Positions in DFG-Funded Projects

The Faculty of Life Sciences and the Faculty of Medicine seek to fill the positions in the new Research Training Group “Molecular Tuning of neuronal communication – NeuroTune” funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG).

NeuroTune is a joint initiative of the Faculty of Life Sciences and the Faculty of Medicine at Leipzig University. This collaborative spirit, woven into the fabric of the programme, distinguishes the Research Training Group from traditional pathways to a doctoral degree and provides doctoral researchers from both faculties with an understanding of how basic research and translational research are tightly interconnected.

The IRTG is a joint research initiative of the stochastic analysis group of FU, HU, TU and WIAS Berlin with its counterpart at the University of Oxford. The advertised positions will be based in Berlin and will offer ample opportunities to interact also with members of the Oxford team, most notably in a 6-months exchange.

Embedded in a truly international environment, the IRTG students will get excellent research training in a structured programme focussing on challenges at the mathematical foundations of Stochastic Analysis as well as on challenges arising from its various applications, e.g., in physics, biology, finance or data science. The combined expertise from the Berlin and Oxford groups will provide a significant breadth in depth and fertile ground for our students' ambitious research ideas.

Successful candidates will have an MSc degree (or equivalent) in Mathematics (or a closely related field), strong knowledge of stochastic analysis, and feel eager to engage in the exchange of ideas with the teams in both Berlin and Oxford.

Within the framework of the interdisciplinary research training group 3040, “Copolymer Informatics: Blending digital technologies and copolymer chemistry – From design to application” eight doctoral researcher positions are being offered at either the Friedrich Schiller University Jena or the University of Bayreuth starting on October 1, 2025.

In COIN, computer science as well as robotic methods are to be developed and further optimized so that they can be applied in polymer research and particularly for copolymers. Their application will enable a targeted combination of synthesis, processing and properties of copolymers.
