1. Fully Funded PhD Position in Metamorphic petrology
Summary of PhD Program:
This PhD project aims to reconstruct the behavior of the fluids in the crust during the formation of a mountain belt. To achieve this, the project will integrate quantitative analyses of metamorphic rocks—including metapelites, calcsilicates and marbles—with petrological and geochemical constraints. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to conduct fieldwork in the Scandinavian Caledonides and work with rock samples from a drill core (COSC-1) from Jämtland (Sweden) recovered by the International Continental Drilling program in 2014.
Application Deadline: 08.Sep.2025
2. Fully Funded PhD Position in Criminology
Summary of PhD Program:
The Department of Criminology at Stockholm University announces two to three PhD student positions. The thesis work will be conducted within the framework of criminology. We offer all our doctoral students a workplace at the department and require attendance and active participation in our research environment.
Application Deadline: 01.Sep.2025

3. Fully Funded PhD Position in Environmental Science: non-target PFAS screening by GC-HRMS
Summary of PhD Program:
The thesis work will be carried out as part of the FORMAS-funded project “Identification and Characterization of ‘Lipophilic’ Fluorinated Organics in the Blubber of Marine Mammals (IDing-LFOs)”. This project challenges the prevailing assumption that PFAS bioaccumulation is primarily driven by protein binding. Building on our initial discovery of novel PFAS in marine mammal blubber, we will apply advanced gas chromatography–atmospheric pressure chemical ionization–ion mobility mass spectrometry (GC-APCI-IMS) to further identify and characterize compounds within this class.
Application Deadline: 04.Aug.2025
4. Fully Funded PhD Position in Molecular Biosciences
Summary of PhD Program:
This PhD student position is available in the laboratory headed by Associate Professor Qiaolin Deng. The project aims to addresses the molecular mechanisms underlying the intergenerational effects of maternal endocrine diseases in cardiomeatabolic health in offspring. We focus on the human placental development in disease, and their developmental programming effects mediated by tissue-tissue communication.

5. Fully Funded PhD Position in Aging and Molecular Biosciences
Summary of PhD Program:
This PhD student position is available in the laboratory headed by Associate Professor Christian Riedel. The project is supported by funding from the Swedish Research Council (Vetenskapsrådet) and explores the molecular mechanisms by which aging is regulated. Specifically, you will follow exciting new mechanistic leads on how reduced insulin/IGF-like signaling and its downstream transcription factor DAF-16/FOXO slow aging.
Application Deadline: 11.Jul.2025
6. Fully Funded PhD Position in Molecular Biosciences
Summary of PhD Program:
We are actively seeking a highly motivated candidate with a passion for developing experimental methods to join our team. In this role, you will be involved in a groundbreaking project aimed at studying protein interactions in cells and tissues, making use of the expertise of the Piazza lab. With proof-of-concept already established, you will work to refine and optimize the method to achieve broad applicability and high reproducibility. You will have the opportunity to apply this novel approach to explore pressing biomedical questions and leveraging this knowledge to advance treatments for human tumors and immunotherapies.
Application Deadline: 11.Jul.2025
7. Fully Funded PhD Position in Molecular Biosciences
Summary of PhD Program:
This doctoral student position is available in the laboratory headed by Associate Professor Qi Dai. The Dai lab exploits the combination of molecular, genetic and genomic approaches to gain mechanistic insights into how cell fates are specified. This particular project aims to uncover novel mechanisms in genome organization and investigate how genome organization contributes to animal development. The experimental approaches involve genetic methods in combination with advanced genomic profiling techniques.

8. Fully Funded PhD Position in Molecular Biosciences
Summary of PhD Program:
This PhD student position is available in the laboratory headed by Professor Mattias Mannervik. The project addresses epigenetic and molecular mechanisms of tissue-specific gene expression during Drosophila development. Single cell epigenetic and RNA-seq methods are combined with bulk genome-wide methods such as CUT&Tag, ATAC-seq and PRO-seq to study the links between transcription and epigenetic states. Epigenetic patterns of histone modifications contribute to the maintenance of cell- and tissue-specific gene expression.
