ERC-funded postdoctoral positions, Dublin, Ireland

The Relativity group at University College Dublin (UCD) invites expressions of interest for multiple ERC-funded postdoctoral positions in gravitational wave source modelling, with a focus on small mass-ratio binaries.

The successful candidates will work with Prof. Barry Wardell and will join the EMRIWaveforms project, funded by an ERC Advanced grant. We are particularly interested in candidates with expertise in black hole perturbation theory, gravitational-wave data analysis for extreme mass-ratio inspirals, numerical relativity and post-Newtonian theory, although we are open to all candidates with a strong background in gravitational-wave science. Candidates will have ample opportunities to collaborate with the broader Relativity Group at UCD.

The preferred start date is between January and September 2026, and the positions are envisioned for a period of 2 years with possible extension cond...
