2. Fully Funded PhD Programs in AI-Based Health Assessment: Transformer Foundation Models Applied to NMR Spectra of Human Blood
Summary of PhD Project
This research project aims to develop a robust AI foundation model based on modern Transformer architectures, capable of capturing the structure of complex, high-resolution NMR spectra – analogous to how language models such as ChatGPT learn the structure of human language. One of the primary goals is to enable the model to infer health-related information directly from NMR spectra of human blood.

4. Fully Funded PhD Programs in Evolution of Chemoreception in Parasitoids
Summary of PhD Project
The PhD candidate will investigate the chemoreception networks involved in CHC perception, particularly in the context of prezygotic reproductive isolation within a species complex of parasitoid wasps (Nasonia). Our previous research has already deciphered the patterns of sexual attractiveness in Nasonia CHC profiles. Expanding on this foundation, the PhD candidate will employ a suite of advanced techniques—single-sensillum recording (SSR), gas-chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC-MS), electro-antennographic detection (EAD), RNAi knockdowns, and behavioral olfactometer assays—to elucidate how divergence in CHC perception has potentially contributed to prezygotic reproductive isolation.

5. Fully Funded PhD Programs in Mobility Data Scientist – Traffic Simulation
Summary of PhD Project
We are working on one of the most important challenges of our time: The CASE megatrends (Connected, Autonomous, Shared, Electric) are fundamentally changing human mobility. In the future, we must rely more heavily on digital, sustainable, and shared solutions to meet our transport demand. As one of the 14 future clusters of the Federal Ministry of Education and Research, MCube is designed to implement these megatrends in metropolitan areas.

7. Fully Funded PhD Programs in molecular plant pathology
Summary of PhD Project
Our group focuses on the role of RAC/ROP GTPase-mediated signaling at the plant–fungus interface and its contribution to cellular changes that facilitate the establishment of the powdery mildew Blumeria hordei in the cereal crop barley. Particularly in this project, we are interested in better understanding the molecular functions of RIC proteins, which have been identified as downstream interactors of barley RAC/ROP GTPases.

8. Fully Funded PhD Programs in Modeling and Simulation of Airport Operations
Summary of PhD Project
The air transport system is currently facing severe challenges. While capacity in the system is constantly increasing after the COVID downturn, more and more airports get closer to their capacity limits, while at the same time facing issues in acquiring sufficient resources to conduct stable operations. Operation “at the edge” leads to high sensitivities of the system on external disturbances. Together with our industrial partners Lufthansa AG and Airport Munich GmbH we started a joint project to build optimization and simulation models for the operations of Terminal 2 of Munich Airport. The joint goal is to derive tactical and strategic evolutions to increase resilience of operations.

9. Fully Funded PhD Programs in Transportation in the TRR408 AgiMo
Summary of PhD Project
C5 in the CRC is concerned with the multimodal macroscopic fundamental diagram (MFD) that represents network-wide traffic states in an urban road network, accounting for cars, buses, trams, bicycles, and trucks as a function of transport supply and travel demand. The objective of the project is first to develop assessment indicators based on the MFD to characterize network-wide interventions, like reallocating road space or travel demand management schemes. Second, to develop an MFD-based traffic simulation linked to the agent-based simulation environment MATSim.
