If you’re interested in how environmental chemicals can impact reproductive development, then this PhD is for you. We are seeking a candidate for a 3-year PhD to study how fetal exposure to endocrine disrupting chemicals can disrupt reproductive development. This project is particularly concerned with development of genitalia and how disrupted signaling early in life can cause reproductive diseases such as genital malformations. Genital malformations are among the most common congenital disorders in newborn babies. Up to 1 in 125 boys, are affected by defective penis development and are born ...

The aim of the PhD project is to develop, optimize and explore cellulose microparticles intended for oral drug delivery. Our focus will be on i) develop particles with high specificity to selected areas in the gastro-intestinal tract and ii) to optimize the drug delivery system to be able to deliver high amounts of drugs at a specific location. In the group, we are exploring and developing targeted and advanced drug delivery systems to be able to e.g. deliver vaccines and peptides and proteins by the oral route. With the ultimate goal of enhancing the systemic uptake to prevent and/or cure ...

Centre for Ocean Life ( www.OceanLifeCentre.dk) offers 3-year PhD fellowship(s) in trait-based modelling of life in the global ocean. The fellow(s) will be employed at DTU Aqua (The National Institute for Aquatic Resources, Technical University of Denmark). We expect the PhD candidates to develop, implement and analyse models of microbial life (plankton) and sinking particles based on the “Nutrient-Unicellular-Multicellular” model framework. The overall aim is to scale from traits of individual organisms to the function of the ecosystem on a global scale. The application should contain a ...

Do you want to contribute to a future where we can create the new generation of electronic logic device? At DTU Energy our research efforts are aiming at developing spintronic applications. Spintronics is a promising approach which goes beyond the operating principle in present-day electronics where the logic operation relies on the electron spin instead of its charge. Recently, heterostructures based on complex oxide systems have attracted a lot of interest in spintronics where the interconversion between electron spin and charge occurs through the spin-orbit coupling. Realising breakthroughs ...
