(01) Postdoctoral Position
Postdoctoral position summary/title: Postdoctoral position in Biogeochemistry.
The focus of this project lies in understanding bacterial, archaeal and fungal weathering capacity of natural silicate minerals in large scale experiments. Increased weathering of silicates has been proven to increase the uptake of CO2 from the atmosphere and this project aims to search for the optimal conditions for high-rate silicate weathering and CO2 capturing by the setup of a multi-variable bioreactor. A large number of small-scale experiments will be connected to a machine learning system for continuous monitoring of weathering products and biological activities and the gathered information will be used for the development of a large-scale bioreactor. In this project, we will investigate the silicate weathering and biomineralization efficiency of pure and mixed cultures of prokaryotes (bacteria and fungi). Understanding siderophore and chelating compound excretion among prokaryotes will be of crucial importance in this project

Postdoctoral position summary/title: Postdoctoral position in condensed matter theory.
he postdoctoral researcher is expected to perform theoretical investigations as well as to do computationally-based modelling within the research area of theoretical condensed matter physics, with a special focus on modelling of ultrafast spin currents, theory for light-induced dynamical processes, THz emission, and theory for current-induced spin dynamics.

(07) Postdoctoral Position
Postdoctoral position summary/title: Up to 5 Post-docs in IT for a sustainable and secure society.
Deadline of Postdoc Position: 2021-05-28
(08) Postdoctoral Position
Postdoctoral position summary/title: Postdoc in automatic control and machine learning with specialization in IT for a sustainable and secure society.
Civil infrastructures provide e.g. electricity, gas and oil, water and wastewater, communication and transportation. Civil infrastructure systems comprise two interlacing networked structures, where the physical one supports material flow (water, heat, electricity, etc), and the digital one carries the information flow as well as enables the monitoring and control of the physical equipment and processes. Extreme weather and malicious actors threaten both. Digital networks are susceptible to cyber-attacks that corrupt the information flows and compromise the overall system performance. Extreme weather events such as flooding, landslides or fire can devastate the physical infrastructure.

About Uppsala University, Sweden –Official Website
Uppsala University is a research university in Uppsala, Sweden. Founded in 1477, it is the oldest university in Sweden and all of the Nordic countries still in operation. It has ranked among the world’s 100 best universities in several high-profile international rankings during recent years. The university uses “Gratiae veritas naturae” as its motto and embraces natural sciences.
The university rose to pronounced significance during the rise of Sweden as a great power at the end of the 16th century and was then given a relative financial stability with the large donation of King Gustavus Adolphus in the early 17th century. Uppsala also has an important historical place in Swedish national culture, identity and for the Swedish establishment: in historiography, literature, politics, and music. Many aspects of Swedish academic culture in general, such as the white student cap, originated in Uppsala. It shares some peculiarities, such as the student nation system, with Lund University and the University of Helsinki.
Uppsala belongs to the Coimbra Group of European universities and to the Guild of European Research-Intensive Universities. The university has nine faculties distributed over three “disciplinary domains”. It has about 44,000 registered students and 2,300 doctoral students. It has a teaching staff of roughly 1,800 (part-time and full-time) out of a total of 6,900 employees. Twenty-eight per cent of the 716 professors at the university are women. Of its turnover of SEK 6.6 billion (approx. USD 775 million) in 2016, 29% was spent on education at Bachelor’s and Master’s level, while 70% was spent on research and research programs.
Architecturally, Uppsala University has traditionally had a strong presence in Fjärdingen, the neighbourhood around the cathedral on the western side of the River Fyris. Despite some more contemporary building developments further away from the centre, Uppsala’s historic centre continues to be dominated by the presence of the university.
