1. Fully Funded PhD Position in Computing Science

Summary of PhD Program:

We are seeking a PhD student to join the Autonomous Distributed Systems (ADS) Lab at Umeå University (Sweden) to work on research into energy-aware Cloud computing. Cloud computing infrastructures are increasingly distributed, consisting of powerful centralized data centres connected with multiple geographically dispersed Edge nodes. They host Cloud applications, which are typically composed of multiple containerized services that can themselves be distributed and auto-scaled across the Cloud-Edge infrastructure fabric.

3. Fully Funded PhD Position in Computing Science

Summary of PhD Program:

The aim of this position is to develop an agent-based social simulation based on a solid theoretical foundation of social concepts to study institutional developments from a psychological perspective. The theoretical foundations will be based on existing work from our group, but will link to social psychological theories and social theories. We will link social simulations with large-scale on-line social psychological experiments and social media analysis.

4. Fully Funded PhD Position in structural biology

Summary of PhD Program:

In your PhD studies, you will produce and characterize polymerase complexes of viruses from the family Pneumoviridae. Using a multi-modal structural biology and biophysics approach you will analyze structure and dynamics of these complexes. You will employ a panel of single-domain camelid nanobodies to stall polymerase conformations, use a high-throughput approach to determine multiple structures bound to nanobodies, and relate these back to functional states. You will use activity assays to identify sites of vulnerability targeted by the nanobodies. The results of the project will provide a significant advance in our understanding of the pneumovirus replication machinery.

6. Fully Funded PhD Position in Software Security

Summary of PhD Program:

The project is funded by WASP. Wallenberg AI, Autonomous Systems and Software Program (WASP) is Sweden’s largest individual research program ever, a major national initiative for strategically motivated basic research, education and faculty recruitment. The program addresses research on artificial intelligence and autonomous systems acting in collaboration with humans, adapting to their environment through sensors, information and knowledge, and forming intelligent systems-of-systems. The vision of WASP is excellent research and competence in artificial intelligence, autonomous systems and software for the benefit of Swedish industry.

7. Fully Funded PhD Position in medical sciences

Summary of PhD Program:

Our group studies evolutionary conserved signalling networks that can act as cancer drivers and aim to find tractable pharmacological targets and novel lead molecules within that niche. We focus on tumours harbouring activating mutations in the MAPK/ERK signalling pathway. To this end we have developed a powerful in vivo screening platform using the small nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. This allows us to screen for novel tumour suppressing drugs and genes. Positive findings will be genetically characterized in C. elegans and validated functionally in human cancer models. Novel drug candidates will be further developed in collaboration with CBCS in Umeå. The project is supervised by associate professor Oskar Hemmingsson and senior science engineer Ola Billing.
