PhD position summary/title: PhD scholarship in Bayesian Inference for Inverse Problems with Sampling Conditioned on Functionals
This PhD project focuses on the theoretical and computational aspects of sampling from function spaces in Bayesian inference. We specifically address the situation where the inverse problem being solved requires the sampled functions to satisfy conditions that are formulated in terms of probability distributions, and that therefore carry an inherent uncertainty. We shall use the modern setting of pseudodifferential equations to explore, characterize and design sampling conditioned on general classes of functionals. Furthermore, we shall produce, validate, and use numerical implementations of samplers conditioned on functionals to strengthen and further inspire our analysis, as well as to achieve practical working samplers applicable in the solution of concrete inverse problems. Finally, for a selected set of challenging inverse problems, we shall custom-build and demonstrate the developed samplers.

PhD position summary/title: PhD position in Multi-scale, multiphysics, mechanical focused modelling of solid oxide cell stacks
The current PhD study aims towards minimizing the risk of failure. This will be done through adding to an already developed multi-scale and multiphysics model of the stacks. This model uses so-called homogenization / localization to step between scales. This development has been made to make fast computation of various physical fields available on the stack scale and make transient modelling possible. Because of the computational efficiency the methodology has been adopted by most European solid oxide cell stack developers. The stack scale model will not reveal the local stresses, which are needed to investigate if any failures occur. The aim of the PhD project is to research and further develop on the mechanical part of the multi-scale model, to map global (average) stresses from the stack scale model to local models, in order to investigate for failure.

PhD position summary/title: PhD in Immune Receptor Immunoinformatics
The Section of Bioinformatics, DTU Health Tech is world leading within Immunoinformatics and Machine-Learning. Currently, we are seeking a highly talented and motivated PhD student within the field of Immune receptor Immunoinformatics. Identification of T and B cell epitopes plays a major role in several biotechnological and clinical tasks and is central to our understanding of the immune system. T cells scrutinize the surface of cells for foreign peptides presented in complex with MHC (Major histocompatibility complex) molecules. MHC merely presents a minor proportion of the peptides produced within a cell on the cell surface, and only a minor proportion of these (termed epitopes) are recognized by T cells. Likewise, antibodies (or B cell receptors) recognize their molecular targets, termed antigens, in a highly specific manner via interactions between their binding site (paratope) and a specific region of the antigen (the epitope). Identifying the rules underlying the properties of these epitopes and their interaction with the target immune receptors is thus at the foundation for our basic understanding of adaptive immunity.

PhD position summary/title: PhD project on the design, synthesis and properties of large scale nanowire lattices
Usually, nanoscale engineering using state-of-the-art semiconductor processing starts with a crystal wafer which is then shaped using lithography, etching, milling, or metal sputtering to achieve the desired shape and functionality. While this approach is powerful and flexible the processes leave the crystals damaged and uncontrolled at the nano scale. For some purposes such imperfections are disastrous. In contrast, when crystals are growing, atoms can self-assemble into perfect atomic arrangement, and in recent years, new techniques have been developed which use semiconductor processing to direct subsequent crystal growth, thus enabling design of structures with atomic uniformity. This PhD project joins an ongoing effort exploring this approach for design ultra-uniform lattices of nanoscale semiconductor wires grown by molecular beam epitaxy using “selective area growth”. If lattices are sufficiently uniform and their lattice constants sufficiently small, these macroscopic crystals can attain properties which combine those of the host crystal and those of the designed “super”-lattice. This provides an exciting route for designing material properties and the overall aim of this project is to design and study the band structure of the superlattices and artificially induced electron correlations as encoded in the Hubbard model.
