We invite applications for a postdoctoral position in particle theory at UC Davis in the areas of phenomenology, model building, and quantum field theory, beginning in Fall 2016 or sooner.

The faculty members of the group include Hsin-Chia Cheng, Jack Gunion, Markus Luty, and John Terning. We also have close contact with the UC Davis cosmology group (which includes Andreas Albrecht and Nemanja Kaloper), and our gravity/formal theorists (Steve Carlip, Tudor Dimofte, Sergei Dubovsky, Veronika Hubeny, Mukund Rangamani, and Jaroslav Trnka).

Applicants should send their CV, publication list, statement of research interests, and at least three letters of recommendation to Academic Jobs Online. There is a separate application for gravity/formal postdocs.

Review of applications will begin Dec. 7, 2014, but late applications may be considered until the position has been filled. The initial appointment will be for two years, and may be extended to a third, contingent on performance and continued external funding.
