Position Description:

The Condensed Matter Theory Group at Rice University expects the opening of a postdoctoral position with a start date in Fall 2025. The successful candidate will work in Prof. Qimiao Si’s research group, in a setting that is interactive with other faculty, postdocs and graduate students of our CMT group and with an active group of experimentalists.

The position is targeted towards the field of strongly correlated electron systems, broadly construed. Examples of the specific areas of interest include quantum criticality, correlated electronic topology, correlated flat bands, iron-based, nickel-based and other unconventional superconductivity, non-Fermi liquid physics, frustrated quantum magnetism, and quantum entanglement aspects of quantum materials. Both analytically and numerically minded candidates will be considered.

Applicants should provide files that contain a CV, a brief (typically up to 3 pages) statement of research interests in combination with 2 (p)reprints, and arrange for three letters of recommendation to be sent, through the AcademicJobsOnline system.
