    Job description:

    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.
    Key activities can include:

    • Demonstration and experimental characterization of spin coherence during shuttling
    • Shuttling-compatible demonstration of high-fidelity qubit control
    • Demonstration of T-Junctions (Fig. 1(b)) as step towards qubit grids
    • Advancement of a shuttling based architecture with 2D-connectivity
    • Migration to industrially fabricated devices

    Diploma & Master Thesis


    Job description:

    Your Job:

    To achieve the goal of greenhouse gas neutrality, so-called negative emission paths must be followed to compensate for remaining residual emissions, in addition to the strict defossilization of the economic system. CO2 capture from ambient air and its storage represents an important technical solution in this context. In your master thesis you will develop approaches based on Natural Language Processing (NLP) to evaluate the increasing number of patents and scientific publications. The goal is to identify both disruptive and incremental innovations for the much-needed DAC technology. The basis of the work is a classification of DAC technologies as well as their functional descriptions, which was developed in cooperation with technology experts. Based on this, a methodology will be developed and prototypically implemented to identify innovations in the field of these technologies in a large patent dataset in addition to evaluating them with respect to their relevance. In the last step, it will be discussed to what extent the developed methods can be transferred to the evaluation of scientific articles.

    • Familiarization yourself with the topic (NLP, Large Language Models, Patents, Direct Air Capture)
    • Development of the methodology in close cooperation with the supervisors
    • Creation of data sets (partly automatically by heuristics, partly manually)
    • Prototypical development of the individual modules
    • Identification of textual descriptions of technical solutions in patents
    • Identification of the advantages and disadvantages of a technical solution with respect to the prior art
    • Integration of the modules into a pipeline for identification and evaluation of technical solutions


    Your Profile:

    • Technical master studies with high affinity to Natural Language Processing (mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, construction engineering) or information technology study background with high interest in technical applications (computer science, computational linguistics)
    • Good knowledge of Python
    • Experience in NLP and in dealing with language models advantageous
    • Interest in technical design issues
    • Independent and analytical way of working

    Administrative staff


    Job description:Helmholtz Investigator Group Leader (m/f/d)

    Background
    As an internationally renowned Helmholtz Center for Polar and Marine Research, the Alfred Wegener Institute (AWI) is one of the very few scientific institutions in the world that are equally active in the Arctic and Antarctic. It coordinates German polar research efforts, while also conducting research in the North Sea and adjacent coastal regions in Germany. Combining outstanding research infrastructure, cutting edge field work, and innovative modelling approaches the Alfred Wegener Institute explores nearly all aspects of the Earth system and its biodiversity – from the atmosphere to the ocean floor, from land and coasts to the ice-covered seas.

    Call for Expression of Interest
    The Alfred Wegener Institute and its partner universities seek Expressions of Interest from outstanding talents to apply for their own Investigator Group (HGF call for application). The two-step process will start with an internal selection process of up to three candidates in the thematic or open track as specified below. The final selection of candidates will be carried out by an external expert panel advising the president of the Helmholtz Association. Helmholtz Investigator Groups (HIGs) of successful applicants will be hosted at the AWI. Funding is on the order of €350,000 per year for a period of five years, with potential access to further substantial research infrastructure depending on internal negotiation within AWI. The position is limited to five years and offers access to a tenure track procedure. 

    Eligibility
    You will be eligible to apply if you have between two and six years of postdoctoral experience (academic age), with up to 6 month at the center you are applying to. For maternity / parental leave, the track record is adjusted according to the rules of HGF (HGF call for application). Further requirements are international research experience as demonstrated by a continuous research stay abroad for at least 6 months during the doctoral or postdoctoral studies and, of course, an exceptionally strong CV and draft proposal addressing one of the following topics for which we seek outstanding experts to strengthen our research program.


