We invite applications for one or more postdoctoral research positions at the intersection of machine learning and dark matter phenomenology, particle cosmology and gravitational waves. The positions will start in Fall 2022 and will be initially for two years, with a possible extension by another year contigent depending on the availability of funding. Successful applicants will work in the research group of Dr. Christoph Weniger, and are encouraged to participate in the vibrant research environment of Gravitation and Astroparticle Physics Amsterdam (GRAPPA). Through the University of Amsterdam (UvA), they will receive access to major Dutch computing facilities. Research results are expected to be disseminated through scientific publications, conference presentations and/or software distributions.
The research group of Dr. Christoph Weniger aims at finding signals of physics beyond the Standard Model using a wide range of astrophysical observations. Focus is given to new observational approaches and technical challenges that others have not been able to overcome. The group has strong ties to the Dutch eScience center and AMLab, and is part of the GRAPPA cluster of excellence. More details can be found here .

GRAPPA is connected to the Institute of Physics (IoP) and the Anton Pannekoek Institute at the UvA as well as Nikhef. GRAPPA researchers have wide research interests, including dark matter phenomenology, cosmic rays, high-energy astrophysics, cosmology, black holes physics, gravitational waves, and string theory. It also includes experimental physicists active in the Antares/KM3NeT, ATLAS, CTA, LOFAR, and XENON1T collaborations.
What are you going to do
You will work in the group of Dr. Christoph Weniger, and be embedded in the GRAPPA Center of excellence in Gravitation and Astroparticle Physics, a multidisciplinary team of researchers active in a variety of research topics including dark matter, compact objects, high-energy astrophysics and physics beyond the standard model.
