1. Fully Funded PhD Position in normal and malignant hematopoiesis
Summary of PhD Program:
Dahlin’s team focuses on charting basophil and mast cell differentiation at single-cell level in health and hematologic diseases, including systemic mastocytosis and myeloproliferative neoplasms. This is performed using the state-of-the-art single-cell omics technologies complemented with functional experiments. The current team consists of the principal investigator, three doctoral students, and one postdoc, which together cover the areas of experimental research, bioinformatics, and applied mathematics. The group is part of the Division of Immunology and Allergy.
Application Deadline: 15.Feb.2024
2. Fully Funded PhD Position in Health Economics and Biostatistics
Summary of PhD Program:
The overarching aims of this project are: (a) to investigate how to reduce the healthcare utilisation and societal burden due to prostate cancer through clinically effective and cost-effective risk-adapted organised testing and; (b) to provide reliable evidence to Swedish clinicians and policy makers to develop and evaluate the current OPT projects using simulations and health economic evaluations.
Application Deadline: 14.Feb.2024

3. Fully Funded PhD Position in spatial omics in multiple sclerosis
Summary of PhD Program:
Our research group has performed single-cell/spatial omics studies, identifying for instance several cell states within the oligodendrocyte lineage in development and disease (Science 2016, Dev Cell 2018, Nature Medicine 2018, Nature 2019, Nature Biotechnology 2021, 2022, Neuron 2022, Nature 2023, among others). Our recent findings suggest that oligodendrocyte lineage cells might present other functional properties than previously thought, transitioning for instance to disease-associated states. The PhD student project will focus on the application and computational analysis of spatial transcriptomic and epigenomic technologies.
Application Deadline: 12.Feb.2024
4. Fully Funded PhD Position in Optometry
Summary of PhD Program:
The doctoral project aims to improve cornea diagnostics and keratoconus care, and in the project the doctoral student will collaborate with the cornea clinic at St. Erik’s Eye Hospital. In your role as a doctoral student, you will, among other things, manage databases, perform measurements with various ophthalmological imaging instruments in patients with different types of corneal ectasia in different stages, and assess their visual function at different times. Finally, you will design and manage image analysis algorithms. The doctoral student will also have a leading role in the projects and run them together with supervisors. The projects are interdisciplinary and the supervisor team consists of professionals with different skills.
Application Deadline: 2024-02-11
5. Fully Funded PhD Position in precision immune oncology in lung cancer
Summary of PhD Program:
The doctoral student will focus on projects to characterize mechanisms of immune regulation in patients with non-small cell lung cancer undergoing immune checkpoint therapy. The project entails studying the immune system, with a particular focus on natural killer cells and myeloid cells, and microvesicles using cellular and molecular laboratory assays. Throughout the education, the student will complete the learning outcomes by attending courses, international conferences, seminar series, and disseminating research findings in peer-reviewed medical journals.
Application Deadline: 07.Feb.2024
6. Fully Funded PhD Position in oral-systemic health research
Summary of PhD Program:
The group is led by Professor Nagihan Bostanci and her research team is located at Ana Futura, Karolinska Institutet in Campus Fleminsberg and actively collaborates with many excellent research groups within and outside Karolinska Institutet. Our research group atmosphere is creative, inspiring, friendly, encouraging and positive, and we have broad experience in both experimental and translational studies. The Department of Dental Medicine is great environment where research education is conducted at undergraduate and postgraduate level. ANA Futura is a leading translational integrated research environment with more than 10,000 m2 laboratory and office space and equipped for cutting-edge research facilities.
Application Deadline: 05.Feb.2024
7. Fully Funded PhD Position in Reproductive Endocrinology and Metabolism
Summary of PhD Program:
The project will investigate human adipose tissue and endometrial cell-type specific disease signatures by single-cell gene expression and possible tissue cross-talk. The PhD project will utilize our human tissue in vitro culture systems to investigate molecular function, tissue-cross talk underlying cell-type-specific disease markers and how they respond to known and novel treatment. Eventually we will also utilize our in vivo mice modelss.
