[DMANET] PhD/Postdoc position in Immersive Analytics and Graph Algorithms at the University of Konstanz

**Doctoral or Early Postdoc Position in Immersive Analytics and Graph
Algorithms**

We are seeking a highly motivated candidate with a keen interest in
immersive analytics, in particular graph layout and topological network
analysis algorithms in immersive environments, to investigate collective
behaviour. The position is primarily targeted as a PhD study but also
open to candidates on a junior postdoc level. It is a full-time position
also on PhD level with a salary level according to the TV-L 13 tariff
agreement for state employees. The position will be available as soon as

The PhD/Postdoc position will be part of the Cluster of Excellence
"Centre for the Advanced Study of Collective Behaviour" (CASCB) at the
University of Konstanz, which investigates the collective behaviour and
associated patterns in humans and animals in an unprecedented
interdisciplinary approach by developing an innovative range of
quantitative methods and novel technologies
(https://www.exc.uni-konstanz.de/collective-behaviour/). The position
will be embedded into the conceptional framework of the research area
"Computational methods for measuring, analysing and visualising
collective behaviour". For more information on the research group and
topic, please visit https://www.cls.uni-konstanz.de/ or contact Prof.
Dr. Falk Schreiber (Chair for Life Science Informatics, University of
Konstanz): falk.schreiber@uni-konstanz.de
