Neuherberg near Munich
At Helmholtz Munich, we develop groundbreaking solutions for a healthier society in a rapidly changing world. We believe that diverse perspectives drive innovation. Through strong partnerships, we accelerate the transfer of new ideas from the lab to real-life applications, improving lives.
The Institute of Biological and Medical Imaging (IBMI) at Helmholtz Munich and the Chair of Biological Imaging (CBI) at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) are an integrated, multi-disciplinary research unit, which provide bioengineering solutions to urgent societal needs. IBMI scientists develop next-generation imaging and sensing methods to measure previously inaccessible properties of living systems, hence, catalyzing breakthroughs in biology, medicine, and the environment.
Comprising 13 inter-disciplinary laboratories and scientists from more than 25 countries, IBMI offers state-of-the-art infrastructure for innovative research and an ideal environment to accelerate your career.
We are now seeking a highly qualified and motivated PhD student (f/m/x) to drive the development of novel optical technologies addressing significant biological and medical challenges.
We are looking forward to receiving your comprehensive online application, including your letter of motivation, CV, and academic transcripts of records, preferably in English.
Your tasks
The successful candidate will play a key role in an ambitious research program focused on developing next‑generation multimodal imaging systems spanning the mesoscopic to microscopic scale. As part of a major research project and supported by extensive national and international collaborations, this effort seeks to shift the landscape of biological and medical imaging through pioneering, miniaturized, multimodal technologies. The candidate will have the opportunity to shape a rapidly evolving field by contributing to both technological innovation and high‑impact biological and medical applications.
Key Responsibilities & Goals:
- Develop a next‑generation system for quantitative, real-time multimodal mesoscopic and microscopic imaging.
- Contribute to real-time software development for system control, data acquisition, multimodal image reconstruction, and quantitative analysis workflows.
- Collaborate within a European research consortium and engage with international and national partners across multiple institutions.
- Drive innovation in the design and development of miniaturized imaging technologies.
Your profile
- M.Sc. in natural sciences, electrical engineering, physics, optics, medical technology, biomedical computing, or a related discipline.
- Experience with optics, fiber optics, sensors, miniaturized systems design and development.
- Programming skills in C++ and MATLAB; additional relevant programming skills are an advantage.
- Excellent track record of academic achievements.
- Strong motivation, scientific curiosity, and commitment to scientific excellence.
- Strong teamwork skills and enthusiasm to work in a multi-disciplinary, collaborative environment.
- Demonstrated writing skills.
- Excellent command of the English language.
This position provides the opportunity for you to build specialist knowledge whilst developing key professional experience, both of which will help you to make strides in your scientific career.
