Position Description

The William H. Miller III Department of Physics and Astronomy at Johns Hopkins University invites applications for a postdoctoral associate position in Experimental Nuclear and Particle Astrophysics. The Speller group, led by Assistant Professor Danielle H. Speller, focuses on low-temperature searches for physics beyond the standard model, with a concentration on searches for dark matter and neutrinoless double-beta decay. A position is now available in the Speller group for detector development, and for experimental searches for neutrinoless double-beta decay in association with the Cryogenic Underground Observatory for Rare Events (CUORE) and the CUORE Upgrade with Particle IDentification.

Candidates should have a PhD in experimental nuclear or particle physics, or the equivalent. Preference will be given to candidates having cryogenics, hardware, and strong analysis expertise.

Applications should consist of a CV, list of publications, brief statement of research, and three letters of recommendation. Inquiries may be sent to Professor Danielle H. Speller at dspelle1@jh.edu.

Review of applications will begin on June 1, 2025. Expected start date will be August 2025 (negotiable). For information on benefits, please see https://hr.jhu.edu/benefits-worklife/. JHU is an equal opportunity employer and welcomes applications from women and members of underrepresented groups .
