07 Postdoctoral Fellowship at NTNU, Norway

We offer a 3-year fulltime postdoctoral research fellow position specializing in stable isotope analysis applied to archaeological osteological remains of humans and other key taxa, focusing on the introduction and early development of agriculture in Norway. The purpose of a postdoctoral position is to build up a researcher profile that qualifies for a position as associate professor. The position may also offer additional skills that are relevant to the postdoctoral fellow`s future career. The fellowship will begin at the latest by 01.09.2025.

The successful candidate will take part in the project Social Complexity and Population Entanglements in Norway 2500-1000 BCE: Understanding new biomolecular datasets through a humanist lens (SCAPES) funded by the Norwegian Research Council (project no 354692). SCAPES is a transdisciplinary and collaborative project involving partners from three Norwegian universities: The NTNU University Museum, The University of Oslo/ Museum of Cultural History and Department of Archaeology, Conservation and History; the University of Stavanger/Museum of Archaeology. In addition The institute for Energy Technology, and The Max Planck Institute of Geoanthropology. 

Postdoktorstillingen er en kvalifiseringsstilling der hovedmålet er å kvalifisere for arbeid i vitenskapelige toppstillinger. Ved fagseksjons for pedagogikk tilbyr vi en 3-årig postdoktorstilling. 
Stillingen er tilknyttet forskningsgruppen TULL (Trivsel, utforskning, lek og læring). Forskningsgruppen arbeider med å undersøke pedagogiske praksiser og barns institusjonelle liv gjennom kvalitative, estetiske og idehistoriske analyser/studier. Sentrale problemstillinger i forskningen er knyttet til to spor: Det ene sporet utforsker barns lek i bred forstand og det andre sporet utforsker betydningen av estetiske uttrykksformer i pedagogiske sammenhenger. TULL bidrar gjennom sin forskning med ny empirisk kunnskap, teoriutvikling og metodologiske refleksjoner.

Gruppens forskning er sammensatt og vidtfavnende. Forskningsmiljøet er ledende på forskning om barns lek og vilkår for denne. Gruppen består av to professorer, en dosent, fem førsteamanuenser, fire stipendiater og en Statped-ansatt som innehar en bredt sammensatt kompetansebakgrunn både når det gjelder metodiske tilnærminger, analysestrategier og teoretisk orientering. 

Hardware components are crucial for ensuring computing systems’ security, integrity, and reliability, especially in industrial control systems (ICS), as they play a pivotal role in our daily lives and critical infrastructures, transmitting vital information for decision-making processes. To enhance security at the hardware level, it’s essential to understand device vulnerabilities and potential attack vectors. Hardware reverse engineering (HRE) is a method used to gain insights into the inner workings of man-made devices. However, there’s a noticeable gap in educational resources related to hardware security and HRE, including courses, labs, and best practices.

The reverse engineering lab at NTNU Gjovik is being established under NORCICS to address future hardware security challenges by developing innovative methods, tools, and techniques in collaboration with industries, government, and international research institutions. The lab has essential testing equipment for testing hardware security vulnerabilities on embedded systems. In partnership with national/international experts, the HRE lab will be a central hub for various activities. It will establish a physical reversing lab for research, testing, and training, develop a Hardware Security Reverse course for academic and industry use, organise workshop/seminar series on specific topics for partners, and host the annual NTNU Reverse Engineering Forum, providing a vital meeting point for the community.

We have a researcher (Postdoctoral level) positions position funded through the ERC starter grant “EnvIronchannel” at the Animal Physiology Section in the Department of Biology (https://www.ntnu.edu/biology/research/animal-physiology) in the Group of Lena van Giesen (Home | Labpagehttps://levangiesen.wixsite.com/labpage). 

The position is a temporary position where the main goal is to qualify for work in senior academic positions. 

We are looking for a postdoctoral researcher marine invertebrate sensory biology with a focus on the coldwater coral species Lophelia pertusa. The project is funded through the EU through an ERC starter grant. The position is for two years with a potential for extension, and you will report to Lena van Giesen (Associate Professor). 

This project will investigate how coral larvae recognize suitable habitats and decide about a permanent settlement side. We aim to study the underlying sensory system, how these are integrating and encoding external environmental signals and how this leads to behavioral output in the animal. The project will use a range of techniques centered around cellular physiology, behavior and molecular biology to address these questions. We also closely collaborate with other researchers to bring these aspects into an environmental context.

The post doctor position is part of a research-based innovation centre on Industrial Biotechnology which is made up of universities, research organizations, and industry. This post doctor project focuses on gas fermentation where gases with low solubility challenge economical and viable large-scale operation of the multiphase bioreactor. To realize new viable industrial-scale fermentation processes, the multiphase bioreactor must be designed and operated such that the mass transfer between bubbles and liquid is optimized. This project aims to use experimental and/or computational techniques to understand fundamental multiphase phenomena taking place in gas fermentation processes.
