Every position below is supervised by an iMOL principal investigator and connects advanced microscopy with quantitative image analysis. Each project has its own page with the scientific background, the tasks and the profile we are looking for. Positions are offered in two ways: as part of the structured third cohort, which has one application deadline for all projects, and as individual positions in an iMOL group, which are filled as suitable candidates apply.

Further cohort projects are published here as they are released. To apply, send one PDF containing a cover letter that names the project or projects you are applying for, your CV, your transcripts and the names of two referees, by 15 November 2026 to imol.coordinator@biophysik.org, or directly to the contact named on the project page.

Applications for these two projects are reviewed as they arrive. Please send one PDF containing a cover letter that names the project you are applying for, your CV, your transcripts and the names of two referees to achilleas.frangakis@biophysik.org.
