About this position

The Quantum Gravity Group in the Institute for Theoretical Sciences at Westlake University is seeking a postdoctoral fellow for a two-year appointment. The group works on fundamental problems in quantum gravity and related areas of theoretical physics, with research spanning loop quantum gravity, spinfoam models, gravitational path integrals, nonperturbative renormalization group approaches, and asymptotic safety.

The postdoctoral researcher will join a small and active team that currently includes the principal investigator, two postdoctoral researchers, two PhD students, and three long-term visiting researchers. The group combines analytical and numerical methods and studies connections between quantum gravity and black hole physics, gravitational waves, and cosmology.

This position is based at Westlake University in Hangzhou, where the research environment includes the Quantum Gravity Group’s own website and a broader institute setting in theoretical sciences. The advert presents the role as a research-intensive postdoctoral opportunity within an internationally oriented group focused on core issues in fundamental physics.

Funding details

Competitive and negotiable compensation package; postdocs receive a living allowance and research funding from the Hangzhou municipal government; supplementary funding equal to China Postdoctoral Science Foundation or Zhejiang Province Selected Funding; 400,000 RMB allowance for full-time work in Hangzhou after postdoctoral research; eligible new doctoral graduates may apply for a 100,000 RMB living allowance; high-level talent policies may apply.

What's required

Applicants should hold or expect to hold a Ph.D. degree in Physics, Mathematics, or a closely related field before the starting date. A solid background in quantum gravity, quantum field theory, general relativity, mathematical physics, or related areas is required, along with strong research potential and the ability to conduct independent research. Applicants must be aged under 35.

How to apply

Prepare the required application materials and submit them through the online application system. Include a cover letter, CV, research statement, doctoral degree certificate, and electronic passport or ID copy. Arrange for three reference letters to be submitted online by the referees.