    Thematic track: In the first step, up to two candidates will be selected from applications to the following themes:

    1) Marine polar climate reconstruction from microfossils - mass spectrometry-based element and isotopic analytics on foraminifera
    The HIG shall conduct research in the field of marine polar climate reconstructions with the help of calcareous microfossils as carriers of proxy information on past ocean and climate conditions. The aim is to reconstruct ocean-atmosphere-cryosphere interactions, quantify their effects on atmospheric CO2 levels and decipher the high-latitude oceans’ role in the global carbon cycle. The physical and biogeochemical processes in the ocean from surface to depth are essential to understand these interactions. Key parameters in this complex system comprise oceanic pH, carbonate ion chemistry, as well as heat exchange and stratification driven by temperature and salinity. These variables shall be assessed through a combination of isotopic and elemental proxy analyses (δ18O, Mg/Ca, B/Ca, δ11B). Successful applicants should have expert knowledge in mass spectrometry-based analytics of foraminifera, scientific achievements in line with their career stage that provide evidence for future leadership in their discipline, high-quality publications, excellent scientific literacy and outstanding scientific vision.

    Information on relevant research at AWI can be found here. If you are interested in submitting an application on this topic, please contact Prof. Ralf Tiedemann and Dr. Lester Lembke-Jene of AWI and from the University Bremen Prof. Simone Kasemann.

    2) Polar boundary layer processes
    The HIG conducts research in the field of measurements of polar boundary layer processes with a focus on turbulence and/or clouds. The project should target small-scale processes in high-latitude boundary layers in a way that contributes to answering big questions on the past, present and future of our climate system. Possible aims include understanding turbulent surface fluxes over polar land, sea-ice or oceans, stable boundary layers, cloud-turbulence interactions or understanding cloud feedbacks to Arctic and Antarctic warming and sea-ice retreat. The successful applicant will have the opportunity to use and further develop our unique observational tools, particularly the polar aircraft equipped with meteorological instrumentation The HIG would be part of AWI’s polar meteorology group, whose common ambition is to push the limits of our understanding of small-scale atmospheric processes to improve our knowledge and modelling capabilities of the climate system. The HIG contributes to research in the Section Atmospheric Physics of AWI. This opens particular opportunities for collaboration within the German DFG Collaborative project AC3 on Arctic amplification and/or the international Antarctic research initiative Antarctica InSync. The applicant should be a curious and creative researcher with experience in boundary-layer processes, ideally also in airborne observations and/or measurements of turbulence.

    Information on relevant research at AWI can be found here. If you are interested in submitting an application on this topic, please contact Dr. Felix Pithan.

    Before applying for one of these topics at the AWI, please contact the respective persons named!


    Open track: Up to one candidate will be selected in the open track in the first step:
    You can also apply in any field of research in which you have recently excelled if it is generally related to the AWI's research program. This can be demonstrated by a grand idea supported by a first own publication and a CV fit for an ERC application.

    If you are interested in submitting an application in the open track, you should identify and contact a potential mentor for realizing your idea from the AWI faculty. If you need help, please contact corinna.kanzog@awi.de.

    Job description:Master students in environmental sciences (f/m/d)

    Background
    The Alfred Wegener Institute Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research (AWI) is a member of the Helmholtz Association (HGF) and funded by federal and state government. AWI focuses on polar and marine research in a variety of disciplines such as biology, oceanography, geology and geophysics thus allowing multidisciplinary approaches to scientific goals.
    Within the framework of the Bundesamt für Naturschutz funded project DEFINE2 (https://www.awi.de/en/science/biosciences/shelf-sea-system-ecology/main-research-focus/european-oyster/translate-to-english-define.html) we are looking for two

    Master students in environmental sciences(f/m/d)


    to investigate effects of experimental ocean alkalinisation enhancement (OAE) treatments on

    a) the general water chemistry and
    b) the dynamics of potentially pathogenic Vibrio spp. populations.



    Background
    Development and implementation of sustainable negative emission technologies (NETs) are key to meet the goals of the 2015 Paris Agreement and keep global warming below 2°C. One promising NET is OAE but to date, a sound ecological risk assessment of nearshore OAE is lacking. Against this background, the project DEFINE2 aims to investigate the ecophysiological impact of OAE on ecologically and economically important bivalves in temperate Seas
    by using the mesocosm facility on Helgoland. In the framework of the planned experimental campaign of DEFINE2 in 2025, we aim to investigate the effects of OAE treatments on the general water chemistry (e.g. DOC, Nitrogen compounds, total alkalinity), and on the dynamics of potentially pathogenic Vibrio spp. populations (by culture dependent techniques and MALDI-TOF).

      Job description:

      GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research Kiel is a foundation under public law jointly financed by the Federal Republic of Germany (90%) and the State of Schleswig-Holstein (10%). It is one of the internationally leading institutions in the field of marine research.

      Through our research and our commitment to the transfer of knowledge and technology, we contribute significantly to the preservation of the function and protection of the ocean for future generations.

      The research unit “Chemical Oceanography” of the research division “Marine Biogeochemistry” is offering a

      Postdoctoral position (m/f/d)

      in assessment of the behavior, distribution and fate of munition compounds in marine systems

      starting as soon as possible.

      Project Description

      European waters are widely contaminated with underwater munition. The majority of munition originates from dumping activities during and after WWI and WWII to eliminate large quantities of war remnants, including conventional and chemical weapons. The munition includes millions of tons of de-fused shells, mines and aerial bombs. Furthermore, unexploded ordnance, sunken underwater mine barriers, and wrecks of military vessels carrying munitions contribute to the problem. It is estimated that the German portions of the North Sea and Baltic Sea alone contain approx. 1.6 million tons of munitions, which can be often found in relatively shallow waters, near fishing activities, major shipping routes, and offshore development locations. Two new EU-funded projects, MMinE-SwEEPER and MUNI-RISK seek to advance our understanding of the role, fate and impact of marine munition in the environment, including the effects of remediation actions on contamination spread. These projects will generate detailed data on the extent of munitions-related chemical contamination in European waters, with special focus on the Baltic, North, and Mediterranean Seas. In addition, these projects will further develop fieldable technologies for munition chemical monitoring in near-real-time at sea. The projects will be conducted in close collaboration with a range of universities, research institutes, commercial companies, and UXO specialists.

      Job Description / Duties

      The candidate will be part of the MMinE-SwEEPER and MUNI-RISK consortia that will advance scientific understanding on effects of munition in the marine environment and develop methods for prioritizing and implementing remediation actions. She:He will be involved in field measurements in munition dump sites in European coastal seas. The candidate will lead and coordinate laboratory analyses of munition chemicals in field samples using HPLC and high resolution ESI/APCI-MS, as well as manage and interpret the data with project partners. He:She will assist with further chemical method and hardware development of the Xplotector, a lab-in-a-box system for at-sea detection of munition chemicals. The tasks of the candidate will also comprise the presentation of results at national and international scientific meetings and the publication of the results in established peer-reviewed scientific journals.

      PhD Student (f/m/d) Interaction of technetium with iron(II) carbonate minerals

      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 (IRE) performs research to protect humans and the environment from hazards caused by pollutants resulting from technical processes that produce energy and raw materials. One major goal is gaining a better understanding of fundamental processes defining transport and accumulation of radiotoxic elements in the geo- and biosphere including the food chain.

      The Department of Surface Processes invites applications as PhD Student (f/m/d)to experimentally investigate fundamental geochemistry of technetium (Tc).

      Tc is the lightest chemical element with only radioactive isotopes and very interesting chemical and physical properties. Although of high concern, in particular for the safety assessment of potential nuclear waste repositories, technetium molecular interactions in the environment are poorly understood. The PhD studies will focus on the immobilization of Tc triggered by Fe(II)-carbonate minerals. The retention of Tc will be comprehensively quantified by (radio)analytical techniques. By combining a variety of spectroscopic, microscopic and diffraction techniques the underlying molecular processes will be identified and characterized.

      The PhD studies are part of the RULET joint project “Rückhaltung und Löslichkeit dosisrelevanter Radionuklide unter den reduzierenden Nahfeldbedingungen eines Endlagers im Ton- oder Kristallingestein” (“Retention and solubility of dose-relevant radionuclides under the reducing near-field conditions of a repository in clay or crystalline rock”), that is funded by the Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation, Nuclear Safety and Consumer Protection RULET (02E12224E).

