Postdoctoral Researcher – Computational Electron Microscopy and Machine Learning

Area of research:Scientific / postdoctoral posts Job description:<h1>Postdoctoral Researcher – Computational Electron Microscopy and Machine Learning</h1>The multidisciplinaryInstitute for Advanced Simulation - Materials Data Science and Informatics (IAS-9)brings together disciplines ranging from data analysis and machine learning to materials simulation, research data management and software development under one roof. In doing so, we extract new information from simulations and experiments, identify patterns and trends in microscopy data, and improve our understanding of why materials and processes work the way they do. We benefit from a strong connection to the Ernst Ruska-Centre for Microscopy and Spectroscopy with Electrons (ER-C)and to the Jülich Supercomputing Centre. Within IAS-9, the Deep Learning for Electron Microscopy group develops machine learning methods grounded in the physics of the measurement rather than in generic image statistics. We are looking for a postdoctoral researcher whose scientific home is electron microscopy itself and who wants to develop the computational methods the field now needs: identifying where microscopy questions genuinely require new methods, developing them, and validating them against real experimental data.<h2>Your Job</h2>This position sits at the interface between electron microscopy and machine learning. We are looking for a microscopist or physicist with substantial computational practice who wants to shape how machine learning is developed for electron microscopy – someone who can identify the open questions in the domain and carry them through to new methods.

PhD Position - DNA-based Liquid Crystal Elastomers - Towards an artificial cytosceleton

Area of research:PHD Thesis Job description:<h1>PhD Position - DNA-based Liquid Crystal Elastomers - Towards an artificial cytosceleton</h1>Join us in exploring how the principles of soft matter and biomolecular self-organization can inspire the next generation of functional materials. Our research at theInstitute of Biological Information Processing - Biomacromolecular Systems and Processes (IBI-4)combines physics, chemistry, and biology to understand the collective behaviour of biomacromolecules and to develop innovative liquid crystal elastomers with programmable mechanical properties. In this project, you will contribute to the fabrication and characterization of novel microscale liquid crystal elastomers using advanced microfluidic techniques and state-of-the-art microscopy and rheology. Your work will help uncover how rational design governs mechanical function, providing new insights for responsive materials with applications ranging from bioinspired actuators to model systems for cellular mechanics.<h2>Your Job</h2>As part of this project, you will fabricate and characterize novel microscale liquid crystal elastomers (micro-LCEs) based on charged microgels with tailored polymer network architectures.

PhD position in the research project MIA (d/m/x/f)

Area of research:PHD Thesis Part-Time Suitability:The position is suitable for part-time employment. Job description:PhD position in the research project MIA (d/m/x/f) Background For the newly starting Helmholtz Investigator Group "Million-year Ice from Antarctica and the 'Stagnant' Ice Zone: From Microstructure to Geochemistry (MIA:Mic2Geo)", we seek a highly motivated PhD candidate to investigate the microstructural properties of the deepest part of the European ice core Beyond EPICA Little Dome C (BELDC) dating back at least 1.2 million years. The research project MIA will unite the international flagship projects Beyond EPICA Oldest Ice (BEOI), Million Year Ice Core (MYI), and NSF Center for Oldest Ice Exploration (COLDEX), allowing to analyse three novel Antarctic ice cores with the focus on the uncharacterised zone of assumedly “stagnant" ice in BELDC. By systematically examining the ice crystal structure and the distribution of chemical impurities, MIA will gain insights into the possibility of climate signal preservation and ice deformation in BEOI's bottom zone. Thus, MIA will contribute to the forefront of polar and climate research by improving our understanding of the Antarctic climate system and bridging structural glaciology and geochemical analysis across spatial and temporal scales. The position will be based at AWI Bremerhaven, laying the foundation for a 5-year-long Young Investigator Group, which is aimed at growing to a group size of at least 6 people, excluding temporary B.Sc. and M.Sc. students.

