PhD Scholarship in Theoretical Physics, Computational Biology at Lund University

Overview
PhD Scholarship in Theoretical Physics, Computational Biology - LUND UNIVERSITY The student will work in the area of dynamical modelling of biological networks, in particular in relation to network evolution. Primary biological topics to be addressed are the evolutionary origins and design principles of circadian clocks, but the computational tools and programs to be developed may also be applied to stem cell regulation and other biological systems. There will also be opportunity to do detailed, data-driven modelling of circadian clocks in plants.

PhD Scholarship in Biophysical Chemistry

Overview
The position is linked to the research project "Molecular basis of heat and desiccation tolerance of bacterial cells and spores", funded by Nestec Ltd, Lund University and the Swedish Research Council. The research work will be carried out at the Division of Biophysical Chemistry, which belongs to the Center for Molecular Protein Science in the Department of Chemistry. The Division is located at Lund University`s Center for Chemistry and Chemical Engineering (Kemicentrum). Kemicentrum is one of the largest research units for chemistry in Scandinavia with a staff of ca 400 and a yearly research budget of ca 350 million SEK. Research within the Division of Biophysical Chemistry ranges from water physics and nuclear spin relaxation theory to fundamental and applied problems in the life sciences, with a focus on protein interactions and dynamics.

AUN/SEED-Net Short-term Study Program in Japan

Overview
It is essential for AUN/SEED-Net students to conduct high quality doctoral thesis research of international standard and to complete doctoral degrees within three years. The AUN/SEED-Net Project thus provides thesis research assistance for AUN/SEED-Net students through the joint thesis research supervision from Japanese Supporting Universities. To facilitate this assistance, Collaborative Research Program has been introduced, in which each Host Institution, in consultation with Japanese Supporting Universities identifies a few well-defined and focused Collaborative Research Themes (or research umbrellas), each of which is a sub-area of research defined by several key words leading to a number of interrelated and progressively conducted possible thesis research topics. Then some of those research themes/topics will be carried out by AUN/SEED-Net students under joint supervision of Host Institutions and Japanese Supporting Universities, while other research topics are encouraged to be carried out by graduate students of Member Institutions as well.
