PostDoc positions

The Gauge Theories, Strings and Supergravity group in Padova invites applications for three postdoctoral positions starting in fall 2024. One position is funded by the national PRIN project ''Effective Quantum Gravity'', while two more positions are funded by the University of Padova STARS grant ''Generalised Symmetries from Strings and Branes''.

The group has a wide range of research interests, including string compactifications and their effective supergravity theories, quantum field theories, generalised symmetries, supersymmetry, black hole physics, holography. The successful applicant should have an interest in conducting research broadly related to these topics.

The appointment will be for two years. A possible extension to a third year may be considered depending on availability of fundings. The salary will be competitive with European standards.

Applications should be submitted not later than December 17, 2023, exclusively through the website at the link: Joint postdoc applications related to theories on the unification of fundamental interactions.

We are committed to equality of opportunity. We wish to reflect the diversity of society and welcome all qualified candidates regardless of any personal background.
