Postdoctoral Positions at the University of Cambridge

Applications are invited for two postdoctoral positions to work in the group of David Tong at the University of Cambridge.

One position will be in lattice gauge theory, exploring ways to put chiral gauge theories on the lattice. The candidate is expected to have experience in Monte Carlo simulations.

The second position is open to researchers with broad interests in quantum field theory, including lattice gauge theory, topological phases of matter, strong coupling dynamics, supersymmetric theories, and string theory.

The successful candidates will have completed (or nearly completed) a PhD in Theoretical Physics or a closely related area prior to their appointment, and will have demonstrated a capacity to produce world-class research.

There will also be opportunities to collaborate with other theoretical physicists in Cambridge. These include Christopher Thomas and Matthew Wingate, working on lattice gauge theory, and many others working on more formal aspects of quantum field theory.

Appointment of the successful candidates is expected to start on, or before, 1 October 2021.

Informal inquiries can be made by contacting David Tong or use the alternative email address.

Fixed-term: 2 years

In addition, there is an open scholarship call

STFC scholarships in theoretical physics

https://www.swansea.ac.uk/physics/postg ... te-opportu
nities-physics/stfc-fully-funded-scholarships-in-theoretical-physics/

These are available to do research in any of the interests of the Particle
Physics and Cosmology Theory group including:

• AdS/CFT, holography, and Integrability

• Dualities in Quantum Field Theories and String theory

• Amplitudes in gauge and supergravity theories

• Theoretical cosmology and gravitational waves

• Hot and dense QCD on the lattice

• Physics beyond the standard model

The closing for applications is January 31st, 2021. Applications must be made online following the links above. In addition to home/UK students, international and EU students are eligible to apply for these studentships but should note that they may have to pay the difference between the home UKRI fee and the institutional student fee. Informal enquiries can be directed to the postgraduate admissions tutor Dr Daniel Thompson or to the supervisors listed in the above calls.

Research Associate/ Fellow in UK

The Centre for Health Informatics at the University of Manchester is currently advertising a number of full-time research associate and research fellow positions, across two large projects (see below). All roles will be particularly appealing to anyone who has an interest in developing /applying novel statistical/ data science methods to solve real-world clinical questions.

1. Project entitled “Advancing understanding of multimorbidity in metabolic disease through innovation in analytical methods”. This project is a collaboration between the University of Manchester, University of Oxford, and Novo Nordisk. The project aims to develop and apply novel statistical and machine learning methods for prediction and treatment of multi-morbidity, with particular focus on metabolic disease.

Duration: Starting as soon as possible, 2 x posts for 36 months and 1 x post for 24 months

Closing date: 03/11/2021
