1. Fully Funded PhD Position in Quantum Simulation Theory
Summary of PhD Program:
We welcome applications for postdoctoral and doctoral positions in the field of theoretical quantum simulation. Successful candidates will join Dr. Torsten V. Zache’s newly established research group at the Technical University of Munich. Our group focuses on the theoretical development and application of quantum technologies to fundamental physics. The advertised positions are part of the project “QS-Gauge: Quantum Simulation of Lattice Gauge Theories,” funded by the DFG’s Emmy Noether Program. The goal of the project is the development of digital quantum algorithms for simulating non-Abelian lattice gauge theories.
Application Deadline: Open until filled
2. Fully Funded PhD Position in Machine Learning for Molecular Simulations
Summary of PhD Program:
The Multiscale Modeling of Fluid Materials group at the Technical University of Munich is looking for talented and ambitious scientists interested in unique interdisciplinary research, integrating molecular simulations, machine learning, statistical physics, multiscale modeling, and uncertainty quantification. The successful applicant will work on molecular dynamics simulations, where molecular interactions are predicted by neural network potentials.

3. Fully Funded PhD Position in Mobility Data
Summary of PhD Program:
We are working on one of the most important challenges of our time: The CASE megatrends (Connected, Autonomous, Shared, Electric) are fundamentally changing human mobility. In the future, we must rely more heavily on digital, sustainable, and shared solutions to meet our transport demand. As one of the 14 future clusters of the Federal Ministry of Education and Research, MCube is designed to implement these megatrends in metropolitan areas.
Application Deadline: Open until filled
4. Fully Funded PhD Position in Evolution of Chemoreception in Parasitoids
Summary of PhD Program:
The PhD candidate will investigate the chemoreception networks involved in CHC perception, particularly in the context of prezygotic reproductive isolation within a species complex of parasitoid wasps (Nasonia). Our previous research has already deciphered the patterns of sexual attractiveness in Nasonia CHC profiles. Expanding on this foundation, the PhD candidate will employ a suite of advanced techniques—single-sensillum recording (SSR), gas-chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC-MS), electro-antennographic detection (EAD), RNAi knockdowns, and behavioral olfactometer assays—to elucidate how divergence in CHC perception has potentially contributed to prezygotic reproductive isolation.

5. Fully Funded PhD Position in Software for Quantum Control
Summary of PhD Program:
Are you looking for an opportunity to shape the future of quantum computing? With superconducting quantum computers on the verge, we aim to strengthen our research team at the Technical University of Munich in collaboration with the Walther-Meißner-Institute of the Bavarian Academy of Sciences and Humanities and open a PhD researcher position for a quantum control software and machine learning expert.
Application Deadline: Open until filled
6. Fully Funded PhD Position in molecular plant pathology
Summary of PhD Program:
Our group focuses on the role of RAC/ROP GTPase-mediated signaling at the plant–fungus interface and its contribution to cellular changes that facilitate the establishment of the powdery mildew Blumeria hordei in the cereal crop barley. Particularly in this project, we are interested in better understanding the molecular functions of RIC proteins, which have been identified as downstream interactors of barley RAC/ROP GTPases.

7. Fully Funded PhD Position in Generative Engine Optimization
Summary of PhD Program:
Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) is an emerging practice that aims to increase a brand’s visibility in content generated by AI models – much like SEO does for traditional search. As AI-powered “answer engines” (eg ChatGPT, Google’s Search Generative Experience) gain popularity, users increasingly get direct, synthesized answers instead of just links. This shift requires content creators and businesses to adapt.
