Research Assistant - 0.75 working time

The Collaborative Research Centre CRC 1294 “Data Assimilation – The seamless integration of data and models” develops solutions and mathematical theories for assimilating time-dependent data sets into complex evolution models. Data assimilation constitutes a rapidly expanding field of research at the confluence of mathematics, statistics, and machine learning, on the one hand, and applications from the natural sciences and other disciplines. The CRC 1294 offers an excellent research infrastructure with a large interdisciplinary network of researchers, its own graduate school, and funding opportunities for conference attendance, summer schools, hosting international experts, etc.

Research in the field of statistics of stochastic partial differential equations (SPDE), in particular stochastic reaction diffusion systems, applications to statistical inference on data from intracellular reaction-diffusion kinetics, in project A01 "Statistics for SPDEs" within the CRC 1294 Data Assimilation (see http://www.uni-potsdam.de/de/sfb1294.html).
PhD thesis preparation is possible.

More information can be obtained from Prof. Dr. Wilhelm Stannat (stannat@math.tu-berlin.de).

• Successfully completed university degree (Master's, Diploma, or equivalent) in mathematics or closely related disciplines
• Solid knowledge in Stochastic Analysis
• Good German and/or English skills required; willingness to acquire the necessary language skills
• Additional knowledge of the theory of partial differential equations or nonlinear evolution equations are desirable
