Milena Grifoni

A PhD position is available in the Physics Department at the University of Regensburg, supervised by Professors John Schliemann and Milena Grifoni. The research project focuses on the theoretical description of many-body physics in twisted bilayers of transition metal dichalcogenides, an exciting area at the intersection of condensed matter physics and materials science. The successful candidate will join a collaborative research environment and contribute to advancing the understanding of quantum materials. Applicants should hold a Master's degree in physics and possess a strong background in theoretical physics; strong IT skills are also advantageous. The position is funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft through a Collaborative Research Center, with a potential start date of January 1st, 2026, pending final approval. Interested candidates should prepare a CV, research statement, and references, and send their application to Professor John Schliemann. This is an excellent opportunity for motivated students interested in theoretical and computational approaches to quantum materials.
