PhD Representatives

This webpage is not always immediately updated after the PhD Council meetings for all PhD students, when the PhD representatives are elected. The information below is guaranteed to be correct as of December 8th, 2011.

Below follows a list of the postgraduate representatives in the different school bodies at KTH CSC, and also short personal presentations of the representatives in alphabetic order.

Note that there are still vacant positions! Since the working language of the school is Swedish, it is preferrable that postgraduate students should have a working knowledge of Swedish (at least regarding listening comprehension, speaking in English yourself is perfectly OK).

Short Personal Presentations

Mikael Lindahl (www.csc.kth.se/~lindahlm)

I have been at the division computational biology (CB) since February 2009 in Jeanette Hellgren Kotaleskis’s lab. My PHD research interests concerns basal ganglia and how it is involved in action selection and decision making. Basal ganglia are a group of subcortical nuclei controlling action selection and injury to basal ganglia can cause Parkinson’s or Huntington’s disease. I am working with computer models of spiking neural networks and use them to understand the function of basal ganglia.

Elina Eriksson

I am back again at my alma mater, after a period as a software developer and interaction designer and then PhD-studies at Uppsala University. I started my PhD-studies in 2006 and in october 2009 I presented my licentiate thesis: Making Sense of Usability - Organizational Change and Sensemaking when Introducing User-Centred Systems Design in Public Authorities. After the licentiate I started working here at the HCI-department at CSC.

Pedro de Carvalho Gomes (www.csc.kth.se/~pedrodcg)

I research Compositional Verification of Software in Theoretical Computer Science Department at KTH since 2010. Previously I finished my Master (2010) and my Bachelor (2003), both in the Computer Science department at Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais, Brazil. My current research interests are in Formal Methods field: Software Verification, Temporal Logics and Model Checking. Previously I researched P2P networks and Information Retrieval. I am also interest in the Complex networks theory, Graph Theory and Free Software development.
