3. Fully Funded PhD Position in plant ecophysiology
Summary of PhD Program:
The PhD project is in the field of plant ecophysiology. Its main aim is to quantify the among-species variation in stem respiration in a variety of temperate and boreal tree species. The key research goals include: Determining the magnitude and the underlying causes for the among-species variation in stem respiration in trees exposed to the same growing conditions, and Improving the understanding of climate change impacts on stem respiration on longer-time scales.
The project will include field measurements in the arboretum of the Gothenburg Botanical Garden and laboratory-based measurements in the state-of-the-art phytotron facilities at the host department, which will be used to determine the effects of changing growing conditions, such as temperature and water availability, on stem respiration rates.
Application Deadline: 2025-08-31
4. 02 Fully Funded PhD Position in Comparative Literature
Summary of PhD Program:
The goal of doctoral education is for the doctoral student to develop the knowledge and skills to be able to conduct original and independent research in comparative literature, and to contribute to the development of knowledge within the discipline through the production of a scholarly thesis. The doctoral student is expected to communicate scientific findings in both oral and written form. Another aim is to develop the ability to apply the acquired knowledge and skills within post-degree research or other qualified professional work.

5. Fully Funded PhD Position in Stem cell-based models of childhood leukemia
Summary of PhD Program:
Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) represent a promising tool to model embryonic development. Genetic reprogramming of adult cell types (e.g. skin fibroblasts) allows the production of patient-specific induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells to dissect the role of both congenital and somatic mutations on developmental disorders and malignancies. Half of all childhood cancers have a suspected prenatal origin, limiting access to the cancer-initiating developmental progenitor. Human PSCs-based in vitro models of embryonic hematopoiesis represent a promising tool to dissect the molecular mechanisms of malignant transformation taking place in prenatal cell populations.
