Building on in-house fabricated devices, we have recently demonstrated the ability to shuttle electrons between gate defined quantum dots in Si/SiGe over micron-scale distances using only four different AC-voltages, independent of the distance covered arxiv.org/abs/2108.00879 . Theoretical consideration indicate good prospects for maintaining spin-coherence of the shuttled electron, which would make this approach very promising for scaling up semiconductor spin qubit devices. This position focuses on experimentally demonstrating coherent spin shuttling, shuttling-compatible high-fidelity qubit control and further ingredients for a shuttling-based architecture, using devices from academic or industrial fabrication.

Your Job:
Our Modeling and Simulation Group offers an interdisciplinary and agile research environment within a dynamic and diverse group. The project is an excellent example for research at the interface of computational systems biology and mathematics/statistics with a strong attitude to open research software development. For more information visit www.fz-juelich.de/ibg/ibg-1/modsim or github.com/modsim.
Quantifying the activity of enzymes operating within the large-scale biochemical network is a fundamental challenge in Systems Bio(tech)nology. Here, the unknown parameters must be inferred from models that are incomplete and data that involve errors. For such challenges, Bayesian analysis using Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) has become the gold standard.
For addressing high dimensional parameter inference problems with Bayesian statistics, powerful MCMC methods have been proposed, for example the MCMC differential evolution and the Riemann Manifold Langevin Monte Carlo methods. Because of the specific structure of the inference problems occurring in metabolic models, direct application of these MCMC algorithms is, however, not possible.
In this project, you will bring MCMC methods into the setting of metabolic flux inference and, with inspiration from existing algorithms, develop tailored MCMC algorithms. You will implement the ensuing algorithms in an existing C++ framework, validate and benchmark them with a realistic case study.
The main focus of the project can develop either more in the mathematical theory of MCMC, the implementation of code for the Jülich supercomputers (GPU/CPU), or being combined with a practical modeling project.

Your Job:
The centrepiece of PEM-FCs is the polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM), which should provide sufficient ionic conductivity and mechanical stability. However, the state-of-the-art PEMs Nafion and H3PO4/PBI either require sufficient hydration for good ion conductivity or lead to catalyst poisoning. This makes it necessary to look for alternatives with good ion conduction, even in the anhydrous state. Ionic liquids, especially protic phosphonium-based ionic liquids (PPILs), are promising candidates due to their high ionic conductivity at elevated temperatures and under anhydrous conditions. With this background, we need you to electrochemically characterize PPILs under different conditions. Your tasks in detail will be:

Promotion
Your Job:
The field of structural DNA nanotechnology holds a great promise for the realization of all-DNA building blocks with arbitrary complexity and shape at the sub-nanometer scale. Such structures can be used to construct artificial cell mimics and new materials. A scaffold-free DNA tile assembly is a programmable method for the formation of two- and three-dimensional DNA structures which self-assemble from a number of interacting single-stranded DNA molecules. An accurate prediction of DNA structures still remains difficult, which significantly slows down the development of new desirable nano-structures.
In this project, we will combine numerical models, experiments, and artificial intelligence (AI) to guide the design of specific DNA nanoconstructs. The primary goal is to build an AI-based digital twin, which can predict the assortment and sequence of two-dimensional all-DNA motifs required for the engineering desired tessellation patterns at the nanometer scale. We will use available DNA thermodynamic database, coarse-grained simulations of DNA motifs, and existing experimental data to establish an AI model that is able to guide the construction of desired secondary structures. Experimental validation of the established AI model is also expected to be a part of this project.

We advance the understanding of dynamic processes to address global challenges, from mitigating the impacts of natural hazards and sustaining our habitat amid global change to responsibly managing georesources. We are part of the Helmholtz Association, the largest German scientific organisation. With around 1,200 employees as well as ca. 500 guest researchers, we contribute to the Helmholtz Research Field Earth and Environment, aligning cutting-edge research with societal relevance and international collaboration. Our work integrates multidisciplinary studies across Earth's system components, leveraging advanced technologies and infrastructure to research solutions and to transfer our knowledge to society. We are doing this according to our vision: “Taking the pulse of our Earth to safeguard a habitable planet”.
For section 4.6 Geomorphology (department “Geosystems”), we are looking for a:
We seek a highly motivated postdoctoral scholar to contribute to the development of the first central European hydroclimatic reconstruction of the penultimate interglacial complex and provide detailed insight on the duration, strength and sensitivity of this past warm state over this region in the DFG-funded project CONTINENTAL.
Periods of prolonged heat and dryness are expected to increase over central Europe due to anthropogenic warming. Past interglacial warm periods of the Quaternary provide unique analogues of environmental conditions during warm climate states without anthropogenic interference.
This project aims to provide a detailed and precisely dated paleoclimatic reconstruction of the MIS 8-7 transition and warm phases MIS 7a, MIS 7c, and MIS 7e of the penultimate interglacial complex using the partly varved paleo-maar sediments of the Neualbenreuth sediment core, recovered by an ICDP project. A combination of paleoclimatology, sedimentology, organic and inorganic geochemistry, will be used with existing palynological analyses, will allow us to examine hydroclimatic shifts and duration of these warm phases over central Europe.
The GFZ actively promotes diversity and explicitly welcomes applications from all qualified individuals, regardless of ethnic and social origin, nationality, gender, sexual orientation and identity, religion/belief, age and physical characteristics.

