(2024) Shortlisted postdoc candidates have been invited for Zoom interviews. Longlisted candidates might be invited for an interview at a later stage. The assessment committee is still going through the PhD applications. Please contact HR if you have any questions about the process, as I am not allowed to be in contact with candidates prior to the interviews. Postdoc interviews will take place in December, PhD interviews will take place in January, and we expect both searches to be concluded by February 15th, 2025.
