Doctoral student in Earth Observation, Data Science, and AI for poverty estimation Can satellites see poverty—and can AI help end it? We are looking for a Doctoral student to develop deep-learning methods that estimate living conditions across Africa from satellite imagery, and to compare different satellites for this purpose. Then, we use these estimates to evaluate how well villages and cities in Africa and beyond will achieve the Sustainable Development Goals. You will be mentored by an interdisciplinary team and join an internationally connected lab committed to your growth as a researcher. About us The https://www.chalmers.se/en/departments/cse/, a joint department of Chalmers and the University of Gothenburg, spans the breadth of computing disciplines. Our internationally visible research, strong industry links and diverse environment create a collaborative setting where ideas grow into real impact. At the https://www.chalmers.se/en/departments/cse/our-research/data-science-and-ai/, we develop data-driven methods and AI solutions that support intelligent decisions across society, advancing machine-learning techniques from foundations to industrial and scientific applications. About the Lab The position is hosted by the http://www.aidevlab.org based at the Division of Data Science and AI (DSAI), Department of Computer Science and Engineering, Chalmers University of Technology, and the Institute for Analytical Sociology, Linköping University. The Lab advances the use of AI for Social Good in pursuit of the Sustainable Development Goals. The Lab brings together collaborators in Sweden, the United States, India, Chile, and the United Kingdom, and publishes in top interdisciplinary generalist journals, discipline-specific journals, and AI conferences. Because the work is highly interdisciplinary, we welcome candidates from a range of backgrounds and adapt our publication strategy to the doctoral student’s interests and trajectory. Work environment The Lab meets weekly, both in person and remotely, with collaborators across multiple time zones. The doctoral project is a collaboration mainly among the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at Chalmers, the Department of Earth Sciences at the University of Gothenburg, the Institute for Analytical Sociology at Linköping University (campus Norrköping), and the Department of Statistics at Harvard University. Occasional travel within Sweden and abroad is part of the role. Leadership and mentorship The Lab is headed by http://www.adeldaoud.com, who will serve as the principal supervisor.

Scholars and policymakers lack the fine-grained geo-temporal data needed to identify which communities are reaching the Sustainable Development Goals and which interventions are working. The doctoral project, “Comparing Earth Observation and AI Methods for Sustainable Development,” is funded by the Swedish National Space Agency (SNSA / Rymdstyrelsen) and runs within the Lab’s Observatory of Poverty programme. The project pursues three objectives: Develop deep-learning methods that estimate multidimensional poverty from Sentinel-2 satellite imagery of African communities over time and space. Compare the quality and computational cost of poverty estimates produced from satellites with different resolutions—Pléiades (2 m), Sentinel-2 (10 m), and Landsat (30 m)—to identify the optimal trade-off between precision and cost. Apply AI explainability methods to understand what visual features drive the model’s poverty predictions, and to build trust in earth-observation-based estimates for policy use. The doctoral student will lead all three work packages in close collaboration with the supervision team and contribute to the ObservatoryOfPoverty open-source statistical software.

Join our team to explore how inflamed tissues communicate with immune cells, and help develop new experimental platforms to understand these processes. About us  The https://www.chalmers.se/en/departments/life/ conducts research, innovation, and education to enable a biobased society and improve human health. We explore how biological systems, and innovative technologies can be used to convert biomass into valuable products. We use advanced computational technologies to discover how biomolecules and organisms function and interact. We pioneer new methods for prediction, prevention, diagnostics and treatment of diseases.  About the research project   This project focuses on understanding how biochemical and structural changes in the extracellular matrix (ECM) during inflammation influence immune cell activation. You will develop controlled model systems that integrate tissues, ECM-modifying enzymes, and immune cells to study nanoscale alterations, glycosylation changes, and damage-associated signals (DAMPs). The platform enables systematic investigation of ECM–immune interactions and provides a foundation for designing future biomaterials and therapeutic strategies. Who we are looking for The following requirements are mandatory: To qualify as a Doctoral student, you must have a Master's degree (masterexamen) of 120 credits or a Master’s degree (magisterexamen) of 60 credits* in biotechnology, biomedical engineering, bioengineering, chemistry, chemical engineering, or a closely related field Strong written and verbal communication skills in English  Experience in experimental laboratory work in molecular biology, biomaterials, cell biology, or biochemistry Strong analytical thinking, curiosity, and the ability to work independently and part of a multidisciplinary team *for students with an education earned outside of Sweden, a 4-year Bachelor’s degree is accepted.  The following experience will strengthen your application:  Experience with cell culture and immune cell assays Experience with biomaterials, extracellular matrix models, or tissue engineering Familiarity with nanomaterials, glycoscience, or advanced imaging techniques Experience with data analysis (e.g. Python, MATLAB, or similar) What you will do Take courses at an advanced level within the Graduate school of Bioscience ( https://www.chalmers.se/en/research/we-train-new-researchers/graduate-schools/bioscience/https://www.chalmers.se/en/research/we-train-new-researchers/graduate-schools/bioscience/)  The position generally also includes teaching on Chalmers' undergraduate level or performing other duties corresponding to 20 percent of working hours Develop and characterize experimental ECM-based model systems Perform cell-based assays to study immune activation Investigate nanoscale and biochemical changes in ECM during inflammation Analyze and interpret experimental data Communicate your results in scientific publications and presentations Collaborate with researchers across disciplines Contract terms   The Doctoral student positions are fully funded from start.  The position is a fixed-term appointment of four years, with the possibility to teach up to 20%, which extends the position up to five years.  A starting salary of 35,725 SEK per month (valid from May 1, 2026).  Doctoral studies require physical presence throughout the entire study period. A valid residence permit must be presented by the study start date; otherwise the admission may be withdrawn.  What we offer  As a Doctoral student at Chalmers, you are an employee and enjoy all employee benefits.
