   Job description:
   Applications are invited for a PhD position at the
   Institute for Theoretical Physics, Frankfurt University,
   with a TV-G-U E13 salary (50%), equivalent
   to about 1000 Euro monthly.

   The general focus of the research group is the development
   of the theory of complex and cognitive systems:
   generating principles, functionality and control.

   The field of research for the announced PhD position
   involves the study of information routing models,
   a novel class of dynamical network models.

   The candidates should  have a Diploma/Master in
   physics with an excellent academic track record
   and good computational skills. Experience or strong interest
   in the fields of complex systems and/or artificial or biological
   cognitive systems is expected. The degree of scientific
   research experience is expected to be on the level of a
   German Diploma/Master.

   The appointments will start fall 2012, for
   up to three years.

   Interested applicants should submit a curriculum vitae,
   a list of publications and arrange for two letters of
   reference to be sent to the address below.
