Join the Clinical Cognitive Neuroscience group, led by Dr David Berron. Our research spans the functional architecture of human memory and the medial temporal lobe, how Alzheimer's pathology disrupts these systems from the earliest disease stages onward, and the development of disease-stage-specific imaging and digital cognitive markers.
This position is part of the DFG Research Unit "Layers of Memory" (subproject P7), a consortium spanning Bochum, Bonn, Dortmund, Duisburg-Essen, Magdeburg, and Tübingen, plus partner sites in the Netherlands and Austria. Your tasks will include:
Candidates who meet most, but not all, of these points are still encouraged to apply.
Everyday experience unfolds as a continuous stream that the brain must segment into meaningful episodes — a process that depends on the hippocampus and medial temporal lobe (MTL) and is disrupted early in Alzheimer's disease. Importantly, patients in early disease stages report these difficulties themselves, which makes it clinically relevant for their everyday life. Yet we still don't know how this happens at the level of individual hippocampal and entorhinal layers, or how AD pathology disrupts it. This project combines naturalistic, movie-based fMRI with ultra-high-field (7T) laminar imaging, remote cognitive testing and advanced multivariate and AI-based analyses to map event segmentation at subfield and layer resolution, in young adults, cognitively healthy older adults, and people in early stages of Alzheimer's disease.
The position offers an outstanding research environment with access to state-of-the-art infrastructure, unique scientific collaborations, and excellent opportunities for professional development. You will have access to 7T scanners, including the 7T Siemens Terra.X Impulse Edition scanner in Magdeburg — one of only very few systems of this kind worldwide — plus 3T MRI and PET. The position is embedded in the DFG Research Unit "Layers of Memory", collaborating with laminar-imaging pioneer Prof. David Norris (Essen) and a wider consortium and collaborators spanning ultra-high-field fMRI, laminar fMRI methodology, clinical neurology and Alzheimer’s disease, and human memory and event segmentation.
In addition, you will have access to richly phenotyped and biomarker-characterized patient and control cohorts. We offer close 1:1 supervision, regular lab meetings and journal club, as well as exchange with local and international consortia (e.g. DFG CRC 1436 Neural Resources of Cognition, IHI-ACCESS-AD) and institutions. You will become part of an international, open-minded, experienced, ambitious and supportive team that gets along well beyond just working together.

Your tasks will include:
Candidates who meet most, but not all, of these points are still encouraged to apply.
Applications for the PhD student track are equally welcome; requirements will be considered relative to career stage
Disease-targeting treatments for Alzheimer's disease work best when started early, ideally before clinical symptoms appear. But there is currently no scalable way to screen for early risk or monitor subtle change outside of costly, infrequent in-clinic visits. Smartphone-based cognitive assessments, completed remotely and repeatedly at home, can detect decline that a single annual assessment would miss.
Our group develops and validates such tests and combines them with other biomarkers such as blood-based or imaging biomarkers for research and clinical use cases in early stages of Alzheimer's disease. This project focuses on the detection, monitoring and prediction of memory decline in early Alzheimer's disease using data from national and international research cohorts as well as a real-world cohort, and builds on our earlier work using smartphone-based assessments to detect memory decline.
We offer an excellent research environment with access to datasets from richly phenotyped, biomarker-characterized cohorts on remote and unsupervised cognitive assessment, complemented by a network of close national and international collaborators and initiatives from the EU and US as well as industry. Close 1:1 supervision, regular lab meetings and journal club are provided within an international, open-minded, experienced, ambitious and supportive team that gets along well beyond just working together.