      Promotion


      Job description:

      Your Job:

      About the project: Calcium carbonate (CaCO3) is crucial in both natural and engineered environments, acting as a long-term carbon sink and aiding environmental remediation by capturing heavy metals and radionuclides. (Radio)Toxic elements like radium (226Ra) pose significant risks, often stemming from subsurface energy-related applications. 226Ra can be incorporated into carbonate minerals during mineral growth or replacement reactions, resulting in solid solutions. These co-precipitation processes can control radium mobility in the environment and can be exploited in the design of engineered barriers for 226Ra retention. However, there is a lack of understanding of how such ions are incorporated into stable carbonate solid solutions. This project aims to integrate experiments and simulations to elucidate 226Ra retention by CaCO3, the crystallization pathways and replacement reactions, and the thermodynamic properties of the formed solid solutions. Our approach involves the development of microfluidic experiments combined with advanced analytical techniques. The results will inform environmental remediation strategies and safe nuclear waste disposal.

      Your tasks within the project:

      • Development of microfluidic experiments for 226Ra uptake in carbonates
      • Conduct advanced analyses of Ra-bearing carbonates using Raman, XRD, SEM including synchrotron-based X-ray analysis (µ-XRF and µ-XRD)
      • Modelling of fluid flow in microfluidic reactors
      • Collaboration with modelers (atomistic simulation) to derive the thermodynamic properties of Ra-bearing carbonates
      • Presentation of results at scientific conferences and in peer-reviewed publications


      Your Profile:

      • Master`s degree or diploma in chemistry, radiochemistry, environmental chemistry, geochemistry, chemical engineering, mineralogy or a related field
      • Experience in working in a wet chemical laboratory.
      • Experience in geochemical or thermodynamic modelling is desirable
      • Strong English communication and writing skills
      • Ability to work collaboratively in a multidisciplinary and international team

      Job description:

      We seek to recruit an outstanding scientist working in a current field of the chemical kinetics of molecular systems.

      The scientific focus should be on the in-depth mechanistic understanding of elementary kinetic processes. Of particular interest are experimental approaches, e.g. by means of time-resolved (possibly also spatially resolved) spectroscopy, that lead to kinetic predictions over extended time and length scales.  Conceivable fields of work would be, for example: electronically non-adiabatic processes with relevance to photo-, or atmospheric-chemistry, influencing reaction processes through non-thermal molecular energetic distributions in different phases from combustion chemistry to spatially restricted systems, optionally also reactions at very high or low temperatures and pressures.

      The candidates should have a broad understanding of modern reaction kinetic measurement- and modelling methods also to facilitate collaborations in existing and future research foci at KIT. Examples of such research foci are photochemistry and fluorescent imaging on the nanoscale or in biological systems, heterogeneous catalysis for emission control or energy storage, molecule-based quantum technologies, 4f-molecule chemistry, setup and application of self-driving laboratories.

      University duties involve teaching obligations of 9 SWS. Furthermore, the university professorship (W3) participates in the collegial institute management of the Institute of Physical Chemistry (IPC).

      The Research Institute for Sustainability at GFZ (RIFS) is an international, inter-, and transdisciplinary research institute in Potsdam, Germany. The main focus of the institute is to integrate different types of knowledge to support a transformation of society towards sustainability. Its research approach is transdisciplinary, transformative, and co-creative. As part of its Fellow Programme, the RIFS awards the

      Call for Applications - Reference Number 10110

      Prof. Dr. Klaus Töpfer was the Founding Director of the Institute for Advanced Sustainability Studies (IASS) – now RIFS – in Potsdam, Germany. With the Klaus Töpfer Sustainability Fellowship, RIFS wants to support individuals who, like Klaus Töpfer, are committed to sustainable development and build bridges between science, politics, and society.

      RIFS is looking for applications from highly talented mid-career professionals, from Germany or abroad, who have worked for at least ten years on issues related to sustainable development and have the potential to serve as change agents. The proposed project should have a long-term impact that unfolds beyond the Fellowship. It should address a particularly relevant aspect of sustainability with particular effectiveness (e.g. through the chosen method, planned event or intended communication channels) or effectively address a relevant aspect that has so far received too little attention.

      Work placement


      Job description:

      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 Profile:

      • You are highly motivated, with an interest in probability theory, mathematics, and data science.
      • Very good practical C++ and Python programming skills allow you to make your ideas happen.
      • You have strong interest in curiosity-driven multidisciplinary research.

