The Fermilab Theoretical Astrophysics Group seeks applicants for the David N. Schramm fellowship. This position is reserved for postdoctoral researchers with an outstanding record in cosmology related theoretical astrophysics.

The group has a wide range of interests, including theories of the early Universe and their connections to particle physics, large-scale structure and evolution, dark matter and dark energy, ultra-high energy cosmic rays, neutrino astrophysics, and a growing program in numerical cosmology. The group is part of Fermilab's Center for Particle Astrophysics which, in addition to theory, incorporates Fermilab's involvement in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, the Pierre Auger Project, the Cryogenic Dark Matter Search, the Dark Energy Survey, the Supernovae Acceleration Probe, and other projects. Group members can be involved in any of these efforts as well as the development of future ones. The group also has strong connections with Fermilab's Particle Theory Group and with the University of Chicago's Department of Astronomy and Astrophysics and Kavli Institute for Cosmological Physics. Currently the staff members are Scott Dodelson, Joshua Frieman, Nick Gnedin, Dan Hooper, and Albert Stebbins; as well as five postdocs.

This research fellowship will be awarded for a period of up to five years beginning September 1, 2008. In addition to a competitive salary, the position includes ample funds for travel and other research expenses. Applications should include a curriculum vitae, publication list, research statement, and at least three letters of reference and be received by November 30, 2007. Applications and requests for information should be mailed to
