(Nicht durch den englischen Text abschrecken lassen!!! Korrespondenz 
geht natürlich auch in deutscher Sprache.)

Applications are invited for two full-time positions for Research 
Fellows (BAT IIa according to the German public pay scale) within the 
project A4 "Towards a Mathematics of Biomolecular Flexibility" at the FU 
Berlin respectively project A13 "Meshless Methods for the Chemical 
Master Equation" at the Zuse Institute Berlin. These are temporary 
positions for one year (extension possible). The successful A4 applicant 
is expected to work mathematically in computational statistical
thermodynamics with special emphasis on high dimensional continuous 
processes and Monte Carlo methods therein. The successful A13 applicant 
will work mathematically in computational polymer chemistry or systems 
biology, respectively, with special emphasis on discrete Galerkin 
methods. Meshfree basis functions will play an important role in both 
projects. The development and integration of simulation and 
discretization algorithms into a virtual lab will be necessary to be 
able to tackle real-world processes. A degree in mathematics equivalent 
to the German university diploma (e.g. M.Sc.) is required. High degree 
of academic competence (above-average or PhD) will be expected. 
Applicants must exhibit a thorough knowledge in numerical analysis. 
Familiarity with interdisciplinary modelling as well as theory and 
numerics of partial differential equations (A13) or force field methods 
(A4) is desirable. Programming skills in C++ are required.

Please send your written application together with a curriculum vitae 
and copies of the relevant certificates quoting the reference number 
FZT-A4/A13-07 until September 14, 2007 to the following address:

Freie Universität Berlin
