Positions in DFG-Funded Projects

Sino-German International Research Training Group AMAIZE-P „Adaptation of maize-based food-feed-energy systems to limited phosphate resources“, University of Hohenheim (Stuttgart) and China Agricultural University (Beijing)

The Research Training Group (RTG) 2756 “Cytoskeletal elements of active matter – from molecular interactions to cellular biophysics (CYTAC)” at the University of Göttingen is currently inviting applications for 12 PhD Positions  (f, m, d) starting on January 1st, 2025. The salary is based on TV-L E13 and amounts to 65% of a full position for PhD candidates in chemistry and biology and to 75% in physics and mathematics. The positions are funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG) for 3 years with the possibility to extend up to 4 years.

The PhD students enrolled in this program will study different aspects of the cytoskeleton. The cytoskeleton is a complex network of protein filaments of living cells. It is responsible for the mechanical and dynamic properties of the cell and is thus instrumental for many important cellular functions. CYTAC is devoted to covering all length scales involved - from the level of individual molecules, through mesoscopic filaments and membranes, all the way to cells. Naturally, this research is performed in a highly interdisciplinary manner and involves physics, physical and bio-chemistry, cell biology, and mathematical data analysis.

Within the Research Training Group 2304 “Byzantium and the Euro-Mediterranean Cultures of War. Exchange, Differentiation and Reception”, which is financed by the DFG (German Research Foundation), there are at the Johannes Gutenberg University of Mainz 6 positions for doctoral research associates (pay scale TV-L13, 2/3 FTE)
to be filled by 1st October 2024 for a contract period of three years.

The Research Training Group (RTG) 2756 “Cytoskeletal elements of active matter – from molecular interactions to cellular biophysics (CYTAC)” at the University of Göttingen is currently inviting applications for a Postdoc Position (f, m, d) starting as soon as possible. This is a full-time position (100%, currently 39.8 hours per week) and the salary is based on the German public service salary scale E13 TVL. The position is funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG) for 2 years with the possibility to extend. 

Within CYTAC a motivated group of researchers is studying the cytoskeleton on all relevant length scales – from the level individual molecules, through mesoscopic filaments and membranes, all the way to cells. Naturally, this research is performed in a highly interdisciplinary manner and involves physics, physical and bio-chemistry, cell biology and mathematical data analysis. The RTG 2756 offers a vibrant academic environment.
