About this role
Fixed-term: The funds for this post are available for 2 years in the first instance. We invite applications for a postdoctoral researcher to work on CMB cosmology with data from the Simons Observatory (SO). The SO is a leading CMB experiment that has recently started observing from the Atacama Desert in Chile. We particularly welcome applications from those with interests in cosmology from the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) effect, for example, cluster-count cosmology and interpretation of Compton-y maps. Successful candidates will work with Boris Bolliet, Anthony Challinor, Blake Sherwin and Inigo Zubeldia and the wider community of CMB and large-scale-structure researchers across Cambridge. Candidates must possess significant theoretical/analytic skills and experience in developing/applying analyses for precision CMB studies or related fields. Candidates will collaborate internationally with colleagues, will interact closely with staff and students, disseminate research findings via publ...
