The research group mathematical statistics (Prof. A. Munk) at the Department of Mathematics and Computer
 Science of the University of G��ttingen is seeking to fill in a 

PostDoc Position
 "Mathematical Statistics in Nanoscale Fluorescence Microscopy"
(Salary group 13 TV-L, 39,8 h/week)

at the interface of mathematical statistics, inverse problems and biophysics. This position is located in
a new project A07 ���Statistical Inference for Molecules: How many, when and where?��� of the Collaborative
Research Center 755: ���Nanoscale photonic imaging���, which is a collaboration with the ���NanoBiophotonics��� 
lab (Prof. S. W. Hell) at the Max Planck Institute for Biophysical Chemistry. The position is limited for
two years initially with the possibility of an extension.

The aim of this project is to exploit the effect of photon antibunching in order to count molecules in 
sub-diffraction fluorescence microscopy for cell imaging. This allows then to render the distribution of 
biologically relevant proteins in the sample with nanoscale resolution, which is the ultimate aim in 
super-resolution microscopy. The successful candidate will develop a statistical model, algorithms to 
estimate and provide confidence statements for the number of molecules. This will be done in close 
collaboration with an interdisciplinary team of researchers from nanobiophotonics, mathematical 
statistics and inverse problems.

We are looking for talented, self-motivated individuals with a strong background in Mathematical 
Statistics, Inverse Problems, Theoretical Physics, Optics or a related field. Good programming skills and 
basic knowledge of (bio)physics is desirable. 

Please send your application with the usual documents (also in electronic form) until July 1st, 2015 to 
Prof. A. Munk, Georg-August-Universit��t G��ttingen, Institut f��r Mathematische Stochastik, Goldschmidtstr. 7,
37077 G��ttingen, email: munk a math.uni-goettingen.de

The University of G��ttingen is an equal opportunities employer and places particular emphasis on fostering 
career opportunities for women. Qualified women are therefore strongly encouraged to apply as they are 
underrepresented in this field. Disabled persons with equivalent aptitude will be favored.

For further requests please contact Prof. A. Munk or Dr. Frank Werner, Max Planck Institute for Biophysical 
Chemistry, Research group ���Statistical Inverse Problems in Biophysics���, phone: +49 551 201-1628, email: 
Frank.Werner a mpibpc.mpg.de

We request that you send us copies of your application documents. We will destroy the documents after a 
holding period of five months. It will only be returned if a sufficiently prepaid and addressed envelope 
is enclosed.
