Full Job Description

Candidates for this Fellowship should have research interests compatible with those of our current faculty in the Mathematical Physics research group, and should indicate within their supporting letter one or more research group members they could envision working alongside as a potential mentor or future collaborator. The successful applicant will be a talented researcher, who has already produced excellent research during their PhD and in any postdoctoral positions. They will be free to conduct their own research programme.

To aid the development of their academic profile, the Fellow will be required to contribute up to three hours of teaching per week for the 24 weeks of each academic year to support the department, averaged over the period of the Fellowship to allow for extended visits elsewhere.

Candidates will have, or be close to completing, a PhD in mathematics or physics. They must show evidence of independence and the ability to undertake research of the highest academic standard, hold an outstanding record of papers published in major international journals (commensurate with career stage), and have a realisable and relevant research plan, relevant to the existing activities and/or expertise of the Mathematical Physics research group, which would enhance the research profile of the Mathematical Institute. Additional information about the posts, and a full list of selection criteria, are available in the job description.

We are seeking a talented postdoctoral researcher to take up a Titchmarsh Research Fellowship in Mathematical Physics. This prestigious Fellowship at the University of Oxford is full-time, and fixed-term for up to 36 months. They provide an ideal opportunity for candidates to pursue an independent research programme in Mathematical Physics, and to join a large existing cohort of leading researchers on Fellowship programmes at the Mathematical Institute - https://www.maths.ox.ac.uk/people/research-fellowship-programmes.