      Our Offer:

      We work on the very latest issues that impact our society and are offering you the chance to actively help in shaping the change!

      We support you in your work with:

      • An interesting and socially relevant topic for your thesis with future-oriented topics
      • Ideal conditions for gaining practical experience alongside your Master studies
      • An interdisciplinary collaboration on projects in an international, committed and collegial team
      • Excellent technical equipment and the newest technology
      • Qualified supervision and support
      • The chance to independently prepare and work on your tasks
      • Flexible working hours as well as working location


      In addition to exciting tasks and a collaborative working atmosphere at Jülich, we have a lot more to offer: go.fzj.de/benefits

      We welcome applications from people with diverse backgrounds, e.g. in terms of age, gender, disability, sexual orientation / identity, and social, ethnic and religious origin. A diverse and inclusive working environment with equal opportunities in which everyone can realize their potential is important to us.

      Scientific / postdoctoral posts


      Job description:Postdoc im ERC-Projekt COLDSPOT (f/d/m)

      Background
      The advertised position is part of the ERC Starting Grant project “Arctic Greenhouse Gas Sinks: Exploring Coldspots of Methane and Nitrous Oxide in the Permafrost Domain (COLDSPOT)”. This project investigates the magnitude and functioning of greenhouse gas sinks in the Arctic.
      The release of greenhouse gases from the terrestrial biosphere has global significance. The Arctic acts as a net source of methane (CH₄) and nitrous oxide (N₂O), making it a biogeochemically critical ecosystem due to its vast soil carbon and nitrogen reserves and above-average warming rates. Current reporting of Arctic greenhouse gases shows an observational bias toward high-emitting hotspot sites. In contrast, COLDSPOT focuses on Arctic locations that function as CH₄ and N₂O sinks, removing these climate-relevant gases from the atmosphere. Specifically, the project aims to investigate how plants influence nutrient availability and microbial activity, thereby regulating fluxes of CH₄, N₂O, and other climate-relevant gases.
      We are seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral researcher with expertise in biogeochemistry, plant physiology, microbiology, or a related field. In this role, you will investigate how processes in the plant-soil-microbe continuum regulate greenhouse gas fluxes, with a particular focus on the consumption of atmospheric CH₄ and N₂O in Arctic ecosystems. You will study the biogeochemical and microbial functioning of CH₄ and N₂O sinks through a combination of field experiments (e.g., plant removal experiments) and laboratory manipulation of intact plant-soil systems (mesocosms) in climate chambers. Field sites are located in Canada and Finland.

      You are encouraged to bring your own research ideas, with the project potentially focusing on various aspects of plant-soil interactions depending on your prior experience. In addition to in situ and lab-based greenhouse gas flux measurements, your work could emphasize:
      • Microbial dynamics (e.g., methanotroph and nitrogen-cycling gene abundance and activity)
      • Soil-plant-atmosphere fluxes of carbon, nitrogen, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs)
      • Biological nitrogen fixation
      • Stable isotope tracer experiments


      You will join a new research group established through close collaboration between the Alfred Wegener Institute and the University of Hamburg. This position offers the opportunity to work in a dynamic team of experts and access state-of-the-art laboratory facilities. You are expected to participate in field expeditions, collaborate closely with team members and project partners, present findings at scientific meetings and conferences, and publish results in peer-reviewed journals. Opportunities for supervising students are also available, depending on your interests.


      Your Tasks
      • Independently plan and conduct field campaigns in the Canadian and Finnish Arctic
      • Design and conduct lab experiments to investigate the biotic and abiotic mechanisms underlying CH4 and N2O uptake by Arctic soils, and link CH4 and N2O flux rates to nutrient cycling, plant- or microbial functioning
      • Conduct experimental manipulation studies including a mesocosm experiment in climate-controlled chambers
      • Collaborate closely with team members and scientific partners
      • Publish results in peer-reviewed scientific journals
      • Present results at national and international scientific conferences and team meetings


