Postdoc Application in the MPP Theory Department

The Theory Group at the Max Planck Institute for Physics in Garching plans to make appointments at the postdoctoral level starting in Fall 2025.

The Theory Group is led by directors Georgi Dvali, Johannes Henn, Dieter Lüst, and Giulia Zanderighi, with staff members and group leaders Arnd Behring, Lasha Berezhiani, Ralph Blumenhagen, Rhorry Gauld, Ulrich Haisch, Georg Raffelt, Frank Steffen, Stephan Stieberger, and Marius Wiesemann.

The interests of the group include a wide range of topics in theoretical and phenomenological particle physics relevant for the LHC and future colliders, physics beyond the Standard Model, effective field theories, scattering amplitudes, string theory, astroparticle physics and cosmology, gravitational theories, and mathematical and non-perturbative aspects of field theory.
For more information see https://www.mpp.mpg.de/en/research/.

The Max Planck Society strives for gender equality and diversity. The Max Planck Society is committed to increasing the number of individuals with disabilities in its workforce and therefore encourages applications from such qualified individuals. Furthermore, the Max Planck Society seeks to increase the number of women in those areas where they are underrepresented and therefore explicitly encourages women to apply.

Applications must be uploaded from this page and should include a curriculum vitae, a list of publications, a statement of research interests, and names and e-mail addresses of three referees that will provide letters of reference.

The referees will receive personalized links for uploading the recommendation letters (no registration required). Be sure to provide correct e-mail addresses as bounces may not be detected immediately and will delay the application.