At Helmholtz Munich, we develop groundbreaking solutions for a healthier society in a rapidly changing world. We believe that diverse perspectives drive innovation. Through strong partnerships, we accelerate the transfer of new ideas from the lab to real-life applications, improving lives.
The Research Unit Cellular Proteomics and Metabolic Signaling (headed by Dr. Natalie Krahmer) at the
Institute for Diabetes and Obesity (IDO)
develops and applies organelle-resolved proteomic workflows to investigate the cellular processes underlying the development of cardiometabolic diseases. The PhD position is based in the Research Unit and will be part of the Integrated Research Training Group (iRTG) of the German Research Foundation-funded Collaborative Research Centre (CRC) 1774 “Cardio-Diabetes Crosstalk (CARDDIAB)”.
CRC 1774 investigates how key metabolic organs—including adipose tissue, bone marrow, the intestine, and the liver—communicate with the cardiovascular system and thereby influence the transition from health to prediabetes, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. By combining deeply characterized patient cohorts with state-of-the-art multi-omics technologies, advanced imaging, data science, and artificial intelligence, the CRC aims to uncover the mechanisms underlying cardiometabolic diseases and develop new precision-medicine approaches at the interface of diabetes and cardiovascular research.
You will conduct interdisciplinary projects spanning basic, translational, and clinical research. The programme focuses on inter-organ communication, metabolic regulation, inflammation, cellular energy metabolism, and the cardiovascular complications of diabetes within a highly collaborative and international research environment.
Your project will examine how cellular organelle organization and metabolic signaling pathways are altered during the development of cardiometabolic disease. You will combine biochemical and cell biological approaches with state-of-the-art mass spectrometry-based proteomics, phosphoproteomics, lipidomics, and computational data analysis.
This position provides the opportunity for you to build specialist knowledge whilst developing key professional experience, both of which will help you to make strides in your scientific career.
Remuneration and social security benefits are based on the German Collective Wage Agreement for Public-Sector Employees at Federal Level (EG 13 50% TV EntgO Bund). In addition, there is also the possibility of receiving an allowance if the applicable conditions are met. The position has an (initial) fixed term of three years but may be extended under certain circumstances.
Managing Director Mike Frieser: „We believe that diversity is the key to groundbreaking research and innovative solutions. Our flexible working models and remote options create a supportive environment for balancing work and family life. For us, contributing to a healthier society in such an inspiring workplace is truly meaningful.“

Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) is a fiber-optic technology that transforms optical fibers into dense seismic arrays. When deployed on unused telecommunication fibers (“dark fibers”), DAS provides regularly spaced seismic measurements over tens of kilometers, offering the potential for seismic monitoring over large areas. This research is conducted within the RUBADO project (BMWE, FKZ 03EE4076A), in which DAS is deployed along multiple long-range fiber-optic cables in the Upper Rhine Graben. The goal is to investigate the potential of existing fiber-optic infrastructure for monitoring geothermal reservoirs and induced seismicity at regional scales.
Efficient DAS monitoring requires automated processing of the large volumes of data generated and reliable identification of transient seismic signals, such as microseismic events, within predominantly anthropogenic noise. In addition, the identification of periods of low anthropogenic noise is relevant for applications such as ambient seismic noise interferometry. Machine learning (ML) provides a promising approach for the automated detection and classification of seismic signals in DAS data. The objective of this research is therefore to develop, implement, and validate ML-based methods for improving signal detection and classification in DAS recordings, thereby contributing to the development of efficient monitoring approaches for geothermal reservoirs and induced seismicity, as well as broader seismic applications.
In this framework, the following tasks are expected:

