PhD and Postdoctoral Positions in Functional NeuroImaging, RWTH Aachen, Germany
The Interdisciplinary Center for Clinical Research IZKF “BIOMAT.” at the RWTH Aachen University invites applications for the Position of a Post-doctoral and PhD positions for functional neuroimaging.
The RWTH Aachen University is the leading technical University in Germany. Its medical faculty has a focus on functional neuroimaging in neuro-psychiatric disorders. A research-dedicated 3T MR scanner (Siemens Tim Trio) plus a 3T and two 1.5T Achieva systems (Phillips) are set into the clinical and international research environment. Positions are available to promote methodological excellence.
Topics can be suggested but could encompass fast 3d functional imaging with 32-channel parallel imaging, functional spectroscopy, artefact-compensated functional imaging, and real-time fMRI with
neurofeedback. Supervision can be provided also in cooperation with imaging sites in Jülich, Maastricht, and London. The post-doc position is envisioned to head the functional imaging unit of the IZKF. MR physicians with pulse programming experience are preferred; however also other applicants with interest in method development for MR and functional imaging will be considered.
For informal inquiries and further information contact the technical coordinator Prof. Klaus Mathiak (kmathiak[ at ]ukaachen.de or +49 241 80 89640).
The RWTH Aachen encourages the employment of women. Qualified women are therefore especially invited to apply.
Handicapped applicants are favourably considered in the case of equal qualification
Applications (English/German) must include a full CV and name and address of two references and should be submitted by mail to:

The Netherlands: Postdoc Positions in Quantum Information Processing with Superconducting Circuits, Delft University of Technology
Postdoc Positions in Quantum Information Processing with Superconducting Circuits, Kavli Institute of Nanoscience, Delft University of Technology, Delft, The Netherlands
In Delft we have developed superconducting flux quantum bits. These nanofabricated qubits behave as quantum two-level systems, their coherence time can be microseconds while they can be operated in nanoseconds. Very recently we have developed dispersive readout that allows quantum non-demolition measurement. We also very recently have realized a controlled-NOT gate for two qubits. However, many fundamental questions remain to be answered and many practical aspects need improvement. In the near future we will improve control of the qubits and study entanglement and temporal correlations, back-action of the measurement process, interaction with a harmonic oscillator, the optimal lay-out for a practical multi-qubit quantum information processor. We also want to investigate new designs such as the phase-slip qubit.
Our team at present consists of three senior investigators Hans Mooij, Kees Harmans and Ad Verbruggen (materials aspects), two post-docs and four PhD students. We are part of the Quantum Transport Group where also quantum dot spin qubits and nanowires are investigated. We are members of the FOM concentration group Delft-Leiden on Solid State Quantum Information and the Kavli Institute of Nanoscience. In the EU-supported integrated project EuroSQIP we collaborate intensively with European groups. Within EuroSQIP we have three post-doc positions available.
We are interested in candidates with experience in experimental research on low temperature solid state nanocircuits, quantum optics or trapped atoms/ions, with an interest in nanofabrication. We may consider hiring a theory post-doc with strong interest in experimental manipulation and measurement, for a limited period. The main focus for a new post-doc will be defined in accordance with his/her interest and the needs of the project.
Information is available on the QT website http://kavli.nano.tudelft.nl, from Kees Harmans (c.j.p.m.harmans[ at ]tudelft.nl, tel. +31 15 2785195) and from Hans Mooij (j.e.mooij[ at ]tudelft.nl, tel. +31 15 2786153).