Postdoc - Systems Neuroscience / Computational Neurology

Area of research:Scientific / postdoctoral posts Job description:<h1>Postdoc - Systems Neuroscience / Computational Neurology</h1>Researchers at the Institute of Neuroscience and Medicine - Cognitive Neuroscience (INM-3; headed by Prof. Gereon Fink) – at the Forschungszentrum Jülich investigate the neural mechanisms underlying cognitive (dys-)function in healthy subjects and patients suffering from neurological and psychiatric disorders. Functional imaging (PET, MRI) and electrophysiological methods (EEG, TMS, tDCS) are combined with computational approaches.<h2>Your Job</h2>The successful candidate will investigate how neural information processing within the human motor system is impaired by (non-)pathological aging under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Silvia Daun.Compared with sensory, cognitive, or affective-emotional systems, the motor system’s output is directly quantifiable and comparable across species. When studying the neural mechanisms underlying motor control, behavioral readouts across species offer the potential to overcome one grand challenge in neuroscience: bridging the gap between molecular, cellular, and systems levels.Importantly, the motor system is affected in many, if not all, neurological and psychiatric disorders. Hence, a more comprehensive understanding of the motor system will further our understanding of the neural mechanisms underlying neurological and psychiatric disorders. Likewise, neuropsychiatric diseases allow novel insights into the motor system’s (dys-)function and testing models of motor control.The successful candidate will be part of acollaborative research center(CRC1451), located at the University of Cologne, that brings together neuroscientists investigating genetic factors, cellular and synaptic as well as systems/neural network processes underlying motor control in animals and humans, in both health and neuropsychiatric diseases.

Several PhD Positions - Co-Design for In-hardware Learning, Associative Memories and Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks

Area of research:PHD Thesis Job description:<h1>Several PhD Positions - Co-Design for In-hardware Learning, Associative Memories and Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks</h1>We are seeking highly motivated PhD candidates to join our research team and work at the intersection of brain-inspired computing, novel circuits and architectures, and machine learning.The Peter Grünberg Institute - Neuromorphic Compute Nodes (PGI-14)conducts research across several areas with the goal of closing the gap between the computational abilities of modern computers and those of the brain, especially in terms of energy efficiency. We develop novel computing capabilities by incorporating some of the remarkable features found in biological brains. We aim to lower the energy consumption of today’s hardware while expanding our understanding of the fundamentals of computation. Practical application areas include AI and Machine learning, intractable NP-hard problems, scientific computing, and signal processing.<h2>Your Job</h2>Several positions are available in distinct project areas:<ul><li>1) Associative memory based computing: This project will utilize concepts including Dense Associative Memories and Modern Hopfield Networks to both a) physically realize such systems in electronics, particularly using novel content-addressable memory (CAM) designs, including tape-out opportunities, and b) exploring computing applications and algorithms that can leverage associative memories, including machine learning and LLMs, genomics, and classical data science methods (tree models, decision trees, finite automata). We will test these applications experimentally in taped-out IC chips.</li><li>2) Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks (KAN) as a promising complement to conventional neural networks.

The focus of the PhD project will be the development of a physics-guided digital twin framework for magnesium alloys by integrating experimental characterization, crystal plasticity, phase-field modeling, precipitation modeling, and machine learning approaches to establish quantitative composition-process-structure-property relationships. Building upon recently developed machine-learning approaches for structure-property prediction in extruded magnesium alloys, the project aims to advance toward a next-generation Integrated Computational Materials Engineering (ICME) framework capable of predicting microstructure evolution and resulting mechanical properties across previously unseen processing conditions and material states. The candidate will work closely with interdisciplinary teams combining expertise in magnesium alloy development, thermomechanical processing, crystal plasticity, phase-field modeling, machine learning, and advanced experimental characterization.

