Research with neutrons, with its interdisciplinary approach, is indispensable for modern science.
Taking into consideration tremendous changes in the European neutron landscape and assuming responsibility for sustainability, the neutron community is nowadays facing an important task to ensure long-term perspectives, that essentially depend on its ability to create a new generation of innovative highly skilled researchers.
To tackle this challenge, Forschungszentrum Jülich (FZJ), Technical University Munich (TUM), and Helmholtz- Zentrum Hereon (Hereon), partners at the Heinz Maier-Leibnitz Zentrum (MLZ), are running the Marie Sklodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) COFUND project " Global Neu tron Scientists" (GNeuS) ( https://GNeuS.eu ) that trains young neutron scientists through the establishment of a well-structured post-doctoral research program with a strong interdisciplinary and intersectoral approach and global outreach.
Within GNeuS, postdoc grants are offered to solve the grand challenges facing mankind in areas such as environment, energy, key technologies, and life science as well as improve the existing instrumentation and the ancillary equipment and developing new sources or optimizing the existing ones.
During the five-year project lifetime and three calls, the three MLZ Partners offer a total of 45 fellowships each with a duration of 24 months.
The three GNeuS MLZ partners are offering 15 GNeuS Postdoc Positions in Neutron Science of 24 months each (full-time job)
