SUMMARY:Postdoc (2 yrs) Soft Matter Simulation in Tübingen\, Germany
DESCRIPTION:We announce an open postdoc position in the field of computational soft matter\nmodelling\, associated to the group of Computational Nanoscience / Colloid Physics\n(Prof. Oettel\, PD Schöpe).\nThe successful candidate is expected to conduct independent research in broad relation\nto the experimental activities in nanoscience in Tübingen (Interdisciplinary nanoBCP Lab).\nPossible working areas include phase behavior and dynamic transistions in systems of\ndesigned colloids (Schöpe group)\, collective\nbehavior of proteins (Schreiber/Zhang group)\, or coarse-grained modelling of motor proteins\n(E. Schäffer group). \nQualifications and experience:\n* PhD in  physics\, biophysics or physical chemistry with a focus on theory and modeling.\n* Strong background in theoretical soft matter and associated simulation methods.\n* Knowledge of standard methods (Molecular Dynamics and Monte Carlo). \nThe position is for 2 years\, salary according to the collective agreement in public service\n(TV-L 13\, initial stage depending on experience). Applications from women and persons with\ndisabilities are particularly encouraged.\nStarting date is flexible (ideally between May 2020 and September 2020). \nFurther information can be obtained by contacting Prof. Martin Oettel\n(martin.oettel@uni-tuebingen.de). Please submit your application\n(CV\, motivation + one-page research statement\, names of 2 referees) in one .pdf file\nto martin.oettel@uni-tuebingen.de. Deadline is March 30\, 2020\, applications thereafter\nwill be considered until the position is filled.

SUMMARY:PhD position at the  Institut Laue-Langevin on Foam Characterization
DESCRIPTION:Foams structures are ubiquitous and of high technical relevance. Their understanding and control of their properties is a fundamental aspect of very diverse areas of research: from separation chemistry (foam flotation)\, to detergency\, firefighting\, to the production of multi-scaled materials (solid foams for catalysis or thermal and sound insulation). The properties of foams are intimately linked to their structure and physico-chemical properties. Bubble size and bubble size distribution\, viscosity of the liquid within the foam\, as well as the presence of nanostructure in the liquid film have a profound impact on the foam properties. Thus\, the characterization of the interactions at the liquid/gas interface and between facing interface at a molecular and macroscopic scale is of outermost importance for the understanding of foams and for their subsequent application in the different domains. \nResearch Project The project consists of two phases. In the first one\, the commercial Foamscan apparatus will be adapted to be employed at small-angle neutron scattering beamlines. This step\, in cooperation with the producer\, Teclis-Scientific\, will allow the simultaneous determination of the macroscopic foam properties (bubble size\, bubble size distribution) and the investigation of its structure at the nanometer scale. The second part will be dedicated to the investigation of foams based on PolyOxoMetalates\, a class of very large ions\, which may serve simultaneously as foam stabilizers and complexating agents for the recovery of valuable metal ions\, such as lanthanides and others transition metals (Mo\, V\, W\, Ta …).\nThe project results from a cooperation of the Institut Laue-Langevin and the Institut de Chimie Separative de Marcoule (ICSM)\, a joint research unit involving the CEA\, the CNRS\, the University of Montpellier and the National Graduate School in Chemistry of Montpellier (www.icsm.fr) and TECLIS Scientific (www.teclis-scientific.com)\, french industrial company specialises in measuring instruments for interface science. The position will be located at the Institut Laue-Langevin\, Grenoble. However the project foresees some working periods of few months at ICSM in Avignon area\, few weeks at Teclis-Scientific in Lyon. The student will be employed under generous conditions by the ILL\, with a gross salary of approximately 2400 €/month in addition to numerous benefits (see employment conditions) at ). We are seeking for motivated candidates with a very good MSc/diploma in physical chemistry and physics (or a related field) and ideally some previous expertise in foam characterization or colloid/polymer science. As data analysis represents an important aspect of the project\, previous knowledge or willingness to learn programming languages such as Python or C are a strong asset. \nFor more information please contact Dr. Olivier Diat (olivier.diat@cea.fr\,) or Dr. Leonardo Chiappisi (chiappisil@ill.eu). Applications including a motivation letter should be sent by email with the reference “PhD project201_23” in the subject.

SUMMARY:International Conference 2020: “Motile Active Matter”
DESCRIPTION:Dear Colleague\, \nWe are very happy to announce the International Conference \n“Motile Active Matter”\, \norganized by the DFG Priority Program on “Microswimmers – From Single Particle Motion to Collective Behavior” \nto take place on March 30 – April 02\, 2020 at Forschungszentrum caesar in Bonn\, Germany. \nThe motility of cells and microorganisms is a cornerstone of the existence of life and an outstanding achievement of evolution. From a physics perspective\, active matter is a novel class of nonequilibrium materials composed of a large number of agents\, which consume energy and generate directed motion. Length and time scales range from nanomotors and microswimmers and single cells up to fish\, birds and humans. Unraveling\, predicting\, and controlling the behavior of active matter is a truly interdisciplinary endeavor\, and involves scientists from biology\, chemistry\, ecology\, engineering\, mathematics\, and physics. \nThe conference will bring together scientists from the various disciplines involved in research on active matter\, disseminating recent progresses and highlighting future challenges. Topics include: \n\nCells and Microorganisms\n• Artificial and Biological Microswimmers\n• Collective Behavior\n• Sensing and Navigation\n• Confinement and External Fields\n• Statistical Mechanics of Active Matter\n\nThe conference will include invited and contributed talks as well as posters. \nYou can find more information on the conference website: \nhttps://www.fz-juelich.de/ics/ics-2/EN/Leistungen/SPP1726/International-Conference-2020/_node.html \nBest regards\, \nGerhard Gompper \n  \n[On behalf of the organizers: Gerhard Gompper\, Clemens Bechinger\, Stephan Herminghaus\, U.
