About this position
The Center for Experimental Cosmology & Instrumentation (CECI) at the University of California, Riverside invites applications for the CECI Postdoctoral Fellow position hosted by the Department of Physics and Astronomy.
This honorific postdoctoral fellowship is aimed at exceptional researchers working in experimental cosmology, astroparticle physics, neutrino physics, gravitational wave detection, and related areas of experimental physics. Fellows will join CECI’s research environment and carry out leading research alongside core CECI faculty members and their laboratories.
CECI is led by Director and 2017 Nobel Laureate Barry Barish and focuses on enabling instrumentation for future experiments in cosmology, astroparticle physics, gravitational waves, neutrino physics, and related fields. The center is connected to major collaborations including ADMX, CCAT, DarkSide, DEAP, DUNE, LIGO, and the Simons Observatory, offering a collaborative setting for research at the interface of instrumentation and frontier physics.
Selected fellows will be embedded in an active center-wide research community and are expected to work with an existing group led by CECI faculty. Applicants are encouraged to identify anticipated faculty mentors and research groups in their statement of research interests.
Appointments are made at the rank of Postdoctoral Researcher, with the possibility of being considered for other postdoctoral positions in CECI if not selected for the fellowship.
