Berlin, Berlin, Deutschland Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik Vollzeit


Mathematics Research Associate (f/m/d)
  • Full Time
  • With Professional Experience

The Weierstrass Institute for Applied Analysis and Stochastics (WIAS) is a prominent institution within the Forschungsverbund Berlin e.V. (FVB), which consists of several non-university research entities in Berlin, supported by both federal and state funding. The institutes are affiliated with the Leibniz Association.

WIAS is seeking applications for a Mathematics Research Associate (f/m/d)

in the Research Group

"Partial Differential Equations"

(Acting Head: Dr. M. Liero) to commence work as soon as feasible.

Field of Work: This role focuses on modeling utilizing partial differential equations (PDEs) along with their analytical assessment. Candidates should possess proficiency in PDE analysis through variational techniques, including gradient-flow formulation, Gamma-convergence, and scaling laws. There is a particular emphasis on biomechanics-related challenges, such as mechanical interactions and pattern formation in hydrogels or biomembranes. The position also entails the implementation of numerical discretizations and conducting simulation studies in partnership with external collaborators.

Candidate Profile: We are in search of a dedicated and exceptional researcher holding a Ph.D. in mathematics, ideally nearing completion. The applicant should be prepared to undertake responsibilities in interdisciplinary projects alongside external collaborators from fields such as physics, biology, or engineering. A keen interest in applied mathematics, particularly applied analysis, along with a robust background in at least three of the following areas is essential:

  • Analysis of nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs),
  • Calculus of Variations,
  • Variational methods for multi-scale problems,
  • Consistent modeling in continuum mechanics,
  • Pattern formation and phase transitions.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Conduct research leading to publications in reputable international journals,
  • Present findings at international conferences and workshops,
  • Engage in interdisciplinary collaboration with partners.

What We Offer:

  • Comprehensive mentorship: The postdoctoral candidate will receive attentive and responsible guidance, fostering a healthy mentor-mentee relationship.
  • WIAS Berlin is recognized as a leading research institution, particularly in optimization, optimal control, dynamical systems, and applied mathematics.
  • A certified family-friendly work environment.
  • Berlin is a culturally rich and diverse international city, offering numerous opportunities for enjoyment outside of work while remaining affordable compared to other major cities. Proficiency in German is not a requirement for the job or living in Berlin, although WIAS provides free German language courses. We warmly welcome international applications. Berlin boasts a vibrant research landscape with ample opportunities in both academia and industry.

Application Process: Interested candidates should submit complete application documents, including a cover letter, curriculum vitae, certificates, and a copy of their Ph.D. thesis (or relevant publications) through our online job application platform.

We look forward to receiving your application.
