2 PhD student positions in the area of Biological Physics / Biophysics, University of Bayreuth, Germany

The Department of Experimental Physics I at the University of Bayreuth, Germany
invites applications for

2 PhD student positions (m/f/d)

in the area of Biological Physics / Biophysics with a particular focus on
1) self-organization and non-equilibrium phenomena in cells and tissues
2) development and application of lightsheet microscopy in the context of
embryogenesis, tissue organization, and biofabrication

The lab’s research is focused on elucidating physicochemical principles of life, e.g.
dynamic self-organization processes in living matter, using advanced light
microscopy methods (incl. lightsheet microscopy), microfluidics, and computational
approaches (see www.ep1.uni-bayreuth.de/en/research for details).
Candidates should have an interest in interdisciplinary work, which is supported onsite
by an interdisciplinary PhD program (BayNAT) and the Elite Study Program on
Biological Physics. A Masters/Diploma degree in Physics, Biophysics, Physical
Chemistry, (Optical) Engineering, or Cell/Molecular Biology (with additional
qualifications in Physics) is expected. Starting dates for a contract that covers 4
years can be as soon as 10/2021, salary according to TV-L.
