About this position

This is a joint European postdoctoral application for research in theoretical high-energy physics. The call brings together a large network of participating institutes across Europe, allowing applicants to be considered simultaneously for postdoctoral opportunities at multiple host groups through a single application.

The advertised research environment focuses on the unification of fundamental interactions and closely related themes inspired by string theory, quantum gravity, supersymmetry, and formal quantum field theory. The participating institutes span a broad set of theory groups and centres, including groups working on holography, conformal field theory, supergravity, amplitudes, black holes, worldsheet string theory, bootstrap, asymptotic and generalised symmetries, supersymmetric field theories, integrability, cosmology and de Sitter space, nonperturbative QFT, and quantum information aspects of gravity.

Applicants who are selected may join one of many collaborating institutes, such as theory groups in Barcelona, Brussels, Cologne, Copenhagen, Dublin, Durham, Lausanne, Florence, Ghent, Leuven, Paris, Milan, Mons, Naples, Oviedo, Padova, Parma, Rome, Saclay, Trieste, Southampton, Turin, Warsaw, Vienna, Wuerzburg, and Yerevan. The call is coordinated as a common application process for these institutes, with evaluation shared centrally while hiring decisions remain independent at each host institution.

The notice emphasizes that the participating institutes may have postdoctoral positions available for the next academic year, and that some positions may depend on funding outcomes. It also notes that this is the direct successor to the former common postdoc application hosted at KU Leuven until 2025. Applicants are advised that no separate contact or application to each institute is needed once the common form has been submitted.

The application is evaluated by readers and a committee of representatives from the participating institutes. Results may be shared with the participating staff, and offers are expected to begin after the evaluation phase, according to the timetable stated in the advert.

Funding details

Available

What's required

Applicants should be postdoctoral candidates in theoretical high-energy physics or closely related areas. The advert does not state specific degree, grade, language, or technical requirements, but the application is intended for researchers in topics such as string theory, quantum gravity, supersymmetry, holography, black holes, amplitudes, and formal quantum field theory.

How to apply

Create an account on Academic Jobs Online. Then complete and submit the application form for this joint postdoctoral call before the deadline. Separate applications to individual participating institutes are not required.
