PhD Student (f/m/d) for RTG Supracolloidal Structures - from Materials to Optical and Electronic Components

With cutting-edge research in the fields of ENERGY, HEALTH and MATTER, around 1,500 employees from more than 70 nations at Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR) are committed to mastering the great challenges facing society today.

At the Institute of Radiopharmaceutical Cancer Research scientists (f/m/d) from the fields of physics, chemistry, biology, pharmacy, immunology, medicine and IT develop innovative radiopharmaceuticals and novel tools for functional characterization, improved imaging and personalized treatment of tumors.

The Department of Department Life Science Nanomicrosystems is looking for a PhD Student (f/m/d). The position is announced in frames of Research Training Group "Supracolloidal Structures: From Materials to Optical and Electronic Components" (GRK 2767) at Technische Universität Dresden. GRK 2767 aims to train a new generation of experts who will design materials made of supracolloidal structures from the drawing board to application in components. The German Research Foundation (DFG) is funding the project.

In the course of the application procedure, which takes place both at the GRK 2767 of the TU Dresden and at the HZDR, the documents received by the HZDR will be forwarded to the GRK 2767. With your application you agree to this forwarding. It serves to ensure the greatest possible transparency of all incoming applications.
