Chalmers University is inviting applicants to fill several PhD. scholarships for international students in different fields of AI and other advanced sciences. See below and click on each position of interest to visit the official post.
One PhD position that is placed at the Division of Interaction Design and Software Engineering, with Chalmers University of Technology as the employer. As part of your research project, you will (micro-)benchmark Java-based applications using JMH. You will collect performance measurements from real projects, statistically analyse them, and conduct experiments with modern machine learning techniques (e.g., deep neural networks, graph neural networks, or active learning) with the goal of predicting the performance impact of code changes. A strong background in software engineering as well as some interest in machine learning will be required for this project. Interest in compilers and the Java Virtual Machine are a benefit to this project.

The development of new acceptor materials for organic solar cells has led to a steady increase in device efficiencies, reaching more than 17% today. A remaining challenge is the relatively poor long-term stability of organic solar cells. The goal of your research will be to understand how the use of mixtures of acceptor molecules influences and improves the stability of organic solar cells.
Application deadline: 31 May, 2024
The position is in the field of data-driven epidemiology and biology of infection, which covers research that will transform our understanding of pathogens, their interactions with hosts and the environment, and how they are transmitted through populations. The research in this field have a strong focus on computational analysis or predictive modelling of pathogen biology or host-microbe systems for which multidimensional, genome-scale experimental data are now available or it may use population-scale genetic, clinical, or public health data from pathogen surveillance efforts and biobanks.
The position is interdisciplinary and combines mathematics and computer science with applications in biology in medicine. A substantial part of the research will therefore be done in close collaboration with scientists from different disciplines. The Ph.D. position will be supervised by Professor Erik Kristiansson and will be part of a research group combining multiple competencies. The position will be co-supervised by Professor Joakim Larsson at the Department of Infectious Diseases, University of Gothenburg, Johan Bengtsson-Palme, Chalmers University of Technology, and Dr. Anna Johnning, Fraunhofer-Chalmers Centre.
