About this position

PhD Candidate in Immunophysics at the Chair of Mathematics in Life Science at Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg and the Division of Immunophysics at the Max Planck Center for Physics and Medicine.

The research environment uses statistical physics, complex-systems approaches, and mathematical modeling to investigate emerging problems in biology and medicine. Potential research directions include infections associated with bacterial biofilms, autoimmunity, and autoinflammation, with the broader goal of developing quantitative methods for understanding biological and medical phenomena.

The doctoral researcher will join an interdisciplinary setting at the medical campus in Erlangen, where the Max Planck Center for Physics and Medicine supports close collaboration among physicists, mathematicians, biologists, medical researchers, interdisciplinary groups, and clinical researchers. The chair works at the interface of theoretical physics, applied mathematics, biological physics, and computational approaches to life-science questions.

Doctoral candidates may also enroll in the International Max Planck Research School “Physics from Light to Life,” providing an additional structured research and training environment.

Funding details

Full-time temporary employment at 40 hours per week, paid according to TV-L E 13, with regular promotion to the next level, salary increases under the collective bargaining agreement, and an additional annual bonus. Benefits include occupational pension and asset-accumulation schemes, 30 days of annual leave plus additional December holidays, and other institutional benefits. The position runs until December 31, 2027.

What's required

Applicants should have expertise in theoretical, statistical, mathematical, and/or biological physics, applied mathematics, or computer science, together with a strong interest in biology or medicine and enthusiasm for interdisciplinary work. Applications must include a cover letter, curriculum vitae, publication list, statement of research interests, and at least two reference letters.
