About this position

The research group of Prof. Dr. Dr. h.c. Frank Schreiber at the University of Tübingen is working on the physics of molecular and biological matter using X-ray and neutron scattering for structure and dynamics of these systems. For more information, see www.soft-matter.uni-tuebingen.de .

Currently we are looking for a post-doctoral researcher to perform state-of-art X-ray and neutron scattering experiments on various soft-matter systems.

Your tasks

  • development of the X-ray and neutron scattering techniques to study the structure and dynamics of proteins in solutions
  • preparation of and participation in X-ray scattering experiments at world leading large-scale facilities for neutrons (ILL in Grenoble, ESS in Lund) and X-rays (PETRA III and EuXFEL in Hamburg, ESRF in Grenoble and others)
  • analysis of the experimental data, ideally connecting to our machine learning tools
  • presentation of scientific results on conferences and in publications
  • supervision of PhD, master and bachelor students

Applications should be accompanied by a cover letter describing motivation, skills and any special achievements. Furthermore, a CV and a transcript of records should be added. The position is to be filled immediately.

The deadline for the application is 31.10.2026. Please send your application in one PDF file to softmatter@ifap.uni-tuebingen.de .
