**Your job**: European enforcement integration without a level playing field of common norms, customs, and enforcement practices is a utopia. Yet, the level and degree of approximation of criminal systems touches upon the very essence and nature of the EU. Clearly, some degree of level playing field is necessary to promote European values, for enforcement...

**The Tytgat Group** Our group’s mission is to translate foundational research into clinical practice. With a focus on imaging, we assess the clinical efficacy of imaging techniques for staging and prognosis in newly diagnosed patients, as well as their prognostic significance during follow-up. We aim to leverage imaging findings to measure therapy...

**Work Activities**: - Scientific background - _The energy consumption of computers is a significant scientific and societal problem: Information technology is already responsible for more CO2 emissions than the airline industry. At the fundamental level, the energy cost of a computation is dictated by the laws of thermodynamics: computations must evolve in...

**Your job**: This interdisciplinary PhD research project aims to explore the conditions under which farm businesses are empowered to transition to regenerative agriculture, as well as to interrogate the role of existing regenerative agriculture schemes and key, but often overlooked food system actors (among which farmer organisations, banks, advisors and...

**Two PhD positions: Metasurfaces for energy-efficient wave-based computing**: **Work Activities**: Metasurfaces are ultra-flat and compact nanophotonic elements that are pursued worldwide to replace conventional bulky optical elements like mirrors, lenses, and prisms. Going beyond simple optics replacements, metasurfaces can also perform data processing on...

**Your job**: In single case experimental designs (SCEDs), as applied in therapy effect evaluation, 10-15 measurements of 2-4 outcome variables are typically taken over time. Despite the relative small amount of data, a powerful evaluation can be obtained if (i) the therapy effect on all the outcome variables is evaluated simultaneously, and (ii) the...

With the pressing need to reduce the use of synthetic fertilizers, this PhD project explores the microbial interplay between sulfur and nitrogen metabolism in crops like soybean. By utilising advanced metagenomics, transcriptomics, and elemental analysis, the project aims to identify plant-microbe regulatory networks that enhance crop nutrition and...

**Your job**: Many of the standard equations in mathematical physics are based on the fundamental assumption that matter is continuous. In this project, we will revisit such equations by dropping this continuum assumption. We will consider spatial networks - random graph-like structures that permeate space - as the basis and attempt to describe commonly used...

Are you interested in university change agent education and how it leads to societal impact? The Copernicus Institute of Sustainable Development is offering a combined PhD - Lecturer position for someone with strong data analytics skills and a keen interest in different forms of change agent education. **Your job**: Universities are increasingly expected to...

Methane emissions are a key driver of global temperature rise, contributing 0.3-0.8°C since pre-industrial times. Reducing these emissions is essential for mitigating climate change. Join the EU-funded Investigating Methane for Climate Action (IM4CA) project to pioneer field-based methane measurements using mobile platforms, driving innovation in emission...

We offer a PhD position for 4 years in stem cell treatment in mouse models for Parkinson's Disease.
