The Max Planck Institute for Informatics, as the coordinator of the Max 
Planck Center for Visual Computing and Communication (MPC-VCC), invites 
applications for

_Junior Research Group Leaders_

in the Max Planck Center for Visual Computing and Communication

The Max Planck Center for Visual Computing and Communications offers 
young scientists in information technology the opportunity to develop 
their own research program addressing important problems in areas such as

.             image communication

.             computer graphics

.             geometric computing

.             imaging systems

.             computer vision

.             human machine interface

.             distributed multimedia architectures

.             multimedia networking

.             visual media security.

The center includes an outstanding group of faculty members at 
Stanford's Computer Science and Electrical Engineering Departments, the 
Max Planck Institute for Informatics, and Saarland University.

The program begins with a preparatory 1-2 year postdoc phase (Phase P) 
at the Max Planck Institute for Informatics, followed by a two-year 
appointment at Stanford University (Phase I) as a visiting assistant 
professor, and then a position at the Max Planck Institute for 
Informatics as a junior research group leader (Phase II). However, the 
program can be entered flexibly at each phase, commensurate with the 
experience of the applicant.

Applicants to the program must have completed an outstanding PhD. Exact 
duration of the preparatory postdoc phase is flexible, but we typically 
expect this to be about 1-2 years. Applicants who completed their PhD in 
Germany may enter Phase I of the program directly. Applicants for Phase 
II are expected to have completed a postdoc stay abroad and must have 
demonstrated their outstanding research potential and ability to 
successfully lead a research group.

Reviewing of applications will commence on November 1, 2011. The final 
deadline is December 31, 2011. Applicants should submit their CV, copies 
of their school and university reports, list of publications, reprints 
of five selected publications, names of references, a brief description 
of their previous research and a detailed description of the proposed 
research project (including possible opportunities for collaboration 
with existing research groups at Saarbrücken and Stanford) to:

Prof. Dr. Hans-Peter Seidel

Max Planck Institute for Informatics,

Campus E1 4, 66123 Saarbrücken, Germany

Email: mpc-vcc@mpi-inf.mpg.de

The Max Planck Center is an equal opportunity employer and women are 
encouraged to apply.
