About this position

Rutgers University’s Department of Physics and Astronomy is seeking a postdoctoral researcher to work with Professor Renyu Hu on exoplanet science. The project sits at the intersection of observation, modeling, and theory, with a strong focus on the atmospheres, climates, evolution, and habitability of exoplanets, especially small planets orbiting nearby stars.

The role offers the chance to contribute to a broad and active research program at the forefront of exoplanet discovery and characterization. The researcher may lead and participate in observations with the James Webb Space Telescope and major ground-based observatories, develop novel data-analysis techniques, and build atmospheric and surface models that include climate and photochemical processes.

The position also emphasizes integrating observational and theoretical approaches to study the formation, evolution, and environments of small exoplanets. Another major direction is the use of artificial intelligence and machine learning to speed up exoplanet discovery and characterization, alongside science analyses that support future flagship observatories such as the Habitable Worlds Observatory.

The successful candidate will work within a research environment that combines advanced modeling tools, observing resources, and access to the Rutgers astrophysics program’s preferred observations with the Southern African Large Telescope. The group is described as active in JWST science and in developing the scientific foundation for next-generation exoplanet missions. The department is based on Rutgers University’s flagship campus in Piscataway, New Jersey, near New York City, with a strong local astrophysics community and opportunities for collaboration.
