We invite socio-environmental systems scientists to apply for a fully funded 3-month research stay at the Helmholtz Centre for Environmental Research, starting no earlier than April 1 and ending no later than October 31, 2019.

We are looking for a highly motivated post-doctoral researcher to join us at the department of Computational HydroSystems (CHS) at the UFZ (Leipzig, Germany) to work on the DFG-funded project “XEROS: eXtreme EuRopean drOughtS: Multimodel synthesis of past, present and future events”. XEROS is a part of a bilateral German-Czech project in collaboration with the Czech University of Life Sciences in Prague - CULS.

In the Department Urban and Environmental Sociology, we are looking for a motivated candidate who supports us in better understanding the consequences of the drought summer 2018 for farmers

The working group renewable energies is looking for a GIS expert

At the Department of Molecular Systems Biology we seek a motivated PhD-candidate

Within an application-oriented third-party fundeded project in collaboration with the University of Tübingen a new technology platform for the combined microbial and electrochemical synthesis of fuels/ fuel additives shall be established.
Based on the expertise of the research group (https://www.ufz.de/index.php?en=38424) and particularly based on the prework by Urban et al. (Energy Environ. Sci. 10 (10), 2231 - 2244) electroorganic synthesis in aqueous solutions will be elucidated, improved and engineered up to the liter-scale.
