at Harvard University The Quantum Condensed Matter Theory groups, led by Professors Eslam Khalaf, Mikhail Lukin, Subir Sachdev, Ashvin Vishwanath, Norman Yao, Susanne Yelin and Bertrand Halperin (Emeritus) in the Department of Physics, and by Professor Efthimios Kaxiras (SEAS/Physics), expect to appoint one or more postdoctoral fellows beginning in Fall 2026. We are looking for candidates with interests in quantum
mechanical condensed matter theory including: strongly correlated electron systems & mesoscopics, topological phases, ultracold atomic gases, quantum optics, and quantum information. Candidates should also arrange for letters of recommendation to be submitted by three scientists familiar with their work. Candidates may also wish to include selected preprints or reprints of articles they have written. All involved
faculty members will jointly consider all complete applications. All applicants will automatically be considered for the HQI Postdoctoral Fellowship, subject to the availability of funds. For information about the HQI Postdoctoral Fellowship, please visit Harvard Academic Positions | Harvard Quantum Initiative Prize Postdoctoral Fellow All applicants will also be considered for possible postdoctoral fellowship
positions with Harvard PIs, sponsored by the Simons Collaboration on Ultra-Quantum Matter. More details about the Collaboration can be found at: https://projects.iq.harvard.edu/ultra-qm. Applicants may also be considered for a potential future Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation Postdoctoral Fellowship. This fellowship would provide funding for up to three years, as part of the Moore Foundation’s Emergent Phenomena in
Quantum Systems (EPiQS) initiative. Moore postdocs enjoy a great deal of independence, can choose their research topics, and work with multiple faculty members. Candidates for this position must have completed their Ph.D. degree by the appointment start date; demonstrate outstanding research in theoretical condensed matter physics appropriate to level of the position; and have the ability to identify and pursue
