The Max Planck Institute for Multidisciplinary Sciences is a leading international research institute of exceptional scientific breadth. With more than 40 research groups and some 1,000 employees from over 50 nations, it is the largest institute of the Max Planck Society.
The Department of Theoretical and Computational Biophysics (Prof. Dr. Helmut Grubmüller) is inviting applications for a
PhD Student (f/m/d)
in the field of
Theory and Methods for Non-equilibrium Theory and Atomistic Simulations of Complex Biomolecules
Possible projects are variational free energy methods, thermodynamics of solvation shells, constant-pH simulation methods, Markovian thermodynamics, as well as functional mechanisms of the ribosome, fatty acid synthase, CRISPR/Cas or intrinsically disordered proteins.
Please indicate in your application which of the above listed projects is most intriguing for you. Eligible candidates have strong skills in computational molecular (bio)physics, statistical mechanics, scientific computing and also a keen interest in interdisciplinary research and collaboration with experimental groups.
You hold (or expect to complete soon) a Master’s or equivalent degree in physics, mathematics or any related field.
State of the art on-site high performance/GPU compute facilities
Competitive research in an inspiring, world-class environment
A wide range of offers to help you balance work and family life
Further training opportunities and free in-house language courses
The group language is English, so no German language skills are required - but it is a great opportunity for you to learn German! The historic city of Göttingen, located in the heart of Germany, offers great outdoors and cultural opportunities, a vibrant student scene, and an impressive scientific heritage.
You will have the opportunity to participate in one of several available PhD programs, with three years funding, in collaboration with the University of Göttingen. Master’s students aiming at a fast-track PhD are also welcome. Payment and benefits are based on the German Public Service Payscale (TVöD Bund) guidelines. We would like to fill the position as soon as possible, but the exact start date is flexible.
The Max Planck Society is committed to increasing the number of individuals with disabilities in its workforce and, therefore, encourages applications from such qualified individuals. The Max Planck Society strives for diversity and gender equality and welcomes applications from all backgrounds.
