About this position

Northeastern University’s Department of Physics is seeking a postdoctoral researcher in cosmology to join the department’s growing astrophysics and cosmology community in Boston. The position centers on research in weak gravitational lensing, galaxy clustering, and combined-probe cosmological analyses.

The successful fellow will work with Prof. Jonathan Blazek and the broader cosmology group at Northeastern. The project offers flexibility to pursue several related directions, including work connected to the Dark Energy Science Collaboration at the Vera Rubin Observatory, the Roman Space Telescope, and the OpenUniverse simulation team.

The postdoctoral researcher will be embedded in an active research environment within Northeastern’s Physics Department, which has established strengths in theoretical and experimental particle physics alongside its expanding astrophysics/cosmology efforts. The university’s location in Boston also offers access to collaborations across departments and nearby institutions.

Northeastern is also part of the NSF AI Institute for Artificial Intelligence and Fundamental Interactions, adding another collaborative research setting for work spanning cosmology and computation.
