There will be several postdoc positions available in the near future in algebraic or arithmetic geometry in Mainz.
At the Mainz branch of the DFG-funded collaborative Research Center SFB-TRR 45 "Periods, Moduli Spaces, and the Arithmetic of Algebraic Varieties" a number of post-doc positions will be available in the near future. We are seeking highly motivated candidates with a strong background in algebraic geometry or an adjacent field. Good communication skills in English or German are desirable as well as a willingness to learn German within the first two years. Teaching duties are minimal with at most 2 contact hours per week. Candidates are expected to conduct research in one of the focus areas of the SFB-TRR 45 which are represented in Mainz.

The SFB-TRR45 is a DFG-funded research collective between the Universities Bonn, Essen and Mainz. The main focus is the education and training of young researchers (PhDs and post-docs) in the fields of algebraic and arithmetic geometry. There are numerous activities such as master classes, summer schools, seminars, conferences and doctoral student meetings, and members have other benefits, such as access to travel funds. It provides an ideal environment to further an academic career in algebraic or arithemetic geometry.
