Germany : 2 PhD positions in mathematical modeling in plant science

A Junior Research Group (funded by the Emmy Noether program of the
German Science Foundation, DFG) invites applications for

2 PhD positions in mathematical modeling of transport processes in
plants (m/f)

The group seeks to understand the transport of water, solutes and gases in plant tissues using a mathematical modeling approach. Although theapproach is purely theoretical, considering experimental biological information is a must to obtain physiologically relevant models.

Hence, the projects are strongly interdisciplinary and contain a tight
collaboration with experimental partners. The interested applicants
should hold a master or diploma degree in Physics or Mathematics
(also theoretically oriented biologists). Basic knowledge
in flow and transport equations (and their numerics) will be necessary,
as well as basic programming skills.

Further information on the specific projects is available at here.

The position is available immediately. Funding is for 36 months and the
salary will be according to the appropriate civil service level BAT
IIa/E13 (65%).

The place of work is the University of Heidelberg, Germany.

Interested applicants should submit preferentially by email (PDF-files)
or mail (hard-copy) a CV, a short description of the diploma/masters
project and scientific interests, certificates of academic
qualification and two letters of recommendation.
