Open postdoctoral position

The Faculty of Mathematics at the University of Göttingen in 2004 has
established a PhD program on
Identification in Mathematical Models: Synergy of Stochastic and
Numerical Methods.

This research training group (Graduiertenkolleg) is supported by the
Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG). From January 1st, 2009, a
two-year postdoctoral research position is available, subject to the
final approval of the extension of the PhD programm by the Deutsche
Forschungsgemeinschaft.

The research program includes statistical inverse problems in imaging
and in biometrics, kernel based and robust identification methods and
identification problems in partial differential equations. The topics
cover a broad range connecting theoretical mathematical problems,
application relevant problems from numerical analysis and statistics,
and interdisciplinary projects in collaboration with members of other
sciences.
Further information on the research and teaching program and, in
particular, on the participating research groups can be found on
http://www.num.math.uni-goettingen.de/gk

The University of Göttingen is aiming at increasing the portion of women
among the young researchers.

Application should be send before October 31st, 2008, to the director of
the program,
Prof. Dr. Rainer Kress
Institut für Numerische und Angewandte Mathematik
Georg-August-Universität Göttingen
Lotzestr. 16-18, 37083 Göttingen.

In addition to the curriculum vitae, copies of relevant academic
transcripts or university degrees and two letters of recommendation, the
applications should contain specifications on the intended direction of
research within the PhD program and preferences for one of the research
groups.
