1. Fully Funded PhD Position in sustainability breakthrough and its management
Summary of PhD Program:
The thesis researcher’s task is part of the interdisciplinary RELIEF research project funded by the Strategic Research Council (STN), which examines the role of societal turning points and legal systems in promoting the sustainability transition. The project investigates methods of action that can be used to promote a breakthrough in sustainability, especially from the perspectives of curbing climate change, combating nature loss, and achieving a good ecological state of the environment.
Application Deadline: 15.12.2023
2. Fully Funded PhD Position in Human-computer interaction / Human-AI interaction
Summary of PhD Program:
We are searching for a full-time Doctoral Researcher working on engineering psychology in computing systems. The research will focus on user studies and interactive systems. This position will be funded based on an initial 2-year contract + 2 years extension. The key idea is to apply theories, models, and methods from psychology to research in human-computer interaction.
Application Deadline: 24.11.2023

3. Fully Funded PhD Position in characterization, aging and modelling polymeric fire-stop materials
Summary of PhD Program:
Fire-stops are used in many industrial and residential buildings to ensure fire compartmentation within fire-resistant walls and floors with cable or pipe penetrations. Fire-stop materials range from cementitious, cast-in-place materials to functional polymers and modular systems that react and deform when heated. In the context of nuclear power plant fire safety, the aging of fire-stop materials is a concern when the working life of the operating plants is extended with tens of years. Numerical modelling capabilities are needed, when assessing the performance of fire-stops in non-tested applications.
Application Deadline: 10.11.2023
4. Fully Funded PhD Position in multimodal neuroimaging speech cortical mapping
Summary of PhD Program:
We are looking for an early-career level but expert scientist to assume a leading role in the fMRI-guided TMS speech cortical mapping (SCM) part of a wider project on language network (LANNET) at the Neuroscience and Biomedical Engineering department and Helsinki University Hospital (HUH). In this position you will have a chance to make an impact in a field that is in the cutting edge of clinical technology.
Application Deadline: 5.11.2023
5. Fully Funded PhD Position in Wood Extractives
Summary of PhD Program:
Synthetic UV filters are a health concern for humans and the environment, also affecting aquatic organisms as major sunscreen products wash into sea. Longer sunny periods along the climate change and increased UV radiation due to a thinner ozone layer, we urgently need new naturally derived UV absorbers. Wood-origin stilbenes have significant UV-absorbing capacity, but there is not enough scientific data to ensure their stability under UV radiation, so it requires a systematic study to suppress the undesired isomerization by building ultra‑stable, unsaturated cyclophanes and a cyclodextrin/stilbene complex.
