Über diese Stelle

In the *Department of Living Matter Physics* (LMP) we seek to fill a number of

*Postdoctoral Researcher positions.**
*- Statistical Physics and Active Matter -**

The Max Planck Institute for Dynamics and Self-Organization (MPI-DS) at Göttingen, Germany, is an international, interdisciplinary and collaborative environment offering an exceptional research setting. It hosts a range of theoretical and experimental fundamental scientific research and a diverse group of researchers. Altogether, it employs about 300 people.

The LMP department engages in a wide range of theoretical research aimed at understanding the dynamics of living systems from a physical perspective. The department currently hosts Ramin Golestanian (director), Philip Bittihn (group leader), Suropriya Saha (group leader), and a number of postdoctoral researchers, students, and visitors.

*The research**

The postdoctoral researchers will engage in theoretical and computational research in Nonequilibrium Statistical Physics and Active Matter. For more information, visit our website ([http://www.ds.mpg.de/lmp](http://www.ds.mpg.de/lmp "http://www.ds.mpg.de/lmp")).

We are looking for excellent, enthusiastic and self-motivated researchers with relevant background and good communication skills to join our research team.

The ideal candidate should have:

A PhD/DPhil degree (or comparable) with a background in theoretical physics, applied mathematics or related disciplines from a recognized university;
Prior experience with nonequilibrium statistical physics and a strong interest in active matter physics;
Ability and desire to work in an international team on inter-disciplinary research topics;
Good command of English, which is the working language of the department. German is an asset but not required.
*Our offer**

We are offering excellent working conditions in a highly interdisciplinary and stimulating research environment.
