hela Sverige Örebro University is currently offering doctoral research study opportunities within the Newbreed programme, part-funded by a grant from the EU Horizon 2020 Marie Sklodowska-Curie COFUND programme. For candidates successfully completing the programme, the outcome will be the award of the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy (PhD). The start date of the programme is in the spring 2018.
Population ageing is undoubtedly a major challenge for the coming generations, and this therefore requires a "new breed" of researchers. The NEWBREED doctoral programme addresses this challenge through an interdisciplinary approach under the broad theme of "successful ageing".
In NEWBREED, the term "successful ageing" refers to the various processes that work towards supporting meaningful and (inter-)active life across the lifespan. As such, successful ageing is an umbrella term that encompasses biological, psychological, social, societal, and technological processes, and importantly their interaction and intersections, as well as questions of ageism, age relations and intergenerational relations. The NEWBREED doctoral programme also encompasses: the differences of emphasis between, inter alia, successful, active, positive and model ageing; the critiques of such concepts and traditions; and their practical, policy and theoretical implications.
The Newbreed doctoral programme invites applicants within all research disciplines at Örebro University. A directory of disciplines is found here.
The programme is divided into four themes (described below) and applicants are asked to apply within a specific theme:
• Ageing and psychosocial adjustment
• Ageing from a societal perspective
• Ageing and the fourth industrial revolution
• The biology of ageing