      Your Profile
      • A PhD in a relevant field
      • Strong background in biogeochemical cycles, plant functioning and/or bioinformatics, ideally in high-latitude ecosystems
      • Experience in field or lab-based measurements of either greenhouse gas fluxes, BVOCs, nitrogen fixation, nutrient turnover or microbiology
      • Coding (e.g. R, Matlab, Python) and statistics skills
      • Proven record of scientific work and publications in international scientific journals
      • Ability to conduct independent work
      • Willingness to participate in multi-week field expeditions to remote Arctic sites and work in diverse research teams
      • Strong oral and written communication skills 
      • very good English skills (C1)


      Preferred Qualifications and Skills
      • A driver’s license class B as well as Finnish and German language skills are an advantage

      Job description:Master Thesis: microbiology or chemistry – Differentiation of potentially pathogenic Vibrio spp. by FTIR-spectroscopy

      Background
      Diseases and infections caused by contact with contaminated water or byconsuming seafood, pose a problem for the economy and worldwide health care.Sea and brackish water in our coastal regions offer a diverse habitat formarine microorganisms, also including potentially human or animal pathogenicbacteria such as Vibrio spp. Increased growth rates of Vibrio spp.induced by rising temperatures has already led to an increase in Vibriospp. in the past, but also to massive infections of mussel populations duringthe summer months. For fast and reliable identification of bacterial isolates,MALDI-TOF is meanwhile the method of choice. Recently, for differentiatingpopulations (ecotypes/genotypes), FTIR spectroscopy was suggested and applied,but mostly in the clinical environment.

      Tasks
      As part of the master's thesis, various Vibrio spp. isolates will be analyzed by using FTIR-spectroscopy and subsequently differentiated by bioinformatic tools.


      Requirements
      We are looking for a master student in microbiology or environmental sciences.

      Job description:

      Electrolyzers are a uniquely promising technology for the sustainable production of hydrogen-based chemicals and fuels. In order to achieve the desired cost targets to make electrolyzers competitive with fossil fuels, novel catalysts with high performance and little to no precious metal content are crucial. However, current catalysts, e.g. in proton exchange membrane water electrolyzers (PEMWE), contain expensive platinum and iridium. The limited PEMWE scalability due to global iridium scarcity and base metal instability in the acidic PEMWE environment are bringing alkaline WE systems back into the spotlight. The ultimate goal is to use resource-efficient non-precious metal catalysts to accelerate the transition to electrolyzers for the production of cost-effective, sustainable fuels.

      Your tasks will include:

      • Development of novel multi-metal electrocatalysts
      • Electrocatalytic investigation with different electrochemical cells (fundamental setups versus application devices)
      • Thorough characterization of catalysts using techniques such as XRD, XANES, EXAFS, XPS, etc. before and after electrocatalysis to identify possible material changes
      • Additional characterization of selected catalyst systems during electrocatalysis (operando) for a more detailed understanding of material change
      • Guidance of students and doctoral candidates, teaching in the field of heterogeneous/electrocatalysis
      • Preparation of presentations, reports and publication of articles in scientific journals

      Part-Time Suitability:

      The position is suitable for part-time employment.


      Job description:Master thesis: Testing an offshore aquaculture system for Ulva sp. cultivation

      Background
      Seaweed cultivation is currently receiving abundant attention as a nature-based solution to climate change and as a tool that can provide ecosystem services to humanity and contribute to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Offshore or exposed aquaculture has been identified as a potential option for increasing seafood production due to ample space for expansion, high carrying, reduced conflict with other maritime industries, low exposure to human sources of pollution, and the potential to reduce some of the negative environmental impacts of coastal fish farming. Using currently existing maritime infrastructure for the establishment of offshore aquaculture (so called multi-use) can further reduce impacts and conflicts in the marine realm. In the OLAMUR project, commercial scale production of low-trophic organisms (i.e. mussels and seaweed) in a multi-use framework in the North Sea is being tested. One of the structures used is based on the shellfish tower design. We are looking for a Master’s Student to test the feasibility of using an offshore aquaculture tower design for Ulva sp. cultivation. The student should carry out the isolation and germination of Ulva spores in the lab, seed the spores onto nets or lines for offshore deployment, maintain the seeded nets or lines in a recirculating system untnil deployment, and support the deployment, maintenance and sampling of the structure in the North Sea wind-park.


