The Opportunity:
Applications are invited for two Postdoctoral Research Associate positions in mathematical physics, within the School of Mathematics at the University of Edinburgh. The posts are available from 1st September 2025, one for 36 months and the other for 24 months; both are fixed-term, full-time contracts. These positions are supported by ERC/UKRI Consolidator and Royal Society grants held by Tim Adamo.
The Mathematical Physics group at the University of Edinburgh currently consists of: Tim Adamo, Sayantani Bhattacharyya, Tudor Dimofte, José Figueroa-O’Farrill, Jelle Hartong, James Lucietti, Bernd Schroers and Joan Simon, as well as eight postdoctoral researchers and multiple PhD students. In addition to working in collaboration with the grant-holder (Adamo), successful candidates will be encouraged to develop and pursue their own approaches to research. These positions also come with substantial travel and research budgets.
Applicants should have a PhD in mathematical or theoretical physics and a track record of research excellence. Please submit a CV, brief (no more than 3 pages) and research statement. In addition to this, please arrange for at least three letters of reference to be sent to references@maths.ed.ac.uk quoting the reference number 11440.
The deadline for applications is 1 December 2024, after which interviews will be conducted for shortlisted candidates.
These posts are full-time (35 hours per week); however, we are open to considering part-time or flexible working patterns. We are also open to considering requests for hybrid working (on a non-contractual basis) that combines a mix of remote and regular on-campus working.
Your skills and attributes for success:
- A PhD in mathematical or theoretical physics, obtained prior to the start date of the position.
- A track record of research excellence, particularly in the study of celestial holography, scattering amplitudes, twistor theory or related areas.
