Position Description

Washington University in St. Louis is inviting applications for a postdoctoral fellow position within the Nuclear Theory for New Physics (NTNP) topical collaboration, funded by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). The NTNP collaboration is dedicated to tackling significant theoretical challenges in the exploration of fundamental symmetries and neutrino research, which aim to advance our understanding of physics beyond the Standard Model.

We seek a highly motivated postdoctoral fellow to advance research aligned with NTNP’s objectives. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in nuclear theory, with demonstrated expertise in many-body methods, effective field theory, or related computational techniques. The successful applicant will work closely with Profs. Dev, Pastore, and Piarulli and is expected to join the project as soon as possible, but no later than September 2025. Applicants must hold a Ph.D. in nuclear theory or a closely related field by the start of the appointment.

The initial term of the appointment is two years, with the possibility of a third year based on performance and funding availability. Information on being a postdoc at Washington University in St. Louis can be found at https://postdoc.wustl.edu/prospective-postdocs-2/.

Interested candidates should submit an application that includes a cover letter, a curriculum vitae with a comprehensive list of publications, a statement of research interests, and three letters of recommendation.

Reference letters should be submitted by the referee to: Reference Letter Submissions.

Questions regarding the position can be directed to ntnp-postdoc@physics.wustl.edu. The selection process will begin immediately and continue until the position is filled.