      Tasks
      • Conduct a direct seeding method for the offshore tower
      • Develop an experimental design for the induction of fertility in Ulva in the lab
      • Induce fertility of Ulva sp. in the lab for obtaining spores
      • Isolate and seed Ulva spores onto ropes/nets in the lab
      • Develop an experimental design for monitoring growth and chemical composition of Ulva sp. on the offshore tower
      • Cultivate the seeded substrate, including seawater and media preparation and daily maintenance
      • Deploy seeded substrate onto the offshore tower
      • Regular seaweed sampling campaigns after deployment


      Requirements
      • Bachelor in Marine Biology, Biotechnology, Biology, Environmental Science, Microbiology or similar
      • Willingness to travel and work on Helgoland and on sea-going expeditions on research vessels under all weather conditions
      • Ability to work well in a team
      • Good English communication and writing skills
      • Experience in culture techniques of marine algae is desirable, but not necessary

      Sonstiges


      Job description:

      GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research Kiel is a foundation under public law jointly financed by the Federal Republic of Germany (90%) and the State of Schleswig-Holstein (10%). It is one of the internationally leading institutions in the field of marine research.

      Through our research and our commitment to the transfer of knowledge and technology, we contribute significantly to the preservation of the function and protection of the ocean for future generations.

      The Harter Lab is part the Research Unit “Experimental Ecology” within the Research Division “Marine Ecology” (RD3). The overarching goal of our combined research efforts is to understand the biological mechanisms that determine the resilience of marine organisms to anthropogenic environmental change, such as global warming, ocean acidification, eutrophication and pollution.

      Background | As global ocean temperatures increase, so does the body temperature of all cold-blooded fishes, a group that represent half of all vertebrate species. The challenge is two-fold: warmer water contains less oxygen while warmer body temperatures increase oxygen demand. Overcoming this fundamental imbalance between oxygen supply and demand may be the key for fish species to survive in a changing world. The bulk of oxygen transport from the environment to the tissues is carried out by haemoglobin within red blood cells. Emerging evidence indicates that red blood cells are not simply a vessel for haemoglobin, but actively participate in the regulation of cardiovascular gas transport: i) by modulating their intracellular microenvironment and the characteristics of haemoglobin; ii) by sensing the oxygen and acid-base conditions in the microvasculature; and iii) by releasing signalling molecules into the blood that regulate the local blood supply and the oxygen consumption of the tissues. The cellular and molecular mechanisms by which red blood cells sense their environment, maintain cellular homeostasis and interact with other cell types are still poorly understood. In addition, how climate change affects red blood cell function and their ability to regulate cardiovascular gas transport in fishes, remains entirely unknown.

      Objective | To study the cellular mechanisms of sensing and signalling in red blood cells, by which fishes balance cardiovascular gas transport and metabolic demand over a broad range of environmental and metabolic conditions.

      Model system | Populations of Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) from the Baltic, Atlantic and Arctic Oceans are experiencing vastly different rates of environmental change and thus, present a unique opportunity to study local adaptations and phenotypic plasticity at the level of the red blood cells. This species is of great commercial interest for fisheries and aquaculture and maintains a pivotal ecological role as a top predator.

      Outcomes | This work will improve our fundamental understanding of how single cells sense and regulate their internal and external environments and communicate with other cell types. Results may unveil novel therapeutic targets that improve health outcomes in human medicine, and the knowledge will be critical to understand, predict and mitigate the impacts of climate change on fishes, aquatic ecosystems and human economic activities that depend on them (aquaculture, fisheries, tourism).The research unit “Experimental Ecology” in the research division 3: “Marine Ecology” is offering a

      Postdoc (m/f/d) position

      in “Cellular sensing and signalling mechanisms of fish red blood cells”

      starting as early as April 1st 2025.

