PhD position summary/title: PhD Research Fellow in chemical valorisation of biomass
Chemical knowledge, technology and competence are essential factors in unlocking the potential and meeting the objectives of biorefining in a future bio-based circular economy. This PhD-project addresses targeted biorefining approaches, emphasising thermochemical conversion of biomass wastes (e.g. food/fruit wastes and macro algae), into high-value compounds such as furans, phenols, platform chemicals, bioenergy and biofuels. Analytical and statistical tools are essential in understanding and examining occurring conversion challenges, workup protocols and product purification. Assessing sustainability perspectives by applying a life cycle thinking approach will also play a central role in the project structure.
The work will be carried out in the research group of associate professor Camilla Løhre, in the thematic research group “Sustainable Energy Carriers, Chemicals and Materials” at Department of Chemistry.
Deadline : 1st March 2024

PhD position summary/title: PhD fellowship in Media Production and Digital Storytelling
The PhD project should strengthen the department’s research on digital narratives. Applicants must propose a PhD project that is rooted in moving image production, and uses this to investigate emergent digital narrative forms or technologies, such as virtual reality, augmented reality, AI-based video production, virtual cinematography, game-based storytelling, interactive art, etc. The project will also ideally engage with current practices in, and be able to generate new knowledge about, the interstices between linear narrative forms (notably filmmaking) and interactivity. Its focus may fall within (or move across) fiction, documentary, hybrid fiction/non-fiction, or experimental approaches to digital storytelling. The project should include the design and development of prototypes or artistic works that incorporate and explore digital narrative and that form an integral part of the overall research project.

PhD position summary/title: PhD Research Fellow in computational mathematics for geoscience – CSSR
As stated on the CSSR website, the “Centre for Sustainable Subsurface Resources is a national research centre dedicated to providing new subsurface knowledge and digital solutions to drastically reduce Norway’s offshore emissions. At CSSR, we work towards understanding how operators best can implement clean energy sources based on each asset’s unique underground situation. We also explore new ways of using the subsurface to store clean energy. CSSR will help leverage the knowledge and investments connected to old hydrocarbon reservoirs to repurpose these fields for large-scale carbon storage. CSSR researchers are also doing experimental studies on the temporary storage of clean hydrogen in underground reservoirs.”
To support the ambitions of the CSSR, this project aims to develop new algorithms for integrating models of various complexity, ranging from high-performance reservoir simulation, via reduced-order models to data-driven representations of the system. In particular, we are interested in the joint applicability of such models and to what extent simpler models (possibly based on machine learning) can be integrated into full-physics simulation.
Deadline : 13th February 2024
(10) PhD Degree – Fully Funded
PhD position summary/title: PhD position in medical physics
The NOVO project will address a fundamental issue in proton therapy of cancer, namely the lack of real-time dose verification (RDV) that significantly limits the potential of proton therapy due to uncertainties in the precise delivery of the prescribed dose. In the NOVO project, we will develop the first proof-of-concept of a scintillator-based RDV technology adaptable to any proton therapy treatment. The PhD position will be part of a strong research community within proton therapy in Bergen with tight collaboration with international partners. The tasks for the PhD position will include in silico predictions of the NOVO detector’s signal in clinical settings by means of particle transport simulations, and further analysis of this signal for the purpose of range and dose reconstructing and further developing a trigger system to detect deviations in range/dose during treatment based on the NOVO signal. Furthermore, explorations into applications of prompt gamma spectroscopy with the NOVO detector will be a part of the PhD project.

PhD position summary/title: PhD Research Fellow in Functional characterisation of ctenophore neurons
The Burkhardt group combines comparative biological systems in the laboratory to understand when and how first synapses, neurons and nervous systems evolved. The group is particularly interested in studying the nervous system of ctenophores. Ctenophores are strong candidates for being the sister-group to all other animals. Given their phylogenetic position characterizing the nervous system of ctenophores promises to reveal fundament insights into the evolutionary origin of neurons. We are looking for a highly self-motivated and enthusiastic PhD student with interests in evolutionary biology, neurobiology and cell biology. The project will focus on the functional characterisation of ctenophore neurons. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to undertake research using morpholino knockdowns and Crispr/Cas9 knockouts, calcium imaging, laser ablations and electrophysiology to understand whether ctenophores nerve net neurons are excitable and how they communicate with each other. The successful candidate will work in close association with the group leader and other lab members with the aim to contribute to the further development of the project in line with her/his interests.
