2008-02-19 02:42:00
Sweden. The PhD positions are offered at the Department of Applied Physics, in the group of Nuclear Engineering , Chalmers University of Technology. In here, research is performed in several fields of nuclear energy, such as reactor physics and dynamics, reactor diagnostics, thermal-hydraulics, neutron/radiation physics, nuclear chemistry and materials. The group has an internationally leading position is reactor diagnostics with noise analysis. Noise diagnostics concerns the study of fluctuating quantities in the core, primarily that of the neutron flux, which is induced by various technological processes being also random in character (flow induced vibrations, turbulent one- and two-phase flow etc.). The goal is that, from the measured neutron noise, to “unfold” the processes which induced the neutron noise.

The successful candidate will work under the supervision of Senior Research Fellow Dr Guiying Nie and Professor Lois Salamonsen on a project examining the role of a newly identified gene in the interface between aging and cancer. It is increasingly recognized that cancer occurs predominantly in older persons. More than 60% of new cancers and more than 70% of cancer deaths occur in people over the age of 65 years. Although it is well accepted that aging and cancer are intertwined, our knowledge about the relationship between aging and cancer at the biological levels is very limited; studies that address this knowledge gap are urgently needed.

Australia-PhD Scholarships in Bioinformatics/ Statistical Genetic
2008-02-06 11:51:00
University of Queensland, Australia Research title: Statistical and computational methods for gene mapping. The project will focus on statistical and computational methods for locating disease susceptibility genes. This will be based mainly on genome wide association approaches with a particular emphasis on an approach known as DNA pooling. The DNA pooling approach greatly decreases the cost of genome wide association approaches but brings with it a new set of computational and statistical challenges. There will also be scope in the project for work on more general approaches utilising genomewide data, including work on gene expression and related bioinformatics. The project will address a wide range of disease phenotypes and as such can be readily tailored to accommodate the specific interests of the student.
