General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology Rumour Mill

A new project for rumours regarding postdoc positions in theoretical/mathematical relativity, QFT on curved spacetimes, covariant/canonical quantum gravity (loop quantum gravity and cosmology, spin foam models, group field theory, ...) and related topics. There will be some overlap with both the Theoretical Particle Physics Postdoc Rumor Mill and the Astrophyiscs Jobs Rumor Mill, but we really want to restrict it a bit more to the more theoretical side of gravity physics. As is usual with sites like this one, there can be no guarantee for accuracy of the information provided.

Update Nov. 2017: Several recent submissions to the site included "rumours" about someone having started a new job recently. Only rumours regarding the future will be posted.

Update Apr. 2022: No new rumours have been submitted in over a year. The site should be considered inactive.
