Candidates interested in fully funded PhD positions can check the details and may apply as soon as possible. Interested and eligible applicants may submit their online application for PhD programs via the University’s Online Application Portal.
1. Fully Funded PhD Position in Chemistry, with a specialization in biochemistry
Summary of PhD Program:
In your PhD studies, you will use molecular biology/biochemistry approaches to characterize drug resistance mechanisms in representative species groups of the human microbiome. This will involve using genetic manipulation, high throughput growth measurements and biochemistry approaches for protein structure and function determination (e.g., X-ray crystallography, NMR, cryo-electron microscopy). You will learn how to use advanced bacterial culture conditions to grow the species of the human gut microbiome in the absence of oxygen. You will also learn how to analyze large datasets.
Application Deadline: 2025-05-31
2. Fully Funded PhD Position in Medical Science
Summary of PhD Program:
The aging brain undergoes several changes that can lead to cognitive decline and dementia. Brain changes that are of particularly importance for individual differences in cognitive aging remain, however, currently inconclusive. This project will investigate associations between aging-related brain changes, e.g., the dopamine decline, cerebral-small vessel disease, inflammation and build-up of b-amyloid and phosphorylated tau, in relation to cognitive performance in healthy older adults.

3. Fully Funded PhD Position in Computing Science with focus on Compilation of Linear Algebra Expressionst
Summary of PhD Program:
Linear algebra expressions are evaluated in an efficient and robust way by mapping them to a carefully chosen sequence of calls to optimized functions as offered by libraries such as BLAS and LAPACK. The mapping is by no means unique, and different mappings differ in terms of time, space, and accuracy. When the sizes of the matrices are unknown at compile-time, as is often the case, then the problem is further complicated by the fact that no single mapping is optimal for all combinations of matrix sizes. As a consequence, any code generated (at compile-time) to evaluate the at run-time) must consist of more than just a single sequence of function calls.

4. Fully Funded PhD Position in Energy Technology with a focus on Thermal Process Chemistry
Summary of PhD Program:
To enable the use of more circular, but also more challenging raw materials in the production of cement clinker, more knowledge is needed about their impact on the product and the production process. This project aims to generate new knowledge about the effects of elements found in low concentrations in possible raw materials. Specifically, the project will focus on the elements Cd, Cr, Cu, Mn, Pb, Ti, and V, whose content is expected to increase in future raw materials derived from industrial by-products. These elements are not necessary for clinker formation but cannot be removed before clinker production, and there is a knowledge gap regarding their impact on cement and cement clinker properties.

5. Fully Funded PhD Position in Odontology
Summary of PhD Program:
Umeå University is one of Sweden’s largest higher education institutions with over 37,000 students and about 4,700 employees. The University offers a diversity of high-quality education and world-leading research in several fields. Notably, the groundbreaking discovery of the CRISPR-Cas9 gene-editing tool, which was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, was made here. At Umeå University, everything is close. Our cohesive campuses make it easy to meet, work together and exchange knowledge, which promotes a dynamic and open culture.
