Postdoctorial Fellow

The Department of Physics at Washington University in St. Louis invites applications for the Edwin Thompson Jaynes Fellowship. We welcome applicants with interests in the research areas of the Department of Physics (Nuclear and Particle Physics, Condensed Matter Physics, Quantum Information, Biophysics, and Astrophysics and Cosmology). The Fellowship is a prize fellowship managed by the Department of Physics. Successful candidates are expected to propose a tentative research program, and further develop and refine that program during their fellowship at Washington University in St. Louis. The aim of the fellowship is to prepare candidate(s) for faculty positions at research institutions or staff scientist positions at national laboratories. Awardees will pursue an independent research program, collaborating with one or several faculty members from the Department of Physics. Jaynes Fellows will be initially appointed as postdoctoral fellows and are anticipated to continue for three years.
