Postdoctoral position in Theoretical Cosmology at IFT Madrid

Kind of offer: 
Status: 

It is a pleasure to announce the opening of a three-year postdoctoral position in theoretical cosmology at IFT CSIC/UAM, Madrid. The position is supported by funds from the 2019-T1/TIC-15784 “Atracción de Talento” grant held by Dr. Matteo R. Fasiello.

The focus area will be early universe physics and in particular the investigation of the inflationary particle content, pairing up model-building constraints with observational signatures (including primordial gravitational waves). Dr. Fasiello is actively involved in the LISA Collaboration.

All candidates with general expertise in theoretical cosmology are encouraged to apply.

The appointment is for three years, subject to yearly performance reviews. Salary is commensurate to experience. The position comes with a generous travel budget. The start date can be as early May 2021 and should be no later than October 1st of the same year.

IFT Madrid (https://www.ift.uam-csic.es/en/) houses a thriving Cosmology Group. Members include Dr. Guillermo Ballesteros, Dr. Matteo R. Fasiello, Prof. Juan Garcia-Bellido, Dr. Sachiko Kuroyanagi, Prof. Savvas Nesseris and a lively group of highly motivated postdocs.

Candidates are invited to send a curriculum vitae, a list of publications (if not included in the cv), and a brief research statement to matteo.fasiello@csic.es, ensuring the subject line includes "postdoc2020". Candidates should make sure at least two letters of recommendation are sent to the same address by the deadline.

The deadline for applications is set on December 18th 2020. However, review of applications will continue until the position is filled.

The IFT actively supports equality, diversity and inclusion and encourages applications from all sections of society.