Background and Project Description
The position is embedded in the EU project OceanSOS. Oceanic food webs provide vital ecosystem services to humankind including food, nutrient cycling, and climate regulation. However, we understand little about how existing and emerging human activities threaten food web health and integrity. OceanSOS will assess emerging threats to some of the most dynamic and productive marine ecosystems on Earth by generating essential data on the impacts that existing and emerging threats will have on bentho-pelagic coupling, the biological carbon pump and food web energy flow, and how those impacts will be compounded by climate change.
The advertised position will be dedicated to documentation and quantification of species diversity, biomass and food web interactions from low to high trophic levels from Atlantic deep seas, and to generate and integrate data in food web modelling with focus on the mesopelagic zone. The regional focus is the NACES marine protected area. The successful candidate will work in a consortium in collaboration with the Scottish Association for Marine Science, Imperial College in London, as well as researchers at GEOMAR. The work will involve seagoing expeditions in the Atlantic to apply net sampling and optical underwater observations of pelagic fauna (>1cm) such as midwater invertebrates and fishes. The first cruise to the NACES region will take place from 27th August to 14th of September 2027. Additionally, food web interactions will be investigated by stomach content analysis using visual means, stable isotope analysis and DNA metabarcoding in the laboratories of GEOMAR. The candidate will create a database of Atlantic mesopelagic fauna and their interactions in the NACES and wider Atlantic, and contribute to food web modelling efforts in the OceanSOS consortium. Finally, the successful candidate is expected to write publications as well as contribute to funding and ship time proposals.

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 in line with our vision: “Taking the pulse of our Earth to safeguard a habitable planet”.
For section 4.4 "Hydrology" (department 4 “Geosystems”), we are looking for a:This position is part of the Research Unit “RING: Rotation in Physics, Geodesy, and Geophysics”, funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG). RING brings together expertise from several universities, research institutions and a Federal Agency across Germany to improve measurements with laser-optical instruments to observe changes in Earth rotation. The overall goal is to use these observations to enhance geodetic and geophysical applications, such as quantifying mass variations in the Earth system by climate variability and change. The open position is part of the RING project P6, which analyses the effects of atmospheric and hydrological dynamics on long-period rotational measurements, as a joint effort of GFZ, the German Federal Agency for Cartography and Geodesy (BKG) and the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT).
We are looking for a candidate to investigate the hydrological dynamics in the surroundings of a ring laser at the Geodetic Observatory Wettzell, operated by BKG. The goal is to assess if and how groundwater storage variations and soil moisture changes affect the ring laser measurements through mass-attraction effects and due to tilts caused by surface deformation. The research will be based on hydrological and hydrogeophysical monitoring on the grounds of the observatory and on hydrological modelling of water fluxes and storage variations at local and regional scales. All tasks will be carried out in close collaboration with BKG.

For section 1.1 Space Geodetic Techniques (department “Geodesy”), we are looking for a:This position is part of the Research Unit “RING: Rotation in Physics, Geodesy, and Geophysics”, funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG). RING brings together expertise from several universities, research institutions and a Federal Agency across Germany to improve measurements with laser-optical instruments to observe changes in Earth rotation. The overall goal is to use these observations to enhance geodetic and geophysical applications, such as quantifying mass variations in the Earth system by climate variability and change. The open position is part of the RING project P4, which combines ring laser with the space geodetic techniques VLBI (Very Long Baseline Interferometry) and LLR (Lunar Laser Ranging) as a joint effort of GFZ, the Institute of Geodesy at Leibniz University Hannover (IfE) and the Chair of Satellite Geodesy at Technical University Berlin (TUB).
We are looking for a candidate to explore the common parameter space of ring laser and space geodetic techniques (VLBI, LLR) to determine the link between the lunar ephemeris and the extragalactic frame and for a better separation of polar motion and precession/nutation. A further research objective is the prediction of EOP and the filling of observational gaps that often occur for VLBI and LLR. The target for the three-technique combination is a better understanding of all involved techniques and a more accurate determination of the specific VLBI and LLR parameters. All tasks will be carried out in close collaboration with TUB and IfE.

We focus on how environmental changes affect microbial communities and their metabolic processes and how microorganisms in turn influence element cycling in marine sediments. Our research combines microbiological, molecular and biogeochemical analyses with field and ship-based studies.
In the planned project “Research on Alkalinity Enhancement at the Bülk Wastewater Treatment Plant, Kiel”, we investigate the ecological effects of Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement (OAE). The aim is to assess its effects on microbial communities and biogeochemical processes and thereby evaluate the potential and possible ecological risks of this marine carbon dioxide removal (mCDR) strategy.
To support the work within this project the group is seeking a
