Open positions for Master and PhD students

25. January 2016

We are currently looking for Master and PhD students with a major in physics, biophysics, biochemistry, or related fields. Projects involve the development and application of advanced high-performance molecular simulations at different scales to protein biophysical problems. Possible systems to be studied include mechano-sensing kinases and force transmission in membranes. 

The group is based at HITS in Heidelberg, and has strong ties to Heidelberg University, which offers attractive international graduate programmes.

If you are interested to join, please contact frauke.graeter@h-its.org

About HITS

HITS, the Heidelberg Institute for Theoretical Studies, was established in 2010 by physicist and SAP co-founder Klaus Tschira (1940-2015) and the Klaus Tschira Foundation as a private, non-profit research institute. HITS conducts basic research in the natural, mathematical, and computer sciences. Major research directions include complex simulations across scales, making sense of data, and enabling science via computational research. Application areas range from molecular biology to astrophysics. An essential characteristic of the Institute is interdisciplinarity, implemented in numerous cross-group and cross-disciplinary projects. The base funding of HITS is provided by the Klaus Tschira Foundation.