Diploma & Master Thesis
Your Job:
This thesis focuses on designing, evaluating, and deploying algorithms for robot perception and control. The main task is predicting both self-motion and the motion of surrounding agents to enable safe navigation, using the event camera as the primary sensor. The approach leverages prior information such as object detection, optical flow, and depth, while also integrating multimodal inputs including IMUs, radar, and standard cameras to ensure robust perception in complex environments.
Experiments are conducted using established outdoor benchmark datasets as well as a custom indoor dataset created for this work. Data is collected in a laboratory with a robotic platform equipped with state-of-the-art sensors.
The project evaluates SNNs, RNNs, and Transformers to exploit the temporal resolution of event cameras, with the goal of achieving accuracy, efficiency, and real-time performance on robotic platforms powered by edge-computing hardware. In addition, knowledge of Model Predictive Control (MPC) is considered valuable for integrating perception with control during deployment.

One major area of research in our department focuses on the immune system, a critical factor in health and disease, and how it changes with age. We explore how the age-related decline in immune function, known as ‘inflammaging’, is associated with neurodegeneration and other non-communicable diseases. Our ultimate aim is to contribute to the prevention of neurodegenerative and support healthy brain aging.
Our research is primarily based on the Rhineland Study, a prospective cohort study that emphasizes deep phenotyping. To study the role of the immune system in health and disease across the adult livespan, we included FACS analyses, immune stimulation assays and extensive cytokine profiling into our core protocols. We collaborate with partners at Bonn University in the Cluster of Excellence “ImmunoSensation2” and the Collaborative Research Center “Metaflammation”. Additional data include detailed structural and functional brain imaging, cognitive and neurological assessments, cardiovascular and anthropometric assessments, sensory systems tests, and medical history and medication use data. Available multi-omics data, both from baseline and follow-up, include (epi) genomic, transcriptomic, metabolomic, lipidomic, proteomic and microbiome data. The study currently includes over 12,500 individuals, with longitudinal data already available for nearly 5,000 of them. Additional baseline and follow-up data collection is ongoing.
In this context, the group of Prof. Dr. Breteler is looking for an ambitious and experienced researcher (m/f/x) in full time to join the department of Population Health Sciences at the German Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases (DZNE) in Bonn.
You will address questions related to immune diversity and brain health, primarily leveraging the rich data from the Rhineland Study and other large scale cohort studies. In addition to contributing to ongoing projects, you will develop your own research projects and profile. You will contribute to the management of the immunology pipelines, be involved in the supervision of PhD and master’s students, and actively participate in national and international collaborations.
Interested applicants should submit a cover letter, a CV, and transcripts in one single PDF file. The cover letter should describe your motivation to apply for this position and detail how your research interest and experience align with the research conducted in our group. Please highlight any relevant projects, publications, or collaborations. Note: We highly value authenticity in applications and discourage the use of AI-generated cover letters.

Job Description
The doctoral researcher will work in close collaboration between the Ocean Dynamics group (Prof. Stephan Juricke and Prof. Arne Biastoch) at GEOMAR and the Data Science group of Prof. Matthias Renz at the Faculty of Engineering at Kiel University. The goal is to contribute to a better understanding of oceanic processes on scales of a few kilometers using new computer science methods, particularly machine learning. This involves the analysis of very complex spatiotemporal phenomena, especially so-called submesoscale processes. These include eddies and fronts and play a crucial role in the mixing of water masses and their interaction with the atmosphere. The analysis will be based on data from high-resolution global ocean simulations with a particular focus on the Agulhas region off the southern tip of Africa. More specifically, the data used is from the NEMO ocean model and is generated in connection with the ERC project WHIRLS (https://www.whirls.eu). The doctoral researcher will work on new data mining methods to identify regions and processes of particular interest within these very large data sets. Furthermore, new deep learning algorithms (e.g., graph neural network (GNN) architectures) will be developed to explain the identified small-scale processes as accurately and efficiently as possible and to ultimately develop a surrogate model for simulations. This enables the representation of such processes even at significantly lower and less computationally time-intensive resolutions of the global ocean model. The doctoral researcher will thus not only be directly integrated into a larger, interdisciplinary, and team-oriented research unit at GEOMAR, but will also be co-supervised through the Institute of Computer Science at Kiel University. The doctoral researcher will also be closely integrated into the international network of the WHIRLS project.

