Sarah Loos

Postdoctoral position in Nonequilibrium Statistical Physics at the Max Planck Institute for Dynamics and Self-Organization in Göttingen, Germany. The research group led by Sarah Loos works on statistical physics beyond equilibrium , including active matter, glassy dynamics, memory effects in nonequilibrium systems, optimal control strategies for active matter, and non-reciprocal phase transitions. The group studies energy and entropy flows, dynamical features, and the relationship between thermodynamic and dynamic properties. Ideal applicants should have a strong background in theoretical physics , especially statistical physics , plus excellent analytical and mathematical skills and experience with scientific programming. Motivation and the ability to work independently are emphasized. Applicants should arrange for two reference letters to be sent directly to sarah.loos@ds.mpg.de . The post does not specify funding details or a deadline in the text provided. Relevant study keywords: nonequilibrium statistical physics, theoretical physics, statistical physics, active matter, glassy dynamics, memory effects, non-reciprocal phase transitions, scientific programming.
