It also has reciprocal exchange agreements with many of the world’s leading universities (including Caltech, ETH Zurich, National University of Singapore, Cornell University, Tsinghua University, etc.).
Available Subjects:
Position 1: Postdoc on Machine Learning Technologies for Fibre Channel Communication
- Applications are invited for a 2-year postdoctoral research position funded by the Villum Foundation Synergy: “Machine Learning Enabled Fiber Optic Communication (MARBLE)” The goal of the MARBLE project is to develop novel non-linear Fibre Channel communication strategies based on machine learning. The start date is flexible, but preferably before 1 October 2023. The project is interdisciplinary and will cover topics from machine learning and optical communications. The project will be carried out in the Machine Learning for Photonic Systems (MLiPS) group. The group has a proven track record and industrial collaboration in the application of machine learning techniques to optical communication systems and photonic systems in general.

Position 3: Postdoc in Probabilistic Modelling and Bioinformatics
- Would you like to help us shape the future of histological analysis? We are looking for a skilled and enthusiastic Postdoc in Bioinformatics to build advanced machine learning and probabilistic models to better interpret histological data. If so, please consider joining the Isomeric Analysis group in the Department of Bioinformatics at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU). Here you will work closely with talented researchers who want to make a difference. Importantly, you will join a collaborative group where you will get a lot of support, but you will also have a lot of autonomy in a department where you will get a variety of opinions.

Position 4: Postdoc in Advanced Multibody Solids Computational Automation Workflow
- As a CAMD postdoc in the VILLUM Investigator project, you will develop new methods to characterise the electronic structure of bulk and low-dimensional materials and integrate them into automated workflows to enable their application in high-throughput screening projects. Code development should target both CPU and GPU computing architectures. You will work in an international and stimulating environment with other PhD students and postdocs, using state-of-the-art computational methods and code developed within the group. The CAMD DTU Physics Department is located in the northern part of Copenhagen and offers an international and scientifically stimulating working environment. The department develops the GPAW electronic structure code, the Atomic Simulation Environment (ASE) and other open source software projects and databases. The project has access to significant computing resources through the DTU supercomputer facility in Niflheim.

Position 5: Postdoc in Theory and Simulation of Thin Film Driven Polymer Devices with Acoustic Fluids for Biotechnological Applications
- A unique opportunity is available in the research group of Prof. Henrik Bruus at the Department of Physics (DTU Physics) at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU). We offer a postdoctoral position to participate in the development of novel polymer-based thin film transducer-driven acoustic fluid devices for isolation and enrichment of exosomes from blood for next generation point-of-care diagnostics. Exosomes are nanoscale extracellular vesicles released by a variety of different cell types. They are considered to be important biomarkers with high diagnostic potential in a wide range of diseases, including several types of cancer, hepatitis, renal, cardiovascular and liver diseases. Working closely with our project partners in transducer materials science, biomedical engineering and industrial acoustic flow control applications, this postdoctoral project will provide the theoretical and numerical modelling components for the development of such novel acoustic flow control devices. The project is hosted by the Department of Biophysics and Fluids at DTU Physics and is part of the European Innovation Council project AcouSome, which involves partners from DTU, Lund University, the biotech company AcouSort and the innovation studio Day One.