We study the deep interior of the Earth – the lowermost mantle close to the core-mantle boundary. Due to the depth of more than 2.500 km and the ambient high temperature and density, many material properties are still only poorly known. We offer to contribute to the ongoing research in this fascinating region. Especially, we are looking for somebody to simulate seismic wave propagation in anisotropic media. The starting points are models based on seismic anisotropy measurements in the deep Earth and elastic properties of related anisotropic minerals. The calculated synthetic seismograms will be compared with and fitted to observed seismograms.
The research is embedded in the SPP DeepDyn (https://www.geo.lmu.de/deepdyn/en/) and thus there is an opportunity to work together with an interdisciplinary group and to attend meetings and conferences.

Digital methods for inverse materials design are essential to efficiently create new, sustainable and recycling-adapted structural metals. Alloys with a reduced number of elements, so-called lean alloys, and material systems with a high tolerance to impurities from the use of secondary raw materials are of particular relevance for improving recyclability and sustainability. Al-Ca is a promising lean alloy system for additive manufacturing, as the mechanical properties can be tailored through phase composition, distribution and morphology by tuning process parameters. The work is carried out within the DFG Priority Programme “DaMic - Data-driven Alloy and Microstructure Design of Sustainable Structural Metals” (SPP 2489), in close collaboration with a research partner responsible for the manufacturing and characterization of material samples.

Your Job:
The storage of renewable energy and electromobility are two of the major social challenges of our time. While today`s batteries already offer sufficiently high energy densities and safety for use in consumer electronics, research and development work is still needed for widespread application in other areas.
Future battery concepts such as Li or Na metal batteries offer a promising approach here. Replacing the flammable liquid electrolyte in conventional ion batteries with a non-flammable ceramic ion conductor not only increases safety. Due to their greater electrochemical stability range, they allow the use of metallic Li or Na as the anode. This can significantly increase the energy density of these batteries. In order to manufacture high-performance Na metal batteries, the compatibility between Na metal and ceramic separators must be increased.
As part of a master`s thesis, the interface between Na metal and the Na ion conductor Na2 Zr2 SiP2 O12 is to be optimized through the use of thin intermediate layers. The influence of these layers on the interfacial resistance and critical current density is to be investigated in symmetrical cells. Finally, the most promising intermediate layer will be integrated into full cells to determine its effect on performance and cycle stability. Electrochemical characterization will be performed using impedance spectroscopy, galvanostatic cycling, and cyclovoltammetry. Various scanning electron microscopes are available for characterizing the microstructure.

With cutting-edge research in the fields of ENERGY, HEALTH and MATTER, around 1,500 employees from more than 70 nations at Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR) are committed to mastering the great challenges facing society today.
The Institute of Resource Ecology performs research to protect humans and the environment from hazards caused by pollutants resulting from technical processes that produce energy and raw materials.
The Department of Structural Materials is looking for a PhD Student (f/m/d) in Ion Irradiation and Materials Characterization of Novel Additively Manufactured Materials for Fusion Applications. Recruitment is subject to final approval by the project sponsor.
Structural materials in future fusion reactors must withstand extreme conditions, especially high neutron fluxes. Existing materials only partially meet the associated requirements such as irradiation resistance, high-temperature strength, and low activation.
Within the scope of an interdisciplinary research project, the suitability of novel, consortium-developed and innovatively manufactured material candidates, particularly high-entropy alloys (HEAs), for use in fusion applications is investigated. To this end, ion irradiations with iron (Fe) and helium (He) ions are applied to experimentally emulate fusion-specific damage phenomena such as hardening, swelling, and embrittlement.
A particular focus is on developing methods to transfer ion-induced damage results to neutron-induced damage scenarios and accelerating material development cycles. The findings provide not only a scientifically sound assessment of the irradiation resistance of innovative materials but also directly feed into the consortium’s utilization plan involving industrial partners. The developed methods are also transferable to other material systems, thus laying the foundation for more efficient development processes in energy technology and related technological fields.
