PhD Student in Multimodal Machine Learning for Energy Storage Materials
Department of Chemistry - Ångström conducts research and education in chemistry. The department has 270 employees and generates annual revenue of 300 million kronor. The department's six programs conduct highly successful research of international caliber. We have a large number of externally funded research projects, often with international collaboration, and we see continued strong growth within our field. The department provides education within engineering and civil engineering programs as well as master's programs. Project Description The development of tomorrow's energy storage materials relies on a fundamental understanding of how their chemical composition and structure change during operation in applications. No single method can capture the complete picture. Instead, researchers must rely on multiple complementary techniques, each providing an incomplete and indirect view of the same underlying process and which are traditionally interpreted manually and separately. Multimodal machine learning offers a principled alternative: integrating heterogeneous data streams from both experiments and simulations into a unified, physically grounded model. The project focuses on developing such a framework and applying it specifically to electrode/electrolyte interfaces in batteries, where surface-sensitive X-ray scattering techniques (X-ray reflectometry, GISAXS, and GIWAXS) and electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (EQCM-D) are combined in operando experiments. The core of the methodology is data assimilation, where the interface's underlying properties (mass, volume, density, porosity, and morphology) are treated as a latent state evolving in time, with each measurement technique contributing a noisy and incomplete observation through its own forward model. The work encompasses sequential Bayesian inference, deep state-space models, and uncertainty-aware representations trained on both experimental data and simulations, such as phase-field simulations of metal nucleation and growth coupled to lattice-Boltzmann modeling of the quartz crystal's acoustic response. Machine learning-accelerated surrogate models make these simulations sufficiently fast to function as transition and observation operators in the inference engine. Finally, the learned latent space is analyzed to extract physical meaning, and the models' generative capability is leveraged to translate data between techniques. The goal is an interpretable and uncertainty-quantified model of how interfaces form and grow, deepening understanding of metal deposition and surface passivation in Li-, Zn-, and Cu-based systems, and transferable to other materials and analytical techniques. The PhD student's task is to develop and implement this framework in close collaboration between chemistry and computer science at Uppsala University and together with our German partners. This involves building and validating inference and simulation pipelines, actively participating in planning and conducting operando experiments – including measurement campaigns at the synchrotron facility PETRA III (DESY, Hamburg) – and developing deep expertise in probabilistic machine learning, data assimilation, scientific computing, and analysis of electrochemical interfaces. The PhD student's focus is research. Some teaching responsibility may be assigned but will not exceed 20% of total working time. The PhD student will also take graduate courses closely connected to the project's research themes. We are looking for a highly motivated person who will contribute to high-quality scientific work in a multidisciplinary research environment, aiming to publish results in leading scientific journals and present them at both national and international conferences. Qualifications Required Applicants must have: - completed a degree at an advanced level, or - completed course requirements of at least 240 credits, of which at least 60 credits at advanced level (of which 15 credits constitute independent work), with content relevant to doctoral studies, or - in some other way, within or outside the country, acquired substantially equivalent knowledge - very good knowledge of English, both spoken and written - a degree at an advanced level or equivalent as described above in chemistry, materials science, computer science, applied mathematics, engineering physics, or a related field - the ability to express yourself clearly, document your work, and contribute to the community in a research environment Great weight will also be placed on personal qualities such as good collaboration skills, drive, and independence, as well as how the applicant, through their experience and competence, is assessed to have the ability to manage doctoral studies. Desirable/Meriting Additional Qualifications Practical experience with probabilistic machine learning, Bayesian inference, generative models, data assimilation, or scientific computing is meriting, as are strong programming skills (e.g., Python, PyTorch, or JAX). Experience with electrochemistry, battery research, X-ray scattering techniques, or analysis of experimental time series data is also advantageous. About the Position The employment is temporary according to the Higher Education Ordinance (HF) 5 chapter § 7. Full-time position. Start date October 1, 2026, or by agreement. Work location: Chemistry-Ångström Regulations for PhD students are found in the Higher Education Ordinance 5 chapter §§ 1-7 and in the university's rules and guidelines.

Postdoctoral Researcher in Physical Geography with Focus on the Future of the Greenland Ice Sheet
Postdoctoral Researcher in Physical Geography with Focus on the Future of the Greenland Ice Sheet Would you like to work studying mass changes of Greenland's ice sheet, supported by competent and friendly colleagues in an international environment? Do you want an employer that invests in sustainable employee relationships and offers secure, attractive working conditions? We welcome you to apply for a postdoctoral position at Uppsala University. The Department of Earth Sciences is Sweden's most comprehensive academic environment for research and education in geoscience. Here you will find broad expertise that contributes to solutions for important societal challenges. Earth is a dynamic planet that is constantly changing. To understand how our planet works, our researchers seek answers in the field, through laboratory experiments, and advanced models. Our research and education cover a wide range of areas: rocks and minerals, weather and climate, the evolution of life, natural disasters, wind energy and energy, environmental and water engineering, and sustainable development. Our research combines natural sciences and engineering with social sciences and is often interdisciplinary. The department employs over 300 people from more than 30 countries, both in Uppsala and at Campus Gotland. Our six research divisions: Geophysics • Air, Water and Landscape Science • Mineralogy, Petrology and Tectonics • Natural Resources and Sustainable Development • Paleobiology • Wind Energy For more information, see: https://www.uu.se/institution/geovetenskaper The advertised position is within the research program Air, Water and Landscape Science (LUVAL), which brings together research and education in hydrology, meteorology, environmental analysis, and physical geography. Research in physical geography has a main focus on cold environments, with a primary emphasis on glaciological topics, but also other aspects of the cryosphere. Duties The postdoctoral researcher will work on a project funded by the Swedish Space Agency, with the primary aims of creating a new mapping of bedrock topography and ice thickness for the Greenland ice sheet, and simulating the ice sheet's development through 2300. To achieve this, a new inverse modeling-based method will be used that reconstructs the bedrock topography beneath the ice, while also providing a starting point for predictive modeling. Following recent applications on plateaus and valley glaciers in the Arctic and subarctic (see, for example, Frank and Van Pelt, 2024; Van Pelt and Frank, 2025), and an application to all valley glaciers on Earth (Frank et al. 2026), the method will be optimized in this project for use on the Greenland ice sheet, while utilizing the latest high-resolution satellite data products. Ice flow modeling will be conducted using the Parallel Ice Sheet Model (PISM), though machine learning alternatives such as the Instructed Glacier Model (IGM) will also be considered. The project will involve close collaboration with a doctoral student in the same research group at Uppsala University as well as collaboration with international colleagues at Oslo University, Mid Sweden University, the Danish Meteorological Institute, University of Liège, University of Fairbanks, and University of Lausanne. The position includes 20% teaching at the Department of Earth Sciences, Uppsala University, in earth science (physical geography/hydrology) at undergraduate and advanced levels.

