Position Title: Postdoctoral Scholar - Nuclear Theory Group
Position Type:Postdoctoral

*** this position has been closed. ***

The Nuclear Theory Group at the University of Washington anticipates filling one fulltime postdoctoral scholar position to start in September 2022. Outstanding candidates in nuclear theory, broadly defined, are invited to apply. This position is a full-time, 12-month (one-year) appointment which may be extended (upon successful performance) up to a maximum term of three years.

The Theoretical Nuclear Physics Group consists of four faculty members [S. R. Beane, A. Bulgac, G. A. Miller, and G. Scamps, postdoctoral scholars, and students. Current group research interests include many-body theory and nuclear structure, lattice gauge theory and effective field theories, heavy-ion collisions, nuclear reactions at high and low energies, JLab and EIC physics, weak interactions and fundamental symmetries, and nuclear astrophysics. Members of the group are also interested in aspects of quantum information science with applications in the physics of QCD.

For further information about the group see: https://sharepoint.washington.edu/phys/research/Pages/Nuclear-Theory.aspx

Postdoctoral scholars are represented by UAW 4121 and are subject to the collective bargaining agreement, unless agreed exclusion criteria apply. For more information, please visit the University of Washington Labor Relations website.

Applications should be submitted at http://apply.interfolio.com/91799 and include a CV with list of publications, a research statement, a statement describing the applicant's experience and commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion, and a minimum of three reference letters from senior physicists. Applicants must have a PhD or foreign equivalent (or scheduled to be completed prior to the start date) in theoretical nuclear physics or a closely related field. Any questions may be directed to Professor Gerald Miller: miller@uw.edu. Note that the Nuclear Theory Group is distinct from the Institute for Nuclear Theory and therefore submitting to one does not guarantee consideration by both. The position will remain open until filled.

Equal Employment Opportunity Statement University of Washington is an affirmative action and equal opportunity employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, creed, religion, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, marital status, pregnancy, genetic information, gender identity or expression, age, disability, or protected veteran status.

Commitment to Diversity The University of Washington is committed to building diversity among its faculty, librarian, staff, and student communities, and articulates that commitment in the UW Diversity Blueprint (http://www.washington.edu/diversity/diversity-blueprint/). Additionally, the University’s Faculty Code recognizes faculty efforts in research, teaching and/or service that address diversity and equal opportunity as important contributions to a faculty member’s academic profile and responsibilities (https://www.washington.edu/admin/rules/policies/FCG/FCCH24.html#2432).
