1. 3-5 Fully Funded PhD Position in Molecular Medicine
Summary of PhD Program:
We currently have 3–5 open positions for doctoral researchers starting in August 2025 as part of the FIMM-EMBL International PhD Programme. In this interdisciplinary programme, outstanding doctoral researchers are recruited at the institute level in the scope of the main research areas at FIMM. Through the FIMM-EMBL rotation system, doctoral researchers engage in projects with 2–3 different research groups during a 6–9-month period prior to selecting a research group for their doctoral research. The program provides an exciting opportunity to explore and combine different research areas as well as to learn a variety of scientific skills and technologies while making connections within and beyond the institute.
Application Deadline: 7.2.2025
2. Fully Funded PhD Position in Geochemical signatures of fluids in lavas from divergent plate boundaries
Summary of PhD Program:
This doctoral project (DC2) focuses on analyzing fluid geochemical signatures in lavas from active back-arc and ophiolitic environments. The candidate will develop expertise in geochemical analysis of melt and fluid inclusions, integrating new data with existing datasets and databases on in situ fluid trace element analysis. The ideal candidate should have a strong interest in fundamental research in high-temperature geochemistry and petrology, with a particular focus on advancing analytical techniques in geochemistry. The University of Bremen and the GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research Kiel are involved in the project, and research stays there are anticipated.
Application Deadline: 31.1.2025

3. Fully Funded PhD Position in Silicic magmas in Precambrian ophiolites & modern divergent plate boundaries
Summary of PhD Program:
This doctoral project (DC4) deals with the characteristics, melt evolution, and fluid fluxes of plagiogranite-ferrogabbro suites in Precambrian ophiolites with comparison to modern counterparts, in pursuit of models for silicic magma formation in oceanic environments through time. The candidate will gain expertise in whole-rock Sr-Nd-Pb-Hf and zircon U-Pb-Hf-O isotope geochemistry as well as fluid inclusion analysis. The ideal candidate should have a strong interest in fundamental research in high-temperature geochemistry and petrology, with a particular focus on advancing analytical techniques in geochemistry. The GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research Kiel is involved in the project, and research stays there are anticipated.