      Job Description

      The successful candidate will investigate the cellular and molecular physiology of Atlantic cod red blood cells by: i) performing genomic and transcriptomic searches for putative oxygen and acid base sensors (e.g., globins, bicarbonate-sensing sAC and proton-sensing GPCRs), in combination with protein localisation (e.g., by western blotting and super-resolution microscopy); ii) pharmacological inhibition of target sensors, combined with ion flux measurements (e.g., with radioisotopes) and live-cell imaging of intracellular pH and membrane potential; and iii) genetic manipulations of red blood cells (e.g., through chemical transfection) to study the subcellular localisation of tagged fusion proteins in live cells, in addition to over-expression and knock-down experiments of oxygen and acid-base sensors. Therefore, this project combines cutting-edge microscopy techniques for super-resolution and live-cell imaging, with a variety of cell and molecular lab techniques. In addition, the successful candidate will have the opportunity to participate in ocean-going expeditions on GEOMAR/AWI vessels in the Baltic, Atlantic and Arctic and will help maintain animals at the GEOMAR aquatic facilities. Candidates are expected to be fluent in English, have excellent communication skills and a desire to work with others in a diverse international team. Finally, postdocs will have the opportunity to mentor graduate and undergraduate students and participate in teaching and outreach activities at the GEOMAR, AWI and the University of Kiel.

      starting as early as April 1st 2025. This position offers the possibility to attain a doctoral degree in natural sciences.

      Job Description

      The successful candidate will investigate the phenotypic plasticity of red blood cell function in Atlantic cod by conducting in vivo acclimation experiments to: i) warming; ii) hypoxia; and iii) hypercapnia/ocean acidification. Red blood cell function will be assessed before and after the acclimation period, using: i) molecular techniques (transcriptomincs, western blots); ii) microscopy techniques (immunocytochemitry with super-resolution microscopy and intracellular pH regulation by live-cell imaging); and iii) biochemical assays (haemoglobin-oxygen binding characteristics, cellular metabolic rates, enzyme activities and membrane properties). Then, to establish a functional link between red blood cell physiology and organismal performance, the metabolic rate of acclimated fish will be measured by respirometry and after aerobic challenges: i) warming to determine the critical thermal maximum (CTmax); ii) exercise in a swim tunnel to determine the maximal swim speed (Ucrit); and iii) intermittent hypoxia to determine the critical PO2 (Pcrit) that is required to maintain routine aerobic metabolism. Therefore, this project combines cutting-edge microscopy techniques for super-resolution and live-cell imaging, with a variety of cell and molecular lab techniques and whole animal metabolic measurements. In addition, the successful candidate will participate in ocean-going expeditions on GEOMAR/AWI vessels in the Baltic, Atlantic and Arctic, to capture Atlantic cod populations in the wild and will help maintain animals at the GEOMAR aquatic facilities.

      Job description:

      The overall goal of this DFG founded project is to produce novel inorganic coatings for cement-bound materials. Cementitious materials are the most significant due to their advantages in terms of raw material availability, processing, usability, material properties, durability and price. On the other hand, there is the large amount of CO2 in the production of cement. The coatings are intended to significantly increase the service life of the materials. In return, this would lead to savings in cement use and thus help reduce global CO2 emissions. Our idea is to formulate a completely inorganic coating (without carbon). The opportunity arose because we were able to shift the hydrophobic carrier into a rare earth oxide. Rare earth oxides (such as Eu2O3) have an electronic structure in which the 4f orbitals are shielded from interactions with the environment by the full octet of electrons in the 5s2p6 outer shell. Consequently, these atoms would be less likely to exchange electrons and would not form a hydrogen bond with the water molecules at the interface. The aim of the project will be to anchor the hydrophobic carrier in the material with ligands so that it is not washed out again. All components used must be biologically harmless in the long term. By using model surfaces, the use of materials can be greatly reduced. In addition, calcium silicate hydrate phases grown on silicon single crystals are ideally reproducible and can be used in surface science methods. Attempts will then be made to transfer the process to real cement-bound material surfaces.

      This project is a cooperation between the KIT working group 'Atomistic Modeling and Simulation of Mineral Materials and Interfaces' led by Dr. Peter Thissen and the working group for physical chemistry led by Prof. Dr. Michael Kumke in Potsdam.

      The coating industry is currently one industry with the highest turnover in the world. In this interesting project, we offer the opportunity to enter the coating industry and also cooperate with market-leading companies.
