Description

Each year Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics invites applications for postdoctoral positions, including named fellowships, from new and recent PhDs working in fundamental theoretical physics. 

Research areas at Perimeter include: particle physics, quantum matter, cosmology, strong gravity, mathematical physics, quantum fields and strings, quantum foundations, quantum information, and quantum gravity. Importantly, research at Perimeter focuses on the intersections of those research areas. 

Most postdoctoral positions are offered for a period of three years. You may also be eligible for a named four-year postdoctoral fellowship including the Jocelyn Bell Burnell, Stephen Hawking, and Chien-Shiung Wu fellowships. Senior five-year fellowships are also available. Fellowships may be offered jointly between Perimeter and partner institutes and universities. 

Applications are due November 6, 2023, however, applications submitted after this date will be considered until all positions are filled. Referees may also continue to submit their references past this deadline.
