We would like to bring to your attention the opening of 2 Early-Stage
Researcher (PhD) positions in the Centre for Research in String Theory at
Queen Mary, University of London. These are part of the Innovative Training
Network of the European Commission SAGEX, or "Scattering Amplitudes: from
Geometry to Experiment". Please consult the SAGEX website
https://sagex.ph.qmul.ac.uk for more details of the network overall, while
detailed descriptions of these positions (ESR1 and ESR2) can be found at
https://sagex.ph.qmul.ac.uk/?page_id=4.

Applications must be made through the official link
https://webapps2.is.qmul.ac.uk/jobs/job.action?jobID=3297, which also
contains crucial details about eligibility requirements, salaries and other
aspects of the positions. The preferred start date for both posts is 1st
October 2018, and in any case no later than 1st May 2019. The deadline for
applications is May 29, 2018.

Informal enquiries should be addressed to Professors Andreas Brandhuber and
Gabriele Travaglini, who will supervise these positions, at
a.brandhuber@qmul.ac.uk and at g.travaglini@qmul.ac.uk.  General
information about the School can be found at www.ph.qmul.ac.uk and about
the Centre for Research in String Theory at www.strings.ph.qmul.ac.uk. The
School currently has six academics working in the area of scattering
amplitudes: Andreas Brandhuber, Ricardo Monteiro, Bill Spence, Gabriele
Travaglini, Congkao Wen and Chris White.

Technical questions regarding the application procedure must be directed to
Ms Jazmina Vaca Ortiz on j.vaca-ortiz@qmul.ac.uk
Two reference letters should also be sent to the same email address, to
arrive by the deadline.

Given the timing of the current PhD hiring cycle, we would be extremely
grateful if you could pass this on to any student you think might be
interested.

With many thanks,

Andi Brandhuber, Gabriele Travaglini
