Your Job:
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.

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.
Review of applications will begin immediately and continue until the position is filled.
For inquiries about the position, please contact Prof Dr Dr Monique Breteler at population-research@dzne.de
You will obtain special skills and knowledge for your scientific qualification during your activities at DZNE. The DZNE is an equal opportunity employer. It is committed to employing disabled individuals and especially encourages them to apply.

The group of Dr. Daniele Bano investigates molecular mechanisms underlying age-related neurodegenerative processes, with a focus on understanding how cellular and systemic metabolic dysfunctions contribute to neuronal vulnerability. Building on our previous published studies (https://www.dzne.de/en/research/research-areas/fundamental-research/research-groups/bano/publications/), our research program aims to identify genetic and epigenetic modifiers that influence disease onset and severity. In this regard, current and future projects are centered on metabolism (particularly mitochondrial bioenergetics) and explore how the exposome (environmental and lifestyle factors) can trigger neuronal stress and degeneration during aging. By integrating data across in vitro and in vivo models, we aim to uncover molecular mechanisms that can lead to novel avenues for interventions. Additional details about the different projects and career perspectives will be discussed during the interview.
The full time position is initially limited to two years, with the option of extension.
We are seeking applicants with:

The
Institute of Functional Epigenetics (IFE)
focuses on understanding the epigenetic mechanisms whereby cells and organisms integrate metabolic signals, establish cellular memory, and regulate plasticity. We use cutting-edge methods (multi-omics, single cell, live cell imaging, modelling, chromatin biochemistry as well as various developmental, stem cell and cell biology systems) to predict, observe, and manipulate epigenetic processes. The Schneider group is looking for a PhD candidate (f/m/x) to work on the interphase between epigenetics and cellular metabolism. The applicant should have experience in the fields of epigenetics and/or cellular metabolism and be motivated to develop and drive the project. The successful candidate will address central questions in epigenetics: what are the mechanisms how cellular metabolism impacts on epigenetic processes? How is chromatin controlled through cellular metabolism?
The successful candidate will implement a combination of in vitro and in vivo approaches, including different “omics” techniques, cellular editing and metabolic challenges. He/she will benefit from a vibrant scientific environment as well as the strong epigenetics, chromatin and metabolic health community at epigenetics@Helmholtz and in the Munich area.

The project represents the German contribution to the international AdriaArray initiative, a seismic array encompassing ~1500 seismic stations with 64 contributing institutions. Within this project, we are also operating a high-density seismic array (“Large-N array”) in western Greece and southern Albania encompassing nearly 800 sites, straddling the boundary between continental and oceanic subduction. This region carries the signature of a vibrant geodynamic history and shows different deformation styles in close vicinity.
The section for seismology at GFZ offers two PhD projects within this programme:
Project 1: Seismological imaging of attenuation and scattering in the circum-Adriatic region
We investigate the attenuation and scattering properties of the crust in the wider Adriatic region. You will employ scattering theory to separate the effects of wave scattering and anelastic attenuation on seismic wave propagation. You will use state-of-the-art inversion techniques to image the spatial distribution of subsurface heterogeneity to illuminate the imprint of past and present deformation.

Leveraging and improving state-of-the-art machine learning techniques, template matching and other techniques, you will derive a high precision catalogue of seismic activity down to very small magnitudes and analyse statistical patterns in order to understand how large-scale deformation is resolved onto faults in a region of diffuse deformation.

The Department of Positron Emission Tomography is looking for a PhD Student (f/m/d) to work on the Development and Evaluation of PET Image Reconstruction Methods for Simultaneous Clinical Dual-Tracer PET Imaging.
Positron emission tomography (PET) is a cornerstone of today’s cancer diagnosis, treatment planning, and response assessment. By administering specific radiotracers, PET enables the visualization and quantification of distinct physiological processes in the body. However, clinical PET imaging has so far been largely limited to imaging the distribution of a single radiotracer per scan. In collaboration with the Forschungszentrum Jülich, the PET department at HZDR has launched a joint research project to evaluate the potential of dual-tracer PET imaging. This innovative approach enables separation of two simultaneously acquired radiotracers, providing two distinct images from a single PET acquisition. Within this project, we will jointly develop, adapt and implement advanced image reconstruction algorithms in our in-house reconstruction software to evaluate the feasibility of dual-tracer imaging on clinical PET scanners – with the ultimate goal of translating this novel method towards clinical application.

Within Equip-G, the Finnish Geospatial Research Institute (FGI), the National Land Survey of Finland (NLS) and GFZ will perform three 3-month campaigns of quantum gravimetry in the geothermal field. In each campaign, the AQG will perform continuous measurements at the SG installation sites, providing (a) absolute gravity reference to correct the drift on the data from the SGs, as well as (b) time-series offering independent insight into the short-term (days to weeks) gravity changes induced by the redistributions of the geothermal masses.

The position is suitable for part-time employment.
01.03.2026
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 conducts applied basic research to protect humans and the environment from the effects of pollutants resulting from technical processes of energy and raw material extraction. An important goal is a better understanding of fundamental processes that influence the transport and the accumulation of radiotoxic elements in the geo- and biosphere including the food chain. This also includes research on microbial activity in potential repositories for highly radioactive waste.
The departments Radiation Research on Biological Systems and Surface Processes are looking for a PhD Student (f/m/d) for experimental research on the impact of microbial activity on the immobilisation of plutonium in the nearfield of a nuclear waste disposalsubject to pending project approval.
The long-term safety of a deep geological repository of high-level radioactive waste requires a detailed understanding of the interactions of radionuclides and geotechnical barriers. Carbonate minerals such as siderite (FeCO3) play a central role in clay formations and as secondary phases on corroded waste containers. Iron-reducing bacteria can also form this mineral. Plutonium, one of the most relevant transuranium elements, has a complex redox chemistry. Especially the interaction of Pu(III) and Pu(IV) with carbonate minerals and the influence of microbial activity on retention processes are still poorly understood.
The PhD thesis is part of the joint project TRANSFER, which is jointly funded by the Federal Ministry for Research, Technology and Space (BMFTR) and the Federal Company for Radioactive Waste Disposal (BGE). The consortium brings together five Helmholtz Centres and five universities, and is coordinated by the GFZ German Research Centre for Geosciences.

PHD Thesis
13.11.2025
DESY
The PhD position, based at DESY (Hamburg, Germany), will be funded by the ERC Starting Grant SoftMeter and will focus on the establishment of soft-field laser spectroscopy of molecules. The “soft-field” scheme combines ultrashort ultraviolet pulses and few-cycle infrared pulses to replace the conventional strong-field photo-interactions. By using such a two-color scheme, we aim to trigger a new regime of high-harmonic generation and laser-induced electron diffraction. In particular, we aim to translate the seminal concepts of strong-field physics towards the weak-field regime for the first time. This achievement would open up the possibility of performing ultrafast imaging of complex systems such as large molecules or interfaces with unprecedented spatiotemporal resolution.The PhD project will be pursued within the group led by Andrea Trabattoni and it will be embedded in the FS-ATTO group, which is one of the worldwide leading groups for the investigation of ultrafast photo-induced electron dynamics in matter. The activity will focus on the development of cutting-edge pump-probe laser schemes for the investigation of new regimes of ultrafast processes in molecules. A deep understanding of such phenomena is likely to have a significant impact across a wide range of disciplines. For example, in the future, our research may improve the energy-harvesting mechanism in molecular solar cells, with immense benefits for energy and environmental science.

Within Phenorob, we develop novel agrogeophysical methods to obtain noninvasive subsoil information that can be used to advance root phenotyping and soil functions. Soil-root interactions will be analyzed across management scenarios using geophysics and numerical modeling. High-resolution subsoil characterization using electromagnetic induction (EMI), and ground penetrating radar (GPR) will be combined with soil sensors systems and UAVs at different scales. In particular, we will combine borehole and surface GPR as well as small-scale EMI measurements with root and shoot observations in controlled experiments (rhizotron facility) and field trials. In addition to field applications, novel inversion algorithms for ground-penetrating radar (GPR) and electromagnetic (EM) will be developed. These algorithms will enable high-resolution, quantitative time-lapse soil property measurements using high-performance, parallel computing. Together with our existing rich dataset, we will inform a soil-plant digital twin, enabling ML-based analysis of geophysical and rover approaches for field-scale root and soil characterization.

