7 PhD scholarships in Computational Neuroscience (Germany)
The Research Training Group Sensory Computation in Neural Systems combines techniques and concepts from computational neuroscience, systems neurobiology, and machine learning, in order to specifically address sensory computation. Experimentalists and theoreticians join forces and educate young scientists: (1) to work on interdisciplinary projects investigating brain computation, (2) to exploit recent advances in machine learning and artificial intelligence […]
PhD scholarship in Biology/Biophysics: Micro MRI during brain inflammation (Germany)
Ultrahigh field MRI has evolved rapidly over the past decade, feeding new applications across a broad spectrum of clinical and research areas. One of the research highlights of our group is to apply brain inflammation models to study neurodegenerative disorders with an inflammatory component such as multiple sclerosis (MS), not only to further unravel the […]
PhD scholarship in Numerical Analysis of Die Swell (Aachen, Germany)
Profile extrusion is a manufacturing process for continuous plastic profiles, such as pipes or window panes. The highest design effort is caused by the extrusion die, which, at the current state of the art, has to be designed based on experience and running-in experiments. One of the key properties of plastics melts are their viscoelastic […]

PhD scholarship-Polymer/Colloid Science: High performance BioMimetic Materials (Germany)
We offer an attractive position for a PhD thesis within an interdisciplinary research environment, combining high-performance biological materials with bio-mimetic concepts and materials science applications. The project focuses on the utilization of nanocellulose and nanochitin fibers, which are among the strongest and stiffest natural materials (natural steel or Kevlar). These fibers are nowadays available by […]
Peut-on concevoir qu’à un moment donner de l’histoire, le peuple blanc a eu une supériorité technologique sur le peuple noir?
La réponse à cette question se voudrait simple, claire et nette. Mais, de nombreuses considérations nous amènent à réfléchir par deux fois, quitte à formuler des doutes sur le point de vue des uns et des autres. Pour l’historien Jean-Philippe Omutunde, il ne fait guère de doute que L’Occident a tiré toute sa richesse intellectuelle […]
International Scholarship for PhD-Students: Multi-Functional Filters for Metal Melt Filtration – A Contribution towards Zero Defect Materials
There exists an increasing pressure on the metal-making and metal using industry to remove solid and liquid inclusions such as deoxidation products, sul.des, nitrides carbides etc. and thereby improve metal cleanliness. It is well known that size, type and distribution of non- metallic inclusions in metal experts considerable effects on the mechanical properties of the […]
