2021-3 Recruitment Announcement for Senior Researcher and Postdoctoral Research Associate positions at the Center for Theoretical Physics of the Universe

The Center for Theoretical Physics of the Universe (CTPU) (http://ctpu.ibs.re.kr) at Institute for Basic Science (http://www.ibs.re.kr), South Korea, invites applications for Senior Researcher and Postdoctoral Research Associate positions in Theoretical High Energy Physics, Cosmology, and String Theory, which can start anytime in March - September (later time is negotiable), 2022. The initial appointment will be for 2 years, and can be extended for an additional year subject to the performance review and funding situation*.

The research group at the CTPU involves 6 faculty members (Kiwoon Choi, Jai-chan Hwang, Sanghyeon Chang, Sang Hui Im, Seung-Joo Lee and Pablo Soler), as well as 1 YSF fellow and 14 postdoctoral research fellows**. We also have affiliate faculty members (Myeonghun Park and Chang Sub Shin) who are actively working with our group members. The official language at the center is English.

Research interests of our group cover broad areas of theoretical high energy physics and cosmology, including physics beyond the Standard Model, collider phenomenology, dark matter, early Universe cosmology, large scale structure of the Universe, string compactifications and their phenomenological consequences. We have strong ties to the cosmology group at KASI (http://cosmology.kasi.re.kr). We also have close relations with the experimental centers hosted by IBS: the Center for Axion and Precision Physics Research (http://capp.ibs.re.kr) and the Center for Underground Physics (http://cupweb.ibs.re.kr).

Applications should include CV, publication list, research statement, Consent form to Provide Personal Information, and at least three letters of recommendation.(to be submitted online by the reference writers at the site).
