Postdoctoral position at the University of Namur - Belgium

Post by Andre Fuzfa » March 21 2011

The Namur Center for Complex Systems (NAXYS) at the University of Namur (Belgium) is pleased to announce the opening of a postdoctoral position in theoretical cosmology, more specifically on the possible links between dark energy and primordial inflation. Expertise in either dark energy or inflation (or both), as well as on the related data analysis, will be strongly appreciated.

In addition to relevant research experience, a PhD degree is required for this position. The candidate cannot have spent more than 24 months in Belgium in the three years prior to the start of the position. The position will start as early as Fall 2011 for up to two years. The deadline for applications is 1st of JUNE 2011. Late applications may be considered until the post has been filled.

This position is supported by the Belgian French Community in the context of a larger effort to develop the research pole in cosmology inside the Louvain Academy around the centers NAXYS (PI: Pr. A. Fuzfa) and CP3 (Cosmology, Particle Physics and Phenomenology, PI: Pr. C. Ringeval) at UCLouvain. Though based in Namur, the researcher will therefore work on both sites, in close collaboration with A. Fuzfa& C. Ringeval as well as other people in NAXYS and CP3. The project also comprises other forthcoming postdoctoral fellowships, PhD opportunities, outreach (popularization) activities and the organization of an international conference.

Applications will include a curriculum vitae, a copy of the PhD diploma, a list of publications, a short report on previous research activities (about 2 pages) and a research statement (about 4 pages). Applicants should also arrange for at least two letters of reference from senior scientists to arrive by the closing date, 1st of JUNE 2011. Applications and reference letters have to be sent by email to Pr. A. Füzfa ([Log in to view email]).
