data, using the well-known Trinidadian guppy system. The successful candidate will have a keen interest in evolutionary biology, quantitative genetics, or related fields. A curious mind, a sense of responsibility, and excellent organisational skills are strong additional merits for the position.

Lund University has nine faculties, with additional campuses in the cities of Malmö and Helsingborg, with 40,000 students in 270 different programmes and 1,300 freestanding courses. The university has some 600 partner universities in nearly 70 countries and it belongs to the League of European Research Universities as well as the global Universitas 21 network. Lund University is consistently ranked among the world’s top 100 universities.

Two major facilities for materials research are in Lund University: MAX IV, a synchrotron radiation laboratory – inaugurated in June 2016, and European Spallation Source (ESS), a new European facility that will provide up to 100 times brighter neutron beams than existing facilities today, to be opened in 2023.
