PhD position summary/title: PhD scholarship in Periodic Entanglement of Protein Assembly States Shaping Neurodegenerative Fate – DTU Bioengineering
If you are establishing your career as a scientist and you are looking for a PhD opportunity with an ambitious and exciting project, it is right here in front of you. The research group of Asst. Prof. Soumik Ray at DTU Bioengineering is looking to recruit a PhD student, to start from 1 October 2025.
The laboratory performs cutting-edge experimental research in the field of protein and peptide phase separation and aggregation associated with human neurodegenerative diseases. The applied methods include protein engineering as well as various spectroscopy, confocal and electron microscopy, scattering, bio-sensing and microfluidics techniques and work on a range of protein systems — including alpha synuclein and TDP-43.
At DTU-Bioengineering you will break new ground at the absolute forefront of protein science and biophysics—tackling the molecular origins of neurodegenerative diseases of the brain. The overall aim of the research is to achieve a deep understanding of how protein aggregation starts and propagates via phase separated condensates — by developing dynamic, life-like experimental frameworks in test-tubes. The research also aims to challenge existing decades-old kinetic and thermodynamic frameworks of protein assembly pathways and develop new ones, by taking inspiration from the ‘out-of-equilibrium’ nature of living cells. To achieve these goals, you will also collaborate with world-leading protein scientists in Denmark (KU, DTU), and in the Netherlands (Radboud, TU-E, Wageningen).

PhD position summary/title: PhD scholarship in Future Marine Food Innovation – DTU National Food Institute
The DTU National Food Institute is offering a PhD scholarship focused on advancing marine foods and ingredients. The goals of this position are to: 1) identify new marine resources, including side-streams, by-products and underutilized biomasses, and assess their techno-functional properties and nutritional components, and 2) develop marine-based foods and/or ingredients by applying suitable process technologies, evaluating quality and safety, consumer acceptance, legislation, and sustainability. The results will contribute to DTU’s advisory efforts on future marine foods.
There is significant potential to rethink the perception of marine foods in Denmark, particularly with respect to incorporating plant-based elements into seafood, and with respect to the processing of marine raw materials, all to promote a healthy and sustainable diet. The outcomes of this work will influence developments in marine foods and ingredients, contributing to the creation of healthy, safe, and flavorful foods for the future. The work will follow an iterative approach, developing and refining prototypes in a stop-and-go process based on the results obtained. This effort will be conducted in collaboration with suppliers (fisheries, producers of algae and marine products), food innovators and chefs, and authorities. Identification of supply chain, bottlenecks or issues in advancing the development of future marine foods will be included.

PhD position summary/title: PhD scholarship in modeling of the next generation permanent magnets – DTU Energy
In this PhD-project we will model ideal structures of magnetic materials to investigate if we can realize a new magnet with superior properties compared to the best magnets available today. However, these are complicated to model because of the large number of magnetic interactions, so in order to overcome this challenge you have to further develop suitable numerical methods within our state-of-the-art open source micromagnetic model, MagTense. In the physical phenomenon that we are interested in modelling all the present magnetic sources interacting with each other, which leads to computational resources scaling with the number of sources squared – which is inherently problematic numerically. Furthermore, the differential equation used to evolve a magnetic system forward in time might be stiff, thus requiring special numerical techniques. In order to expedite the simulation, MagTense is based on a core implemented in the Fortran programming language, and it relies on the platform CUDA for parallelization of the computation over several GPUs’ cores. At the same time, the code is interfaced with Matlab and Python for ease of use.

PhD position summary/title: PhD scholarship in Impact and Scalability of Advanced Controls for Energy Demand Flexibility in Buildings – DTU Construct
In collaboration with Chalmers University of Technology (Chalmers), the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) offers a new PhD position, “Impact and Scalability of Advanced Controls for Energy Demand Flexibility in Buildings”. The PhD candidate will be supervised by supervisors from DTU and Chalmers. This project will integrate energy technology, building physics, HVAC systems, and computer science and control systems architecture, advancing all the above disciplines.
Building energy flexibility is an important resource for balancing and load shifting in energy networks, especially where variable renewable energy sources are involved. Emerging digital and cyber-physical systems technologies are an integral component of grid interactive efficient buildings. Through advanced control and operation of building HVAC systems, these technologies support both energy efficiency and flexible demand objectives. Model predictive control (MPC), which involves physics-based building energy models, and reinforcement learning (RL), which is data-driven, are two powerful control techniques. MPC techniques are well-established, while RL techniques are gaining popularity due to increasingly available sensor and meter infrastructure, affordable computational resources, and advanced modeling algorithms. MPCs excel in handling constrained optimizations and new operational conditions, whereas RLs offer computational efficiency and the ability to handle uncertainties. This project aims to identify promising RL-MPCs for application and upscaling in real-life building management settings.

PhD position summary/title: PhD Student – the role of Song Lyrics in Shaping Urban Mobility Cultures and related Transitions. A NLP approach. – DTU Management
Music is an important part of human culture. Songs communicate emotions, a sense of connection, and social identity. Such identities can be connected to specific cities or regions (e.g., in songs like “Sweet Home Alabama” or “Bochum”), but we also find that transport modes often play a more or less prominent role in song lyrics and are connected to specific identities and symbolic meanings. A typical example is the association of cars with freedom and autonomy. The symbolic and affective meanings connected to more sustainable modes (e.g. bicycles, trains) seem much more diverse. These meanings may, for example, differ depending on regions/countries, sub-cultures, and music genres, and may underlie specific changes, which may drive or be driven by cultural or political trends. Applying NLP, you will analyse large amounts of song lyrics in terms of the symbolic-affective meanings underlying transport modes and explore to what extent music influences or is influenced by urban mobility cultures.
