The Max Planck Institute for the Physics of Complex Systems (MPI-PKS) seeks a

Distinguished PKS Postdoctoral Fellow

The successful candidate will complement research areas pursued at the institute and conduct indepen­dent studies e.g. in the following theoretical research fields: Ultra­cold gases and Rydberg physics, attosecond and ultra­fast X-ray physics, quantum optics, condensed matter theory, mole­cular electronics, correlated electrons and magnetism, quantum infor­mation theory, statistical physics far from equi­librium, nonlinear dynamics, bio­logical physics of cells and tissues, and quantitative biology. Novel directions with promising perspec­tives are also welcome.

The position can be commenced from January 2022. 

Distinguished PKS postdoctoral fellows appear personally along with the depart­ments and groups on the main research page of the insti­tute. Further details of research opportunities can be found on our website: http://www.pks.mpg.de/research.

The appointment is for two years, renewable for one more year.

Successful candidates are expected to have at least one year of post­doctoral experience at an institution other than the one at which their PhD was awarded. Appli­cations for this fellowship directly after completion of the PhD might be considered in exceptional cases.

To apply for the position, please fill the online application form http://www.pks.mpg.de/PKSFellow22 and upload your application package (cover letter, curriculum vitae, list of publi­cations, statement of research interests, and research proposal as well as the three most rele­vant publications) in one PDF file. Please also arrange for three letters of reference to be sub­mitted via http://www.pks.mpg.de/~visitors/reference.

Application deadline is November 24th, 2021.

In case of further questions regarding the appli­cation, please contact Dr. Michael Genkin via visitors@pks.mpg.de.

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.

Furthermore, the Max Planck Society seeks to increase the number of women in those areas where they are under­represented and therefore explicitly encourages women to apply.
