    About the positionThe Department of Plant Science, Faculty of Biosciences at the Norwegian University of Life Sciences (NMBU) has a vacant three-year PhD–position related to plant photobiology.The PhD project is closely associated with the FlexiFarm project: “Flexible Farming Solutions to Minimize Energy Expenditure and Create New Revenue Streams in Vertical Farming”. The project aims to understand the energy flexibility of vertical farms (VFs) by studying how fluctuating lighting and temperature affect productivity. By following spot market prices and using energy when prices are low, VFs can drastically reduce their energy costs, though this is only viable if crop yield is not affected by fluctuating conditions. As photosynthesis is such a crucial factor underlying crop yield in both ope...

    About the positionThe Department of Plant Sciences Faculty of Biosciences at the Norwegian University of Life Sciences (NMBU) has a vacant 3-year PhD–position related to improving Nitrogen Use Efficiency (NUE) in perennial ryegrass for sustainable farming.Perennial ryegrass is widely cultivated across Norwegian farms and is vital for livestock feeding. However, excessive nitrogen fertilization contributes to severe environmental concerns, including nitrate pollution and greenhouse gas emissions. This project addresses these issues by utilizing advance genomics, phenomics and data models to improve perennial ryegrass cultivars with enhanced NUE to significantly reduce fertilizer inputs, mitigate environmental impacts, and promote sustainable agricultural practices. The project uniquely inte...

    About the positionThe Department of Preclinical Sciences and Pathology (Immunology), Faculty of Veterinary Medicine at the Norwegian University of Life Sciences (NMBU) has a vacant 3-year PhD position related to the development of mRNA-based immunotherapies.Lymphosarcoma (LSA) is one of the most common malignant canine tumours, and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) has a high translational value to human non-Hodgkins’s lymphoma. Despite the success of immunotherapy in human patients, there are few immunotherapeutic options for dogs with LSA.  The candidate will be responsible for assessing a new mRNA-based immunotherapeutic drug in a preclinical setting under the supervision of a team of scientists with broad experience in relevant scientific fields. The candidate will participate in d...