PHD Thesis
Your Job:
This research primarily seeks to incorporate advanced neuron models, such as those capturing dendritic computation and probabilistic Bayesian network behavior, into unconventional computing architectures, replacing conventional structureless and deterministic LIF point-neuron models. This is pursued through circuit designs that exploit and control memristor dynamics (e.g., local activity and stochasticity). For example, localized dendritic activation underlies numerous computational functions across hierarchical levels, such as denoising (filtering), increased expressivity (tunable local activation), multi-timescale adaptation (local memory), and stimulus-specific adaptation (multi-task processing). While the co-optimization of dendrite-inspired functional circuits with emerging memory devices has only recently been explored, this doctoral project aims to advance that frontier.
Initially, the research will explore CMOS–memristor hybrid implementations, leveraging their analog tunability and high-order dynamics to realize dendrite-inspired functional circuits. These circuits will subsequently be integrated as core computational modules within unconventional computing architectures, enabling algorithm–circuit co-optimization across the computing pipeline with respect to key metrics such as power consumption, computational delay, and area efficiency. Beyond circuit prototyping, the project will conduct task-level benchmarking to evaluate overall system performance in relation to both dendrite–neurosynaptic functionalities and the intrinsic characteristics of memristive devices.

We are looking for you to join us full-time for a position that is initially limited to two years, with the option for extension.
The position will be based at the DZNE Ulm site, which studies the underlying mechanisms of disease causation with a particular focus on amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and Parkinson’s disease. Using next-generation sequencing, we have identified Mendelian disease genes that cause autosomal-dominantly inherited ALS. We have developed innovative disease models based on these findings (e.g. Freischmidt et al., Nat Neurosci, 2015, Brenner et al., Brain, 2018; Brenner et al., J Exp Med, 2024). We will bring these analyses to the next level by studying the contribution of somatic (mosaic) mutations that may occur during development or aging to ALS. To this end, we are offering a PhD position to employ targeted deep sequencing or single cell-resolved detection of mosaic mutations with low allele frequency in human post-mortem tissue to gain further insights into the role of genetic mosaics in neurodegeneration. Another aim of this project will be the development of in vitro-models for somatic mutations for functional studies, or the development of diagnostic approaches for ante-mortem detection of, and potential testing of therapeutic interventions against, somatic mutations in neurodegenerative diseases such as ALS.
We are looking for highly motivated candidates who are open-minded, creative team-player, enthusiastic, have strong analytical skills, think critically, and with good social skills.
The successful candidate will be assisting to coordinate and direct the project. Therefore, excellent communication skills and team working skills are mandatory.
Review of applications will begin immediately and continue until the position is filled .

Within the research group CLEAR, we endeavour to understand large-scale geological processes that operate deep inside planets. Our approach is to recreate high-pressure-temperature conditions in the laboratory and examine various physical properties of geomaterials (minerals, rocks, glasses, and melts) in situ using state-of-the-art spectroscopic techniques. We then use these properties in collaboration with geodynamicists to create numerical models of planets.
We are looking for a highly motivated individual who would want to be part of a five-year research program to quantify the density of silicate glasses and melts at high-pressure conditions. The primary research focus will be on measuring the thermoelastic response (e.g., the thermal expansion coefficient) of silicate glasses and melts in the resistive- and laser-heated diamond anvil cell using supercontinuum-based interferometry and other optical techniques. The resulting data will quantify the effect of temperature on the volume of multicomponent silicate glasses across the pressure range of the Earth’s mantle, and contribute to the foundation of the universal silicate melt density model.
The successful candidate will further develop the all-optical method for density measurements in the diamond anvil cell, and collaborate with the existing group members as well as with Prof. Dr. Bjoern Winkler (Goethe University Frankfurt), Dr. Ilya Veksler (GFZ), and Dr. Sergio Speziale (GFZ) to gain deep insights into the composition-structure-property relation in the silicate glass system.
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. We also promote an inclusive working environment in which everyone can fully develop their own talents. Anyone who has been recognised as severely disabled, will be given preferential consideration in the event of equal suitability and qualification in accordance with the provisions of the German Social Code IX. In case of further queries regarding gender equality, please do not hesitate to contact our Equal Opportunities Officer.
“Diversity in perspectives” is one of GFZ's core values. As an integral part of supporting diversity at our centre, we actively promote women in science and in leadership positions. We among others do this through our gender equality plan and the cascade model measures which we actively implement to enable sustainable equal opportunities in academic career paths. The GFZ thus committedly strives for gender equality in science, including in leadership positions, and strongly encourages women to apply.

