Wageningen University & Research, Netherlands invites online application for multiple funded PhD Programs \/ fully funded PhD positions in various research areas.<\/span><\/p>\n Candidates interested in fully funded PhD positions can check the details and may apply as soon as possible. Interested and eligible applicants may submit their online application for PhD programs via the University\u2019s Online Application Portal.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The Digi4Live project is at the nexus of digital data-driven innovation and livestock farming, aimed at amplifying the capacity of livestock sector actors across Europe to harness the power of data and digital technologies. By forging collaborative partnerships between livestock sector actors, technology suppliers, competent authorities, research and development initiatives, and various other key players, Digi4Live sets the stage for co-creating digital and data-driven concepts that can revolutionize the way data is used in livestock tracking and tracing.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n As part of the NWO-KIC WaterScape project you will work in a larger team with PhDs that are based at different universities within the Netherlands. We will also interact with stakeholders and our other partners that will use your results for their future policy making, with the goal to create a more climate robust water system in the Netherlands. As PhD candidate you will be responsible for designing pathways to governance systems that enable coordination and adaptation of policy investments in the water system to establish waterscapes in the Dutch Delta. You will analyse previously made decisions, the use of hydrological models in decision making, the frames about problems and solutions, and develop pathways towards future waterscapes.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Follow FellowshipBard for daily updates! <\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Facebook<\/span><\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n Twitter<\/span><\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n Linkedin<\/span><\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n The Delta Climate Center in Vlissingen is a new and innovative knowledge center in the field of climate adaptation. It unites science and practice through a unique partnership between knowledge institutions. Within the relevant work package, two aims are formulated to better understand the adaptation of low trophic aquaculture to a changing climate: 1) to model how water and nutrient runoff from land affects the potential for marine protein production in the Dutch Delta ecosystem and assess effects of future changes. 2) an experimental study to assist in model parameterization and to gain a better understanding of the ecophysiology of bivalves and their adaptation to increased variation in food supply and food quality across varying environmental gradients. The focus of the PhD study will be on the second aim, but will also contribute (e.g., through parameterization) to the first aim.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Nature-based approaches, such as soil passage during river bank filtration and dune filtration, is commonly used as a first treatment step in drinking water production from surface water. Soil passage results in the partial removal of organic micropollutants (OMP) via biodegradation and sorption. As a PhD candidate in the Sino-Dutch project \u201cWater SMART\u201d, you will contribute to further developing nature-based approaches to enhance the removal of OMPs during soil passage. By stimulating microbial activity in the soil and by testing sorbent material amendment, you will explore the interplay between OMP sorption and biodegradation. The main objectives is to balance these two processes to optimize OMP retention and removal during soil passage. By collaborating with partners at TU Delft, the Chinese Research Center for Eco-Environmental Sciences and the Institute of Urban Environment in the Chinese Academy of Sciences, you will contribute to the development of novel strategies towards safe and sustainable drinking water production.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n We are looking for an enthusiastic PhD candidate to work in our project \u201cBIOSENSEI: Biosensor-Based Diagnostic Platform Enabling Real-Time Monitoring of Existing and Emerging Pollutants\u201d. The main aim of this project is to develop a real-time, multiplexed, end-to-end, tailored and reliable biosensor platform, using cellular responses, for the detection of abiotic pollutants (nutrients, estrogenic endocrine-disrupting chemicals, and PFAS (perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances)); and biotic pollutants (microcystins). As part of this EU-funded project, this PhD programme encompasses the generation of whole-cell microbial biosensors employing bioengineering and genetic circuitry, as well as its integration in the project\u2019s framework.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n This project aims to address the limited understanding in the impacts of future social-economic changes and climate extremes on sewage flows and treatment in cities\/towns. This project also aims to assess the interactions between WWM for agriculture (including crops and livestock) and domestic WWM in rural and urban (upstream-downstream) environments, which are vital to understanding the overall effectiveness of WWM. You should have an interest in integrated modeling that combines models from disciplines (water quality and GIS) and in working with large datasets and numerical models.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n The European Bioeconomic University\u2019s (EBU) joint doctoral network DESTINY is a Horizon Europe Marie Sk\u0142odowska-Curie Action and offers a total number of 15 fully funded PhD positions in an inter- and transdisciplinary research and education programme across Europe. DESTINY will address the transition from a fossil-based towards a biobased economy by developing novel methods and tools to optimise biomass production systems, develop novel biobased value chains and assess their sustainability holistically. We cover a number of disciplines and sectors from agronomy and engineering to economics, political and social sciences, to create a novel type of scientist: the bioeconomist.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n The European Bioeconomic University\u2019s (EBU) joint doctoral network DESTINY is a Horizon Europe Marie Sk\u0142odowska-Curie Action and offers a total number of 15 fully funded PhD positions in an inter- and transdisciplinary research and education programme across Europe.

You will adopt an interdisciplinary approach that integrates genus-wide comparative genomics and functional studies to pinpoint immune receptors that can be used to secure robust black rot resistance in Brassica crops.This approach holds also potential in uncovering the evolutionary dynamics of plant immune systems and providing valuable insights for establishing durable disease resistance.<\/span><\/p>\n Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n You will use state-of-the-art methodologies including arteriovenous forearm balance, stable isotope tracers, and continuous glucose monitoring under fasting, postprandial, and hyperinsulinaemic-euglycemic clamp conditions to measure muscle amino acid and glucose kinetics in conditions of impaired physical inactivity. This project is funded by the Dutch Diabetes Foundation (i.e. Diabetes Fonds), and will involve engagement of and dissemination to patient groups for optimal utilization of the research findings. Apply now<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n A fully funded PhD position (four years when full-time employed) is available in our group for a theoretical biologist to work as part of an interdisciplinary project studying how spatial environmental structure affects the evolution of antibiotic resistance (full project proposal available upon request). You will develop spatially explicit models of bacterial growth, competition, and evolution under antibiotic pressure. Throughout the project, you will collaborate closely with a postdoc who will perform competition and evolution experiments in the lab. You will integrate experimental results in your models and produce model predictions that can be tested in the lab.<\/span><\/p>\n1.
