This PhD project at EPFL’s SCI-ENAC-AS group, Nanotechnology for Solar Energy Conversion , focuses on the numerical modeling and design of plasmonic crystals for solar-energy-related applications. The advertised research is part of the SNSF project “Coupled oscillations in plasmonic crystals” , which investigates how plasmonic oscillations couple in metallic micro- and nanostructures. The project aims to understand and potentially engineer plasmonic crystals with broad frequency bands of extraor...

An on-site postdoctoral position is available at EPFL in Lausanne within the group of Prof. Martin Hairer at the Probability and Partial Differential Equations (PROPDE) department. The research focus is in and around stochastic partial differential equations and probabilistic aspects of quantum field theory. The exact topic will be agreed with the successful candidate, taking into account their background and interests, and there is room to pursue independent research directions as well. The pos...

The University of Basel is offering two postdoctoral research positions in the Theoretical Particle Physics and Cosmology group led by Prof. Admir Greljo. The group explores fundamental physics beyond the Standard Model, with research spanning three closely connected areas: flavor as an organizing principle beyond the Standard Model, precision probes at present and future experiments, and particle cosmology as a probe of fundamental interactions. In the flavor direction, the research touches on ...

Questions
Should I email professors before submitting my PhD application?
Yes. A well-targeted email can significantly improve your chances in many research-based programs.
What should I include in my first email to a professor?
A brief introduction, research interests aligned with the professor’s work, CV, and (if available) publication links.
How long should I wait before following up with a professor?
Typically 7–14 days. One polite follow-up is considered acceptable.
Is it better to send the same email to many professors?
No. Personalized emails that clearly match the professor’s research receive far better response rates.
Do I need a full research proposal when contacting professors?
Usually not initially — a short research summary is sufficient unless the professor specifically requests a full proposal.