DESY-Zeuthen
The Photo lnjector Test Facility PITZ in Zeuthen (near Berlin) is one of the leading international groups in developments on modern photo injectors and their applications. Current R&D goals of PITZ include improving electron source brightness beyond state of the art for X-ray Free Electron Lasers as well as applications of high brightness beams e.g. for FLASH radiation therapy R&D (FLASHlab@PITZ).FLASH radiation therapy (FLASH RT) involves treatments delivered at ultra-high dose rates, and is a new and exciting opportunity for cancer treatment. The PITZ accelerator is the perfect test facility for this new technique as it is extremely flexible in the timing of the irradiation bunches and the corresponding dose rates and can deliver full treatment doses within a 1 ms bunch train. The detectors and methods established for dosimetry of conventional radiotherapy are not suitable for FLASH RT. The student will develop suitable detection and dosimetry methods at ultra-high dose rates, making use of the detector expertise developed for particle, astroparticle and accelerator physics applications at DESY Zeuthen in cooperation with national and international partners.

Project: Computational tool development for longitudinal metagenomic data
The human microbiome, a complex community of microorganisms colonizing the human host, has been recognized as an important determinant for health and disease. Both the composition and the genetic makeup of this community are not static: horizontal gene transfer, for example, can distribute antibiotic resistance or virulence factors across different bacterial species. The Precision Microbial Genomics (PMIG) group is interested in developing computational tools and analysis approaches to gain a deeper understanding of microbial genome variation over time.

The Potsdam Memorandum of 2007 called on science and society to tap into all sources of ingenuity and cooperation in an effort to tackle the great planetary challenges of our time. The arts are among these sources: They can provide insights beyond the scope of scientific analysis and policy development, challenge our views and open new avenues to work together towards alternative futures, while fostering dialogue across cultures, ontologies, and territories.
The DAAD Artists-in-Berlin Program, the City of Potsdam, and the Research Institute for Sustainability (RIFS) at GFZ are issuing a joint call for applications for international artists who wish to develop work that explores the intersection between art and sustainability during a fellowship in Potsdam, Germany. The programme seeks to foster exchange between the arts, academia, politics, and civil society. We encourage the participation of artists with critical voices and perspectives that are absent in German and Western European discussions on sustainability.
We especially welcome applications from candidates whose interests dovetail with our research activities in the areas of: air quality, climate change, consumption, democracy, digitalisation, energy, just transition, mindsets, mobility, rights of nature, risks and hazards, citizen engagement, and/or sustainability challenges faced in the Arctic, European cities and regions (e.g., Brandenburg/Berlin), Latin America (particularly the Amazon region), Southern (in particular the Himalaya region) and Eastern Asia, or the Oceans.
The successful applicant will join the RIFS Fellow Programme, which frequently hosts artists as well as scientists and practitioners from business and civil society. The fellowship spans a period of at least four and ideally up to six months, starting in mid-2026. Fellows will receive a monthly stipend of 2,500 Euro, plus a lump sum for travel expenses (return journey to Potsdam from your current country of residence), and up to 5,000 Euros for housing support. In addition, we provide support on various legal requirements such as visa applications.

GFZ is Germany's national centre for solid Earth research. 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 4.5 Subsurface Process Modelling (department “Geosystems”), we are looking for a:SOLVE sub-project HYDROCONNECT
This position is part of the project “Securing Terrestrial Water Cycles: the Helmholtz SOlution Lab Elbe RiVEr Basin (SOLVE)”, funded by the Helmholtz Association. SOLVE brings together expertise from seven Helmholtz Centres and 10 stakeholder institutions to develop a science-based decision framework for the Elbe River catchment. The overarching goal is to identify and optimise water management practices that preserve or restore hydrological and biological connectivity.
We are looking for a candidate working on investigating the hydrological/hydrogeological connectivity in the Elbe River basin to assess groundwater resilience under climatic and water management scenarios. Activities will rely on coupled hydrological and groundwater modelling combined with machine learning techniques to quantify groundwater recharge and resilience to climate variability, predict possible developments under future climate change and thus providing guidance for its sustainable management. The student will closely interact with other partners in SOLVE, and in particular in the sub-project HYDROCONNECT, where soil moisture connectivity and its relationship with streamflow will be quantified using satellite data, and gravity-based terrestrial water storage observations will be integrated with isotopic tracer methods and geophysical monitoring.

