Deadline: 10 sep 2020

At the University of Kassel, Institute of Mathematics – Analysis and Applied Mathematics (Prof. Dr. Friedmann) the following position is to be filled on October 1st, 2020: Research Assistant, EG 13 TV-H, a part-time position (75% of a full-time employee). The task will be to work on the development and implementation of advanced numerical methods for convection diffusion systems for pharmacological applications in ophthalmology. Our group is working with finite elements in deal.ii on the realization of (patho)physiological processes in the eye. The developed techniques are part of an interdisciplinary research project together with the Heidelberg University Eye Clinic and the David J. Apple International Laboratory for Ocular Pathology. Knowledge of finite element methods and prior software experience in deal.ii, C++ and parallel code development is required. Applicants must have a Doctorate in Mathematics, Computational Sciences or related fields.
