Beschreibung
The Quantum Biology and Computational Physics Group (Department of Physics) at the University of Oldenburg offers
as soon as possible

one PhD-position (M/F/d)
(TV-L E13 / 65%)

in the research project "Cryptochrome-based magnetoreception".

The employment is initially limited to three years with an intention for further prolongation and should lead to a successful dissertation.

The project is part of the DFG funded SFB 1372 "Magnetoreception and navigation in vertebrates:
from biophysics to brain and behaviour".


The overall aim of the project is to carry out quantum spin dynamics simulations to guide behavioural studies and calcium imaging measurements of neuronal activity delivered through other projects of SFB 1372.

The project aims to determine the optimum radiofrequency electromagnetic field conditions for probing the identity and magnetic properties of radicals in a cryptochrome magnetoreceptor in vivo.

The project will also employ an information theory approach in combination with spin dynamics simulations to understand how a light-dependent magnetoreceptor could distinguish changes in light intensity from changes in magnetic field direction.

Applicants with disabilities will be given preference in case of equal qualification.