Here you will find broad expertise that contributes to solutions for important societal challenges. Earth is a dynamic planet that is constantly changing. To understand how our planet works, our researchers seek answers in the field, through laboratory experiments, and advanced models. Our research and education cover many different areas: rocks and minerals, weather and climate, the evolution of life, natural disasters, wind power and energy, environmental and water engineering, and sustainable development. Our research combines natural science and engineering with social science and is often interdisciplinary. The department employs over 300 people from more than 30 countries, both in Uppsala and at Campus Gotland. Our six research divisions: • Geophysics • Air, Water and Landscape Science • Mineralogy, Petrology and Tectonics • Natural Resources and Sustainable Development • Paleobiology • Wind Energy For more information, see: https://www.uu.se/institution/geovetenskaper The successful candidate for this position will be employed at the Air, Water and Landscape Science (LUVAL) program at the Department of Earth Sciences. Responsibilities Turbulent flows at the air–sea–ice interface in the marginal ice zone (MIZ)—the transition zone between open water and pack ice—are critical for polar weather, ecosystems, and climate on both local and global scales. The presence of sea ice floes, varying in size from centimeters to hundreds of kilometers, creates an exceptionally heterogeneous surface with varying roughness and temperature profiles. These characteristics significantly affect momentum and heat fluxes across the air–sea–ice interface and other processes. Despite this importance, our understanding of turbulent flows at the interface in the MIZ remains fragmented and poorly represented in current weather and climate models. The postdoctoral project will focus on: implementing new turbulent parameterizations for the marginal ice zone (MIZ) in Earth system models (regional or global), and assessing the impact of MIZ processes on polar extreme cyclones and their broader consequences for polar climate. Requirements PhD in atmospheric or ocean science, or a related field, or a foreign degree assessed as equivalent to a PhD in the above subject.

PhD Student in Nature-Inspired Biochar-Enzyme Composites for PFAS Remediation The Department of Earth Sciences is Sweden's most comprehensive academic environment for research and education in geosciences. Here you will find broad expertise that contributes to solutions for important societal challenges. Our research combines natural sciences and engineering with social sciences and is often interdisciplinary. At the department, over 300 people from more than 30 countries work, both in Uppsala and at Campus Gotland. Our six research divisions: • Geophysics • Air, Water and Landscape Science • Mineralogy, Petrology and Tectonics • Natural Resources and Sustainable Development • Paleobiology • Wind Energy For more information see: www.uu.se/geovetenskaper Project Description: The project, EnzCarb4PFAS, focuses on developing lignin-based biochar materials with high PFAS sorption capacity and immobilizing enzymes on their surfaces to enable simultaneous adsorption and catalytic defluorination. Lignin, a renewable by-product from the pulp and paper industry, is converted into highly porous biochar that concentrates PFAS from contaminated water. Enzyme immobilization on the biochar surface extends enzyme lifespan, improves substrate accessibility, and creates a synergistic system where adsorption brings PFAS into close contact with the enzyme's active sites. The research proceeds through three coordinated work packages: (WP1) screening of extracellular enzymes for PFAS transformation using real contaminated groundwater; (WP2) development and validation of biochar-enzyme composites; and (WP3) pilot-scale testing in lysimeter systems with contaminated water and soil from former fire training sites. The PhD student will work under the main supervision of Assistant Professor Tetyana Budnyak and co-supervision of Professor Fritjof Fagerlund. The project is funded by a Tuffo grant, with co-financing from Uppsala University. The research subject for your doctoral studies is environmental analysis. The project will involve close collaboration with industry partners and other relevant actors, as well as with academic research groups in Sweden and internationally, which gives the PhD student the opportunity to work in a broad, interdisciplinary, and collaboration-oriented research environment. Duties The main task of a PhD student is to pursue doctoral research training, which includes both participation in research projects and research training courses. The duties may also include participation in teaching and other departmental work, but no more than 20% of working time. The duties will include synthesis and characterization of lignin-based biochar materials, screening and immobilization of enzymes, and evaluation of PFAS adsorption and degradation performance in laboratory column experiments and pilot-scale lysimeter systems with real PFAS-contaminated soil and groundwater. Qualification Requirements To be eligible for doctoral-level education, you must have completed a degree at advanced level in chemistry, biochemistry, environmental chemistry, materials science, environmental engineering, or related fields completed at least 240 higher education credits, of which at least 60 higher education credits at advanced level including an independent thesis of at least 15 higher education credits, or acquired substantially equivalent knowledge in some other way.
