Eligible candidate may Apply as soon as possible.
(01) PhD Degree – Fully Funded
PhD position summary/title: PhD on decision-making chain in the hydrogen economy (1.0 FTE) (V23.0173)
We are seeking a PhD candidate that researches the synergies and mismatches between how law shapes the development of decision-making, from policy to plans to permits (so-called decision-making chain) and how people want to interact with such decision-making processes. Policy makers in the European Union are pressing for developing an hydrogen economy. However, climate change mitigation policies can still encounter societal opposition. Citizens might however oppose such a development, especially if they feel excluded from decision-making and overruled by vested interests. If organised well, participatory practices can potentially positively influence acceptability and perceived fairness of the hydrogen economy.
Deadline : 25 April 2023

PhD position summary/title: PhD Stress in Action. Modelling and predicting the effect of stress (V23.0167)
The experience of stress is an inherent aspect of daily life. However, can we validly measure this, and how and under what circumstances does it contribute to disease? We at the department of Psychometrics and Statistics at the University of Groningen are looking for a PhD student to work with us on the ambitious Stress in Action project (more details about the project can be found here: https://stress-in-action.nl/).

PhD position summary/title: PhD position in Systems biology (1.0 FTE) (V23.0164)
Eukaryotic cell growth is tightly regulated by a set of conserved signaling pathways that monitor the extracellular and intracellular environment. In dividing cells, the activity of these pathways needs to be coordinated with the cell division cycle to maintain cellular homeostasis, and disruption of this coordination can lead to a wide range of pathologies. However, we still do not fully understand how these signaling pathways regulate cell cycle progression, even though it has long been known that they exert strong cell cycle control. The project will address this complex question in the model eukaryote Saccharomyces cerevisiae (budding yeast) by combining dynamic perturbations of protein abundances in growth-regulatory pathways (TORC1, TORC2, PKA and AMPK) with single-cell time lapse microscopy of cell cycle progression and statistical modeling. Pathway components with the strongest effects on the cell cycle will be singled out for subsequent experiments to uncover cell cycle regulators affected by these components. This work aims to elucidate a largely unexplored aspect of growth signaling, and thus contribute to our understanding of fundamental cellular processes which are ultimately linked with human health.

PhD position summary/title: Two PhD’s project: New Organizational Forms and Block chain Governance (V23.0158)
We are seeking two candidates for a PhD project cluster on New Organizational Forms and Block chain Governance. Both projects are embedded in a collaboration between analytical sociologists, social and political philosophers, political economists and science and technology scholars to investigate to what degree and under which conditions Block chain Governance succeeds or fails in sustaining cooperation within and between (new) organizational arrangements.

PhD position summary/title: PhD positions on legal aspects of the hydrogen economy (2.0 FTE) (V23.0066)
THERESA is a project that integrates a consortium of universities made up of the Universitat Rovira i Virgili in Spain (coordinator), the University of Groningen in the Netherlands and the Eastern University of Finland. The three universities stand out for having Research Centres in the field of energy, environmental and sustainability law with a proven track record in these areas. Thanks to the long-standing collaboration between the three universities, THERESA DN proposes the first European doctoral programme for legal specialists in the field of the hydrogen economy. In the context of climate emergency and the socio-ecological transition of the Anthropocene, Green hydrogen is a promising energy carrier to facilitate the transition to an energy system based on renewable energies. Hydrogen can replace natural gas as a feedstock and help fossil-based economic sectors for which electrification is not possible, or excessively burdensome, to lower their greenhouse gas emissions. Yet, the development of a hydrogen market is characterized by uncertainties and associated economic, societal and environmental risks. The few existing scholarly legal studies on this subject matter highlight the fragmentation of the regulatory framework applying to hydrogen. THERESA combines the focus on three specific themes of regulatory intervention in the hydrogen economy – 1) reducing sectoral fragmentation to spur socio-environmental sustainability; 2) enabling sustainable circular use of hydrogen; and 3) societal engagement in the hydrogen economy – with three methodological approaches – doctrinal constructivism, empirical legal research and legal comparativism – to advance legal knowledge and form the doctoral experts needed to contribute to the development of a hydrogen economy. THERESA encompasses a fully-fledged training programme offering substantive, theoretical, methodological, and transferable skills to Doctoral Candidates.

PhD position summary/title: PhD Active and passive states in human working memory (1.0 FTE) (V23.0143)
This PhD project focuses on how the brain maintains information in working memory. This short-term store of information is vital to adaptive, intelligent behaviour. For long it was assumed that working memory is implemented by persistent neural activity; by neurons that keep firing in order to keep the maintained information active. However, more recent work has demonstrated that information can also be maintained in an activity-silent way involving short-term synaptic plasticity. Yet, the functional role of these silent mechanisms is unknown. In this project, using a novel impulse-perturbation technique that is able to illuminate activity-silent states using EEG, you will investigate 1) whether there are functional differences to information that is maintained using persistent-activity or in an activity-silent way, and 2) what the advantages are of having two different ways to code memories. These studies will provide a more detailed account of how working memory supports intelligent behaviour in- and outside the laboratory.
