4. Fully Funded PhD Position in Computer and Systems Sciences, with focus on Algorithms for the Simulation of Quantum Systems
Summary of PhD Program:
Quantum computing is an emerging paradigm that uses principles such as superposition and entanglement to perform computation in a way that is fundamentally distinct from classical computation. The relevance of this paradigm stems from the fact that certain important computational problems, which are not known to be efficiently solvable on classical computers, can be solved efficiently on quantum computers.
It is conjectured that simulating general quantum systems on classical computers is a problem that requires exponential overhead. Nevertheless, given that quantum computing is still an emerging paradigm, classical simulation remains one of the main techniques for advancing our understanding of the limits and applications of quantum computational devices.

5. Fully Funded PhD Position in Computer and Systems Sciences, with focus on Distributed Systems
Summary of PhD Program:
Artificial Intelligence in Distributed Systems: Our society is heavily dependent on distributed systems and services in which a continuum of computing resources (from resource intensive clouds or HPCs to resource constrained IoT) play a central role in data generation, controlling communications, computation, real-time decision making and storage. Working with different capabilities and characteristics of resources poses several challenges including resource allocation, task scheduling, and system optimization, which often depends on static or predefined rules, causing inefficiencies and suboptimal performance. However, artificial intelligence can be incorporated into these systems in order for them to adapt to dynamically changing workloads, environmental conditions, and user requirements.

8. Fully Funded PhD Position in Journalism (2)
Summary of PhD Program:
Despite the dramatic changes in media systems in recent decades, journalism still constitutes the primary source of information for most citizens. Our research highlights how the societal roles and professional ideals of journalism have shifted over time and in different geographical contexts, often by emphasizing the dependencies of journalism on other societal institutions, both political and economic. Current journalism research at JMK is characterized by methodological diversity, incorporating both qualitative and quantitative approaches, often with a particular focus on the consequences of digitalization.

9. Fully Funded PhD Position in Public Health Sciences
Summary of PhD Program:
The doctoral project aims to understand disability-related health inequalities using Swedish register data. The doctoral project will take a broad approach to disability and health inequalities over the life-course and across generations. The doctoral project will involve the development of a general framework to study disability-related health inequalities. Based on this framework, quantitative studies will be conducted. These studies will use epidemiological design and statistical modelling and will be based on Swedish national social and health registers. The doctoral project will advance the theoretical and empirical understanding of disability-related health inequalities.

10. Fully Funded PhD Position in Fashion Studies
Summary of PhD Program:
Fashion Studies at Stockholm University is an interdisciplinary field that explores miscellaneous concepts and approaches to the study of fashion from both aesthetic and material perspectives. The aesthetic dimension focuses on the cultural meanings of clothing and style through visual and textual representations. The materiality of fashion is seen through the commercial development of textiles and accessories throughout history. Additionally, luxury studies constitute another research area in tandem with the growing international academic interest in the field. For the time being teaching and research in Fashion Studies include fashion and dress history, fashion and gender, fashion as an industry, fashion representations in media, consumer culture theory, fashion and sustainability and marketing and identity practices.

13. Fully Funded PhD Position in Environmental Science focusing on Mercury in Permafrost Soils
Summary of PhD Program:
Climate-driven release of Hg upon permafrost thaw has already been demonstrated. A robust understanding of the underlying soil Hg remobilization processes is, however, still missing. This program aims to unravel the climate vulnerability of Arctic Hg stocks by investigating the reduction and desorption processes of Hg along permafrost thaw gradients. We will do this by applying both field- and laboratory-based approaches. The field study will be conducted in Tavvavuoma (one of the most extensive permafrost peatland areas in Fennoscandia) along permafrost thaw transects where we already have demonstrated decreasing concentrations of Hg in the soil matrix upon permafrost thaw and peat inundation.

14. Fully Funded PhD Position in Environmental Science, Key-processes of Sea-spray Emissions and their Response to Climate Changes
Summary of PhD Program:
Besides gases, the atmosphere consists also of aerosol particles, from nanometer size to <100 micrometer, with a complex chemical composition. Aerosols influence the climate due to their own scattering of sun-light, and due to their influence on the reflectivity of clouds. Sea spray is the largest natural aerosol source, producing an aerosol composed of sea salt and organic compounds. The source magnitude and the chemical composition depends on several factors that are changing due to the ongoing climate changes. These include, but are not limited to, wind speed, surface water temperature, sea ice, salinity, marine microbiology, ocean chemistry and ocean waves. The project coordinator has been among the forerunners in this field, and one of the key researchers on the topic over the last few decades.

15. Fully Funded PhD Position in Environmental Science, Greenland glacier melt effect on fjords biogeochemistry
Summary of PhD Program:
Glaciers in the high Arctic form an impermeable cap that traps a large reservoir of subsurface methane (both biogenic and thermogenic). Greenland has been at the forefront of glacial retreat in the recent decades, at thus far unseen rates. The amount of methane that is liberated in association with glacier retreat is essentially unknown. East Greenland glaciers are, in particular, understudied in this regard due to limited accessibility of this remote region, but recent work offshore East Greenland highlighted methane emission hotspots in the water column, close to the fjords where ocean-terminating glaciers are present. In parallel, glaciers might also release large amounts of organic matter in the form of dissolved and particulate organic carbon. While meltwater could provide a source of labile carbon to bacterial communities in glacier fjords, bacterial communities might rely primarily on autochthonous carbon sources.