Scientific computing contributes significantly to the CO2 footprint created by research conducted in ErUM (Exploration of Universe and Matter). In order to advance the environmental sustainability in this area the SUSFECIT (Sustainable Federated Compute Infrastructures) research network has been proposed with the goal to contribute to developing a strategy and interlinked software ecosystems to reduce the CO2 footprint and to increase the energy efficiency of distributed computing resources. The basic idea is to exploit the dispatchability of compute jobs in space and time and use the partition of a federated computing infrastructure at a place, which at a certain time, is (dominantly) powered by renewable energies such as from wind turbines and solar power plants.Together with project partners and stakeholders from a larger collaboration, the successful candidate will investigate, analyse and design energy and compute load profiles together with the scientific partners of the ErUM community. Additionally, development and testing of a digital twin (simulation) including the integration of additional research data centers of the partners and usage in a Germany-wide federated computing model needs to be done. In this context forecasting models need to be integrated and optimized for usage in this interlinked ecosystem. This should result in drafting of an implementation plan with local users and ErUM partners. Finally tutorials for the creation of awareness and education of scientists need to be created.

GFZ is Germany's national centre for solid Earth research. 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 4.4 Hydrology (department “Geosystems”), we are looking for a:Helmholtz Solution Lab Rur Erft (SLRE)
In the frame of the Helmholtz "Water Safety and Security" campaign, the Solution Lab Rur Erft (SLRE) aims to develop solutions, engineering and nature-based, for coping with water extremes – both droughts and floods in the Rur and Erft basins. Thus, in the context of too much water, but often not enough, identifying solutions in front of the background of multiple sources of uncertainty represents a key challenge for future water safety and security, as well as climate change adaptation. The SLRE approach is based on developing digital twins used to simulate storylines and explore solution spaces in an interactive solution room, in close collaboration with partners at other Helmholtz Centres and regional stakeholders, through a co-design and transfer-by-design approach.
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. We also promote an inclusive working environment in which everyone can fully develop their own talents. Anyone who has been recognised as severely disabled, will be given preferential consideration in the event of equal suitability and qualification in accordance with the provisions of the German Social Code IX. In case of further queries regarding gender equality, please do not hesitate to contact our Equal Opportunities Officer.
“Diversity in perspectives” is one of GFZ's core values. As an integral part of supporting diversity at our centre, we actively promote women in science and in leadership positions. We among others do this through our gender equality plan and the cascade model measures which we actively implement to enable sustainable equal opportunities in academic career paths. The GFZ thus committedly strives for gender equality in science, including in leadership positions, and strongly encourages women to apply.

]]>PHD Thesis
Your Job:
Aerosol particles act as ice nucleating particles, providing surface for water vapour to deposit and freeze into ice particles. Formation of cirrus clouds and subsequent sedimentation of ice crystals can dehydrate air in the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere (UTLS) region, thereby influencing the water vapor budget of this region. Aerosols and cirrus are important to the global climate because they interact with radiation from the sun and from the earth. However, the aerosol-cirrus interaction in the UTLS is not well understood because of lacking sufficient in situ data. In addition, the dynamics and transport processes across the UTLS adds complexity to unveil the role of UTLS aerosols in cirrus formation and the life cycle of cirrus. Therefore, it is crucial to measure aerosol composition and properties together with cirrus occurrences in the UTLS for achieving a better understanding of the link between aerosols and cirrus clouds in the UTLS, for which Lagrangian modelling is a valuable tool to revealing the source of UTLS aerosols, the origin of water masses, and formation processes of cirrus particles.

Das GFZ ist das nationale Zentrum für die Erforschung der festen Erde in Deutschland. Wir fördern das Verständnis dynamischer Prozesse zur Bewältigung globaler Herausforderungen - von der Milderung der Auswirkungen von Naturgefahren über die Bewahrung unserer Umwelt in Zeiten des globalen Wandels bis hin zum verantwortungsvollen Umgang mit natürlichen Ressourcen. Wir sind Mitglied der Helmholtz-Gemeinschaft, der größten deutschen Wissenschaftsorganisation. Mit rund 1.200 Beschäftigten sowie ca. 500 Gästen tragen wir zum Helmholtz-Forschungsbereich Erde und Umwelt bei und verbinden Spitzenforschung mit gesellschaftlicher Relevanz und internationaler Zusammenarbeit. Unsere Arbeit integriert multidisziplinäre Studien über die Systeme der Erde und nutzt fortschrittliche Technologien und Infrastrukturen, um Lösungen zu erforschen und unser Wissen in die Gesellschaft zu tragen. Wir tun dies im Einklang mit unserer Vision: „Am Puls der Erde, um sie als lebensfreundlichen Planeten zu erhalten“.
In der Sektion 2.2 Geophysikalische Abbildung des Untergrunds (Department „Geophysik“) ist die folgende Stelle zu besetzen:Im Verbundprojekt ConvEx sollen integrierte Explorationsmethoden zur räumlichen Abbildung hydrothermaler Konvektion für die tiefengeothermische Erschließung entwickelt werden. Im Teilvorhaben „Elektromagnetische Exploration für geothermische Aufsuchungsfelder” werden Explorationskampagnen mit den Methoden der Controlled Source Elektromagnetik (CSEM) und Magnetotellurik (MT) zur Detektion von Kontrasten der elektrischen Leitfähigkeit in Reservoirtiefe durchgeführt.
Die Wirtschaftlichkeit hydrothermaler Geoenergieprojekte hängt in erster Linie von der Temperatur und der Fließrate am Bohrlochkopf ab. Hochpermeable und hydraulisch aktive Zonen mit hohen Temperaturgradienten sind ideale geothermische Reservoirs. Mithilfe elektromagnetischer Verfahren können Volumenelemente erhöhter Permeabilität identifiziert werden, da die elektrische Leitfähigkeit von Gesteinen maßgeblich von der elektrolytischen Leitfähigkeit der Fluide im Porenraum sowie von dessen durchflusswirksamer Porosität abhängt.
Im Rahmen des Verbundvorhabens werden die Ergebnisse der EM-Verfahren mit anderen geophysikalischen und petrophysikalischen Daten sowie mit Messungen der geothermischen Gradienten kombiniert. Darüber hinaus werden gekoppelte thermisch-hydraulisch-mechanische numerische Simulationen durchgeführt.

