computational and/or experimental approaches in neuroscience The
position is jointly appointed at the Faculty of Natural Sciences,
OVGU, and includes teaching two semester periods per week in the
English-taught degree programs MSc Integrative Neuroscience and BSc
Biomedical Sciences. The successful candidate will establish and
lead a new research group at LIN focusing on experimental and
computational neuroscience or neuroengineering. The group is
expected to integrate strongly into the Magdeburg scientific
landscape through close collaboration with researchers at LIN,
OVGU, and other local institutions. The professorship will be
affiliated with the Institute of Biology at OVGU, which emphasizes
molecular neurobiology, systems and regulatory biology, learning
and memory, social and reproductive behavior, sensory and cognitive
neuroscience, and neuroprosthetics. Profile: We are seeking
outstanding candidates with experience in leading international
research teams and a strong record of acquiring third-party
funding. Applicants should be characterized by excellent
international publications, successful transfer activities, and a
clear scientific profile. Experience in supervising doctoral
students and supporting the career development of postdoctoral
researchers is required. A strong commitment to communicating
research findings to the broader public is highly desirable. The
successful candidate will actively contribute to LIN’s
interdisciplinary research programs Perception, Memory, and Action.
They are expected to develop innovative strategies that advance the
understanding the function of neural circuits and networks. Their
research should pioneer methodologies and concepts that enable new
insights from the extensive, multidimensional, and cross-species
experimental datasets generated at the institute and in the wider
field. Their research approach should inspire and initiate novel
experimental studies — guided by theoretical insights — that help
uncover fundamental mechanisms of learning, memory formation,
perception, and behavior. Researchers with a proven track record in
neuroengineering and related fields — including neuro-inspired
hardware, brain-machine interfaces, and the design of systems for
neural prostheses or interventions in neurological or
neuropsychiatric disorders — are also encouraged to apply. Formal
requirements include a habilitation or equivalent scientific
achievements in accordance with § 35(3) HSG-LSA. Benefits:
Remuneration follows the German W-salary scale at level W3 in
accordance with the Besoldungsgesetz Sachsen-Anhalt. The successful
candidate will be appointed as a permanent professor at OVGU (civil
servant or salaried employee) and will be granted leave of absence
to assume the position as a research group leader at the LIN.