PhD Position – Linking Above-Ground Plant Function to Root Dynamics

Area of research:PHD Thesis Job description:<h1>PhD Position – Linking Above-Ground Plant Function to Root Dynamics</h1>Plant roots are essential for water and nutrient acquisition and play a key role in how crops respond to environmental stress. Yet, because roots are hidden in the soil, their development and activity remain difficult to observe – particularly under field conditions.Advances in plant phenotyping, on the other hand, allow us to characterize above- and belowground plant structure and function with increasing temporal resolution. Physiological measurements provide information about photosynthetic carbon assimilation, while sensor-based phenotyping captures dynamic changes in plant growth and stress responses.To what extent can available above-ground traits be related to root structure and function?At the Institute of Bio- and Geosciences – Plant Sciences (IBG-2) at Forschungszentrum Jülich, we are looking for a doctoral researcher to address this question within the PhenoRob – Robotics and Phenotyping for Sustainable Crop Production – research environment.<h2>Your Job</h2>The aim of your PhD project is to relate root dynamics to above-ground physiological and phenotypical measures and traits.You will investigate how photosynthesis, carbon allocation, shoot development and root growth are connected over time and how these relationships change in response to environmental conditions. To achieve this, you will combine experiments done under controlled conditions with field experiments.Complementary experiments will provide direct and non-invasive information about shoot and root structure and function. Using advanced imaging approaches such as Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Positron Emission Tomography (PET), you will follow root development and physiological processes over space and time. Together with measurements of photosynthetic performance, these experiments will help reveal how carbon assimilation and allocation are related to source-sink dynamics and subsequent root and shoot growth.By combining these complementary datasets, you will investigate whether measurable changes above ground can serve as indicators – and ultimately predictors – of dynamic processes in the hidden root system.Your tasks will include:<ul><li>Design and conduct plant experiments under controlled and field conditions</li><li>Quantify temporal changes in plant structure and function using non-invasive approaches</li><li>Investigate relationships between photosynthetic carbon assimilation, carbon allocation, and subsequent root and shoot growth</li><li>Develop quantitative approaches to relate root development and stress responses to above-ground measurements</li><li>Contribute experimental data to the parameterisation and validation of functional-structural plant models</li><li>Present your results at international conferences and publish them in peer-reviewed scientific journals</li></ul>The project will be highly collaborative and will connect expertise in plant physiology, root biology, phenotyping, sensing, imaging, data analysis and plant modelling within IBG-2 and the interdisciplinary PhenoRob research environment.<h2>Your Profile</h2>We are looking for a highly motivated candidate who combines scientific curiosity with an interest in experimental and quantitative plant science.<ul><li>Excellent Master's degree in plant sciences, biology, agricultural sciences, crop science, environmental sciences, bioengineering or a related discipline</li><li>Motivation to combine controlled experiments with field-based plant research</li><li>Interest in linking physiological processes with imaging and sensor-derived plant traits</li><li>Experience in quantitative data analysis and statistics</li><li>Experience with R, Python or comparable tools is advantageous</li><li>Very good command of written and spoken English is required (at least B2 level according to the CEFR</li></ul>), ideally supported by a certificate confirming the language levelExperience with photosynthesis measurements, root phenotyping, plant imaging, MRI, PET, field phenotyping, remote sensing, image analysis, machine learning or plant modelling is an advantage, but not a prerequisite.<h2>Our Benefits for You</h2><ul><li>Team & Environment: You will work in a motivated team with an international and interdisciplinary focus – at one of the largest research institutions in Europe</li><li>Research & Infrastructure: You will have access to excellent scientific and technical facilities for your work</li><li>Networking & Exchange: You will participate in (international) conferences and project meetings and actively build your scientific network</li><li>Supervision & Support: We will accompany your doctoral studies with continuous, expert guidance from your academic supervisor</li><li>Work-life balance: We offer flexible working hours to help you balance your professional and personal life.

PhD Researcher (f/m/x) - Laminar 7T fMRI of Medial Temporal Lobe Hyperactivity in Aging and Alzheimer’s Disease 1578/2026/10

