Applications are invited for a two year postdoc position in Physics-informed Model Discovery for Reaction-Diffusion Equations at Roskilde University, Denmark, from the 1st of February, 2026, or soon after.

We want to tackle the challenge of model discovery for mathematical models of reaction diffusion type in biology. A combination of analytical properties and domain decomposition techniques will be included in machine learning algorithm for model discovery, providing hypotheses for scientific discussions to applied partners.

Applications will be considered on a rolling basis, and the position will be filled as soon as a suitable candidate is found.

We are inviting applications the position of full professor in the area of stress resilience of plants, to be filled by October 1, 2026.

The professorship will be embedded in the area of plant molecular physiology, focusing on plant resilience. Biological core research areas in Aachen are the Integrated Bioeconomy, Stress Resilience and Computational Life Science. We thus search for a candidate who works at the intersection of cellular or molecular plant physiology and a biological question related to bioeconomy. A focus on plant resilience will be explored (e.g., acclimation or adaptation to biotic or abiotic stresses). Research approaches may combine ecophysiological, molecular biological/genetic, and biochemical methods.

We place particular emphasis on interdisciplinary collaborations within the faculty, with other faculties within the university and with Forschungszentrum Jülich and the Fraunhofer Institute for Molecular Biology and Applied Ecology IME. We encourage involvement in the Bioeconomy Science Center (BioSC).

We expect that the successful candidate continues to develop an already strong, original, and internationally visible research profile, enabling acquisition of competitive external funds. Teaching tasks comprise theoretical and practical education in plant physiology and the biology of resilience in the B.Sc./M.Sc. courses of study of Aachen Biology and Biotechnology, including contribution to general plant biological teaching in these courses of study. Involvement in academic self-administration is also expected.

The requirements include a doctoral degree and additional research experience, such as a habilitation (post-doctoral lecturing qualification) or equivalent achievements gained as a university researcher or professor or in a research position outside academia. Teaching ability and dedication are essential and the application should include proof of this. Fluent German is not required to start the position but the successful candidate will be expected to hold classes in German within the first 5 years.

Dear colleagues,

We would like to announce the third edition of the workshop on "Modelling Diffusive Systems: Theory and Applications" (MoDiS), which will take place at the Erwin Schrödinger Institute (ESI) in Vienna during the week 26-30 January 2026.

The list of speakers and the preliminary schedule are both available on the workshop website (https://sites.google.com/view/modis2026/home-page). 

There is a limited number of spots for additional participants - priority will be given to early-career researchers who are also encouraged to present a poster. 

In order to apply, please fill out the registration form (available at https://sites.google.com/view/modis2026/registration) by September 15.

We look forward to seeing you in Vienna!

Best,

The meeting continues the annual conference series (MPDE/MPDEE) which started in 2007. It will consider applications of mathematical modelling to explore processes and mechanisms in various biological systems ranging from a cell to the human society. A special focus will be on the interplay between ecology and evolution across time and space, in particular under the effect of climate change. 

MPDEE’26 is also expected to explore similarities between modelling techniques traditionally applied in ecology and evolution and those used in other life sciences with the purpose to enhance interdisciplinary approaches and to stimulate further advances in population dynamics, ecology and evolution.

For more details, including important deadlines and registration fees, please visit the conference website at https://dbearup.github.io/mpdee26/

Collective cell migration and pattern formation are entwined phenomena of immense fascination. Development, tissue repair and disease progression all involve coordination between cell movements, growth, and intercellular signalling processes. 

The aim of this workshop is to draw together state of the art techniques within (i) the biological mechanisms that underpin processes of collective cell migration and pattern formation, (ii) the mathematical and computational models used to study these phenomena, and (iii) the analytical tools that can be used to unlock core properties contained within these models.
