1. Fully Funded PhD Position in field of lignocellulose chemistry
Summary of PhD Program:
The candidate will be working in a project that is centered around chemical cleavage of bonds in forest biomass. The aim is to reveal reaction mechanisms and their efficiency in order to aid selection of chemical means to release material streams from forest biomass and to establish pretreatment strategies for resource and energy-efficiently release the resources for materials engineering. The aim for the doctoral candidate is to become an expert in lignocellulosic chemistry.
Application Deadline: 4.6.2023
2. Fully Funded PhD Position in Optimisation
Summary of PhD Program:
We are now seeking a Doctoral Researcher in Optimisation to work in Dr. Schiewe’s research group. The group’s research is focused on developing models and methods for optimization problems related to sustainable mobility and urban planning. Especially integrated approaches to sequential problems are developed and analysed as they allow for a larger solution space. To solve the resulting complex problems, exact approaches for special problem classes are developed and used to build specialized heuristics. Additionally, the value and costs of game theoretic approaches compared to socially optimal optimization approaches are considered.

6. Fully Funded PhD Position in DNA nanotechnology, molecular self-assembly
Summary of PhD Program:
You will work on design, fabrication, and characterization of electrically driven nanoscale molecular machines. As a member of the group, you will be trained in advanced methods in DNA nanotechnology (especially DNA origami), and state-of-the-art electron beam and optical microscopy and nanoscopy techniques. Depending on the background and scientific interests, your research will be directed either towards i) fabrication of active plasmonic surfaces and biosensors; or ii) construction of artificial molecular motors. We expect you to propose and develop scientific ideas and technical solutions (both individually and as part of a team), write scientific articles and contribute to teaching.
