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 materials using X-ray and neutron scattering for structure and dynamics of these systems. The main research areas are novel photovoltaic materials, proteins in solutions, and complex nano-structured materials. Furthermore, we develop advanced scattering methods and machine learning tools for data analysis. For more information, see www.soft-matter.uni-tuebingen.de Qualification and skills Candidates should have good communication skills and motivation to familiarize themselves with new subject areas. Both working independently and working in a team, e.g. during the measurement campaigns, is particularly demanding. Knowledge of programming languages such as Python is an advantage.
