1. Fully Funded PhD Position in bioinformatics
Summary of PhD Program:
Turku Medical Bioinformatics Centre (https://elolab.utu.fi) at Turku Bioscience Centre is looking for a postdoctoral or doctoral researcher for projects that identifies molecular factors and their regulatory networks involved in human diseases. Using large-scale omics datasets and computational methods, the project studies, how the human immune system functions and how this understanding could be utilized in developing new treatments for immune-mediated diseases and cancer. The research employs statistical and machine learning methods as well as bioinformatics tools. The project is carried out in close collaboration with biomedical research teams.
Application Deadline: 12 June 2024
2. Fully Funded PhD Position in AI-assisted photosynthetic devices
Summary of PhD Program:
Our group is pioneering cutting-edge technology for photosynthetic production of chemicals and fuels using 3-D printed biocatalysts, also known as solid-state photosynthetic cell factories. For this purpose, we are developing intelligent matrices comprising photosynthetic cells and functional nanomaterials integrated with a network of sensors for monitoring and controlling photosynthetic production.
The PhD student will play a pivotal role in establishing infrastructure for AI-assisted cultivation and developing protocols for data collection, processing, and digitalization, enabling data-driven modelling and optimization. The PhD project involves a close collaboration with Prof. Milica Todorovic, head of the Materials Informatics Laboratory at the University of Turku. Her research combines artificial intelligence algorithms and first-principles simulations with the objective to optimize functional materials and their performance in devices.
Application Deadline: 3 June 2024