Your Job:
The work will examine global supply chains for wind turbines, particularly offshore, or for microchip and semiconductor technologies, to identify bottlenecks, dependencies, and transformation paths. Based on a systematic literature review and trade data analysis, the first step will be to select the technologies to be considered (e.g., generator- and permanent magnet-based). A material flow-based database for the supply chain will then be established for these technologies, which will provide a basis for analyzing dependencies and the demand for (critical) raw materials. Specifically, you will work on the following tasks:
The project offers the opportunity to deal intensively with the renewable energy value chain and to work out connections to critical raw materials. The project is supervised by the Chair of Energy Economics at TU Dresden in cooperation with the Resource Strategies Department of Jülich System Analysis at Forschungszentrum Jülich.

]]>PHD Thesis
Your Job:
Remote sensing data from satellites are an extremely valuable information source to improve air quality predictions. They monitor aerosol and trace gases often with global coverage, which is far beyond in-situ observational networks. However, the accuracy of satellite retrievals depends on several assumptions leading to biased observations.
The PhD project will be conducted in the atmospheric modeling group of the Institute of Climate and Energy Systems (ICE-3) at Forschungszentrum Jülich and the Meteorological Institute at the University of Cologne. At ICE-3 detailed investigations of the emission of atmospheric constituents are performed using the 4-dimensional variational (4D-var) data assimilation method implemented into the EURAD-IM. In atmospheric chemistry modeling, the 4D-var method is a powerful tool to assess the state of the atmosphere and the corresponding emissions that are in compliance with observations. The AWARES group at the University of Cologne provides extensive expertise in remote sensing and radiative effects in the atmosphere. To include the observations in the assimilation procedure, so called observation operators, mapping the model state to the observation space, are essential.
The innovative application of machine learning to exploit satellite data within numerical modelling links to other scientific applications beyond those of the atmosphere. The project builds on strong cooperation between ICE-3, the University of Cologne and other partners within and outside Forschungszentrum Jülich, which provides an ideal fundament to combine competences across different disciplines (meteorology, environmental science, high performance computing, software development and data science).

To understand the effects of microbiota on the host, we use an interdisciplinary mix of sequencing-driven, microbiological, and immunological approaches on gnotobiotic mouse models and patient cohorts (e.g., El Mouali et al., Cell Host Microbe, 2024; Osbelt et al., Nature Microbiology, 2024; Osbelt et al., Cell Host & Microbe, 2021).
In order to strengthen our team for a Helmholtz Biomedical Engineering-funded research project, we are seeking highly motivated candidates who are interested in contributing to the development of innovative microfluidic systems for studying microbial communities (e.g., those found in the human gut). The successful candidate will work in an interdisciplinary team across three Helmholtz centres, each with complementary expertise in microfluidics technologies, imaging, AI-supported image analysis and innovative reporter systems. The scientist will set up a microfluidics-based imaging system at HZI, perform experiments in prototype systems, and provide critical feedback to collaborating engineers to optimise the system. The ultimate aim of the system is to provide critical insights into microbial ecology that can be translated into novel types of microbiome-centric medicines.
