INM has a state-of-the-art infrastructure for in situ Electron Microscopy and seeks a Group Leader in Advanced Electron Microscopy (M/F/D) to establish a vibrant own research program and collaborate with existing scientific groups. This opening primarily targets junior scientists after their first postdoctoral stay aiming to consolidate their independent profile in the field. Senior scientists are also welcome to apply.
We will provide funding for your position as junior group leader, 2 PhD students, and one postdoctoral scientist. Start-up funding to set up your group and your research line and reasonable yearly funding for consumables will also be offered. The position is planned as a 5-years position.

The Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG, German Research Foundation) has established six new priority programs (SPP, Schwerpunktprogramme), which will start next year and will initially be funded for three years with a total of 44 million euros. The programs, which are interdisciplinary and characterized by the use of innovative methods, are intended to investigate the scientific basis of particularly current or emerging areas of research. This includes SPP 2451 “Engineered Living Materials with Adaptive Functions”. It is coordinated by the INM – Leibniz Institute for New Materials in Saarbrücken.

Bei der Entwicklung und Fertigung innovativer Produkte spielt deren Nachhaltigkeit eine immer größere Rolle. Innovation bedeutet nicht mehr nur schneller, besser, günstiger, sondern auch energieeffizient, umweltfreundlich und vor allem recycelbar. Vom 17. bis 21. April stellt das INM – Leibniz-Institut für Neue Materialien auf der Hannover Messe neuartige Materialien und Methoden vor, die es ermöglichen, in Kunststoff eingebettete elektronische Komponenten bei Bedarf aus diesen zu lösen. Anschließend können Elektronik und Kunststoff separat wiederverwertet werden.
Have you graduated in the natural sciences or successfully completed your doctorate and are now looking for new challenges? The INM employs scientists from the materials sciences, biology, physics, chemistry and related disciplines. There is no standstill with us, we are constantly developing and are looking for new colleagues who would like to follow this path with us.

In a joint appointment procedure of the Leibniz Association and Saarland University, Professor Wilfried Weber was selected for a dual function: He was appointed Scientific Director of INM – Leibniz Institute for New Materials on March 15. He also received a professorship for new materials at Saarland University. This continues the close cooperation between the two institutions to advance joint projects in materials science.

Whether for tablets, smartphones, cars, clothing or medical devices – touch screens, foldable screens, displays and sensors of the future must be bendable and flexible. And the printed electronics applied to them must be just as bendable and flexible to enable tapping and swiping, for example. At LOPEC, the trade fair for printed electronics, INM presents electrospinning as a promising process.
