1. Fully Funded PhD Position in Evolutionary Genomics and Island Biology
Summary of PhD Program:
Some of the most diverse lineages on our planet (e.g. Darwin’s Finches and Hawaiian Silverswords), are found in oceanic archipelagos. Paradoxically, species in these regions often have small population sizes, frequently experience bottlenecks and founder events, and are prone to inbreeding—all factors typically detrimental to genetic diversity. How, then, can these remotely located lineages, subject to such genetic constraints, maintain enough diversity to radiate and evolve? This project aims to explore this fascinating paradox.
Application Deadline: 18th October 2024
2. Fully Funded PhD Position in Microrhythm
Summary of PhD Program:
A Doctoral Research Fellowship (SKO 1017) in Microrhythm is available at RITMO Centre for Interdisciplinary Studies in Rhythm, Time and Motion at the University of Oslo. The Doctoral Research Fellow is expected to investigate the production and perception of musical rhythm using a combination of qualitative and quantitative methods. The candidate will collaborate with researchers in relevant RITMO projects on the analysis and interpretation of microrhythm in existing musical (audio) and music-dance (audio and video) corpora. Research into a self-collected/curated corpus of related music or music-dance can also be part of the project.
Application Deadline: 11th November 2024

3. Fully Funded PhD Position in Philosophy – “How do we understand machines that talk to us?”
Summary of PhD Program:
A Doctoral Research Fellowship (SKO 1017) in Philosophy is available at the Department of Philosophy, Classics, history of Art and Ideas, University of Oslo. The position is associated with the project “How do we understand machines that talk to us? Communication with large language models (LLMs)”, funded by the University of Oslo. The research fellow will be responsible for conducting theoretical and/or experimental research on the pragmatics of human-LLM interaction. The candidate is expected to present a research project closely connected to the main project.
Application Deadline: 1st November 2024
