[Jodi Patient]

*The Asia Pacific Center for Theoretical Physics (APCTP), Korea*

is seeking outstanding candidates for a couple of positions for

*Leaders of Independent Junior Research Group (JRG)
  in Theoretical Physics.*

These positions are open to strengthen the in-house research program of 
the Center by forming new JRGs. The Center has sixteen member countries 
and forms a research network center of the Asia Pacific region in the 
field of theoretical physics through various academic activities. We 
encourage applications in the area of theoretical physics, including but 
not limited to astrophysics, condensed matter physics, nuclear/hadron 
physics, particle physics, string theory, and statistical physics. The 
existing JRGs at the Center can be found at the APCTP homepage 
(http://www.apctp.org). Each JRG leader is granted academic independence 
and encouraged to build his/her own research group. JRG leaders are also 
expected to promote and take advantage of the connection with other 
research centers of the world including the Asia Pacific region.

The initial appointment is for three years and renewable up to two 
additional years depending on the research performance and the 
availability of the program resources. The annual stipend including the 
severance pay will start from KRW 65,000,000 depending on the research 
experience and qualification. In addition, complimentary housing, office, 
and research funds will be provided. The research fund may be used for 
hiring postdoctoral fellows and students, as well as for covering research 
activities. The starting date is expected to be June 1, 2018, but is 
negotiable.

Applicants should send a CV, publication list, and a short description of 
research accomplishments and future plans to jrg at apctp.org by February 14, 
2018 to get a full consideration. Two letters of recommendation should be 
sent separately by the application deadline. Please contact jrg at apctp.org 
for more information. APCTP is an equal opportunity employer and we 
welcome applications from non-membership countries.
