Information for prospective Master, PhD students and postdocs at the University of Oslo:
I have an open 3-year postdoc position in my group related to the AtLAST project, application deadline 21 Feb 2025, read more here.
We are advertising 18 MSCA postdoctoral fellowship positions at the University of Oslo as part of the EU COFUND programme DSTrain (link). The deadline for applying is 6 April 2025 and the latest starting date is 1 October 2025. The positions are 3-years long. The main focus of the DSTrain programme is the use of computational methods in science. Among the topics, within the realm of extragalactic astrophysics and cosmology, our department is interested in hosting research projects focused on the exploitation of MOONS and Euclid data, and on the development of N-body/Hydro simulations, see details at this link. Other project ideas are welcome, and we strongly encourage potential applicants to get in touch with us to explore scientific synergies and collaborations that can strengthen their proposal.
I would be happy to host Horizon Europe's Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions Postdoctoral Fellowships, especially if the proposed project has overlap with the following topics: sub-mm observations (both galactic and extragalactic), sub-mm instrumentation development (e.g. in relation to AtLAST), multi-object near-infrared and optical spectroscopic extragalactic surveys (e.g. in relation to MOONS@VLT), multi-wavelength observations of galactic outflows and study of feedback processes in galaxies, binary and dual super massive black holes. Every year the UiO MN Faculty organises a Master Class for prospective MSCA applicants around May-June, and the MSCA application deadline is usually around September-October. Info at this link.
