Position Description:    

*** this position has been closed and new applications are no longer accepted. ***

The Department of Physics at the University of Milano-Bicocca is expected to be able to fill a Postdoc position in high-energy theory, to start indicatively in Fall 2021. 

The main scientific focus of the project will be on Higher-Order calculations, Resummation and Monte Carlo event generation.  The position would be initially for two years, with the possibility of a third-year extension. It is funded by the Italian FARE Grant "Precise Predictions for Particle Phenomenology" (PI: Simone Alioli) 

 The research interests of the Theory Group at Milano-Bicocca & INFN cover a wide variety of subjects including Collider Phenomenology, String Theory, Statistical Physics, Lattice QCD and Cosmology. In total, there are currently 13 faculty members, 15 Postdocs, and 12 Ph.D. students. The Phenomenology group has 3 faculty members (Alioli, Nason, Oleari), 6 postdocs (Broggio, Lim, Kallweit, Nagar, Napoletano, Gomez Ambrosio) and 3 PhD students. The main research lines focus on higher-order calculations, shower Monte Carlo and resummation. Close collaboration exists with the local CMS and LHCb experimental groups and with the Phenomenology group at the University of Milano. 

 The salary range for the Postdoc position is competitive with European standards. A generous travel allowance is also foreseen. Questions and expressions of interest can be submitted via email to simone.alioli@unimib.it

Priority will be given to applications received before Dec 18, 2020. In addition to their CV, list of publications and three reference letters, applicants should supply a short summary of their research.

The University of Milano-Bicocca values diversity and is committed to equality of opportunity. Therefore we would particularly welcome applications from the relevant group of potential candidates.
