PhD Position in Physics: next-generation MINFLUX optical instrumentation (f/m/x)

The Department of Prof. Dr. Stefan W. Hell invites applications for a PhD position at the intersection of optics, molecules and biophysics. Opportunities are available in 骋枚迟迟颈苍驳别苍 or Heidelberg for motivated physicists who are interested in working in a world-leading research group. The candidate can apply for admission to the Max Planck School of Photonics or the 骋枚迟迟颈苍驳别苍 Graduate Center for Neurosciences, Biophysics, and Molecular Biosciences (GGNB).

The MINFLUX and MINSTED concepts have unlocked the door to minimally invasive, low-light-level analysis of the structure and dynamics of macromolecules at the nanometer scale. This includes experiments at 1鈥憂m resolution and with Angstr枚m measurement precision. The successful candidate will work on next-generation MINFLUX optical instrumentation.
