Germany : 2 Ph.D. Positions in Chemistry

University of Heidelberg and Karlsruhe Institute of Technology
Group of Biofunctional Polymer Materials

In our research group, we have several projects focused on the development of biologically active functional polymer surfaces and materials, "smart" switchable polymer surfaces, and gradient surfaces that we use for fundamental investigations of biological interfaces, for studying cell‐ and bacteriasurface interactions and for studying biofouling. Motivation behind our research is: to learn how cells and bacteria interact with surfaces; to develop biocompatible, biomimetic and "smart" materials that can improve performance of existing biomedical or cell culture devices; and to use this knowledge and materials to achieve intelligent control over behavior of cells and bacteria on surfaces. Our research is very interdisciplinary and we closely collaborate with biologists and physicists.

We have several open Ph.D. positions (1/2 TV‐L 13) and are looking for
highly motivated students majored in chemistry or polymer chemistry. Starting date ‐ as soon as possible.

Applications should include a cover letter, copies of certificates of academic qualifications, curriculum vitae, and should be addressed ‐ preferably in PDF format by email to