Area of research:PHD Thesis Job description:The Multimodal Neuroimaging Group at DZNE Magdeburg is looking for a highly motivated PhD student who is excited about cutting-edge neuroimaging at 7 Tesla, the neural circuits underlying memory, and how these are altered in aging and Alzheimer’s disease. The project is jointly led by Anne Maass (Magdeburg) and Nikolai Axmacher (Ruhr University Bochum). This PhD position is part of the DFG Research Unit FOR 6027 “Layers of Memory” (subproject P06), a multidisciplinary consortium bringing together expertise in cognitive and clinical neuroscience, ultra-high-field imaging, MR physics, and human memory research across several sites in Germany, Austria, and the Netherlands. The overarching goal of project “P06” is to understand the laminar and circuit mechanisms underlying hippocampal hyperactivity in aging and early Alzheimer’s disease.<ul><li>Acquiring and analyzing ultra-high-resolution 7T structural and functional MRI data </li><li>Investigating layer- and subfield-specific activity within the entorhinal–hippocampal circuit, including the entorhinal cortex and hippocampal subfields such as dentate gyrus, CA3, and CA1 </li><li>Analyzing fMRI data acquired during mnemonic pattern separation and spatial navigation tasks</li><li>Characterizing structural and functional connectivity within the medial temporal lobe using resting-state fMRI and diffusion MRI </li><li>Relating imaging measures to memory performance and Alzheimer’s disease plasma biomarkers, including Aβ42/40 and p-tau217 </li><li>Collaborating closely with researchers in Bochum and across the interdisciplinary FOR 6027 Layers of Memory consortium </li><li>Preparing scientific manuscripts and presenting your work at national and international conferences</li></ul><ul><li>Master’s degree in psychology, neuroscience, cognitive science, biomedical sciences, or a related field </li><li>Strong interest in human memory, aging, Alzheimer’s disease, and neuroimaging </li><li>Strong quantitative, statistical, and programming skills, ideally in Python, R and/or MATLAB </li><li>Experience with human imaging data, such as fMRI, is an advantage </li><li>Interest in medial temporal lobe anatomy, hippocampal subfields, cortical layers, and brain connectivity </li><li>Motivation to work with complex multimodal and high-resolution neuroimaging data </li><li>Ability to work both independently and collaboratively within a multidisciplinary and multi-site research environment </li><li>Good communication skills and teamworking skills </li><li>Fluency in written and spoken English; knowledge of German is helpful but not required.</li></ul> <h3>Your role in cutting-edge research </h3>Why does the hippocampus become hyperactive during aging and in the earliest stages of Alzheimer’s disease? The medial temporal lobe is among the first brain systems affected by Alzheimer’s disease. Tau pathology emerges early in specific layers of the entorhinal cortex, while abnormal increases in hippocampal activity have been observed during aging and in individuals at risk for Alzheimer’s disease (Corriveau-Lecavalier et al. 2024). Yet the circuit mechanisms underlying this “hyperactivity” remain poorly understood. This PhD project will investigate these mechanisms at the level of individual cortical layers and hippocampal subfields using ultra-high-resolution 7 Tesla MRI. By combining task-based fMRI during mnemonic discrimination and spatial navigation with resting-state connectivity and diffusion imaging, we aim to characterize how activity, connectivity, and microstructure within the entorhinal–hippocampal circuit change across normal aging and early stages of Alzheimer’s disease. A central hypothesis is that aging and early Alzheimer’s pathology disturb the balance of information flow through medial temporal lobe circuits. Reduced input from superficial entorhinal layers together with increased recurrent activity within hippocampal circuits, particularly CA3, may shift memory processing away from pattern separation toward pattern completion, contributing to memory impairment. The project will study four deeply characterized groups: young adults, cognitively unimpaired older adults without evidence of Alzheimer’s pathology, biomarker-positive cognitively unimpaired older adults, and biomarker-positive individuals with mild cognitive impairment. This design provides a unique opportunity to distinguish mechanisms of normal aging from those associated with preclinical and early symptomatic Alzheimer’s disease. The position offers an outstanding research environment with access to state-of-the-art neuroimaging infrastructure, including the 7T Siemens Terra.X Impulse Edition scanner in Magdeburg — one of only very few systems of this kind worldwide — as well as 3T MRI and PET. You will also have access to extensively phenotyped aging and Alzheimer’s disease cohorts with cognitive and molecular biomarker data. The successful candidate will benefit from joint supervision by two PIs in Magdeburg and Bochum and close interaction with researchers across FOR 6027 Layers of Memory. The Research Unit comprises eight projects across eight sites in Germany, Austria, and the Netherlands. The Research Unit offers dedicated workshops on ultra-high-field and laminar imaging, scientific retreats, and specific networking and training opportunities for early-career researchers. At DZNE Magdeburg, you will become part of an interdisciplinary and international research environment spanning cognitive neuroscience, neuroimaging, neurology, aging, and Alzheimer’s disease research, with close links to Otto von Guericke University Magdeburg and the DFG Collaborative Research Center 1436 “Neural Resources of Cognition.” We offer close supervision, regular lab meetings and journal clubs, opportunities for international collaboration, and an open, collaborative, and supportive research environment.For questions about the advertised position, please feel free to contact Dr. Anne Maaß.This research center is part of the Helmholtz Association of German Research Centers. With more than 42,000 employees and an annual budget of over € 5 billion, the Helmholtz Association is Germany's largest scientific organisation.

Chemical conversion coatings are one of the most effective and commercially successful ways to do this. They protect the metal and help paint adhere to it. Yet finding better, environmentally friendly formulations is still largely a matter of trial and error. The number of possible formulations is virtually infinite, so we do not test them one by one. At the Department of Electrochemistry and Big Data, we run a robotic high-throughput testing platform combined with machine learning for AI-assisted discoveries. We are offering a 3-year position, as soon as possible, as a PhD student in the quickly developing field of high-throughput and robotic experimentation in materials science.
