| Position Description: |
We invite applications for a postdoctoral position in the field of neutrino physics. The successful applicant will work in Prof. Carlos Argüelles's group on the IceCube South Pole Neutrino Observatory, perform data analysis, study multimessenger astrophysics, and develop neutrino phenomenology.
The group focuses on searching for new physics with IceCube, performing fits to global neutrino data, and working on neutrino phenomenology. The postdoctoral scholar will carry out research related to neutrino physics with IceCube, IceCube-Upgrade, and IceCube-Gen2, lead efforts in data analysis, machine learning-based reconstruction and hardware activities. Candidates with strong expertise in either machine learning, detector development, and data analysis are strongly encouraged to apply, as these skills will be preferred in the selection process. The appointment duration is up to three years, with reappointment contingent upon funding and research collaboration.
Applicants should send a curriculum vitae, a list of publications, a statement of the applicant's previous or proposed efforts to improve diversity in science, a statement of research interest, and arrange for three (3) letters of reference to be sent electronically to Felice Gardner (felice_gardner@fas.harvard.edu), or by mail to:
