8. Fully Funded PhD Position in grid connection of renewable energy systems
Summary
of PhD Program:
The integration of renewable energy in
the electrical grid is increasing. One key difference for the grid connection
of traditional electric power production such as nuclear power and hydropower,
that dominate the Swedish grid, and renewable energy, is that the generator can
be synchronously connected to the grid.
For intermittent energy sources, such
as ocean, wind and solar energy, the connection has to be made using as
intermediate step with power converters. By grid connecting using power
converters, the inertia from the generator is not transmitted to the grid,
leading to an electrical grid more sensitive to differences in produced and
consumed power, causing frequency fluctuations.

10. Fully Funded PhD Position in Conservation
Summary
of PhD Program:
Conservation is a multidisciplinary and
interdisciplinary academic field that spans the disciplines of
humanities/social sciences and science/technology. Conservation is about
managing cultural heritage and transferring resources from the past into the future
in a sustainable way. Research in conservation is thus about understanding the
past-present-future relationship. It also means investigating the role of
cultural heritage in the transition to a sustainable society, new perspectives
on renovation, reuse and recycling as part of a circular economy, and how
cultural heritage is valued, preserved, developed, used and consumed and why
and in what ways this is done, both conceptually and practically.

11. Fully Funded PhD Position in Immunophysiology
Summary
of PhD Program:
The unique ability of the human
endometrium to undergo monthly menstrual cycles of proliferation,
differentiation, breakdown, shedding and scar-less repair is fundamental to
mammalian life. Circulating and fluctuating ovarian hormones are known to
regulate the menstrual cycle, but the involved self-renewing mechanisms and
cellular contributions within the stem cell niches are largely unknown. In
fact, the localization and characteristics of endometrial stem cells still
remains to be defined, as does the functions of the immune cells, which at
times constitute up to 70% of the endometrial cellularity.

16. Fully Funded PhD Position in Molecular Epidemiology
Summary
of PhD Program:
A doctoral position with a focus on the
effects of alcohol consumption on cardiovascular health. The project aims to

microbiota and the circulating metabolome, using the SCAPIS Uppsala
and Malmö sub-cohorts. This inter-disciplinary project will contribute to our
biological and clinical understanding of the mechanisms driving CVD in
individuals with both low and high alcohol intake. Through the use of data
related to genetic variation, metabolomics, gut microbiota sequencing and
alcohol intake and cardiovascular risk factors and disease, the current project
will likely lead to the identification of biomarkers that predict response to
alcohol intake.
