National University of Singapore announces postdoctoral fellowships in gravitational-wave research

The National University of Singapore (NUS) is inviting applications for postdoctoral research fellowships within its Department of Physics and the Department of Statistics and Data Science.

One program, funded by the Singapore National Research Foundation (NRF), focuses on utilizing artificial intelligence for gravitational-wave astronomy. Researchers in these roles will work at the NRF’s Campus for Research Excellence and Technological Enterprise, focusing on areas such as machine learning, Bayesian optimisation, and computational science.

Another fellowship opportunity, supported by the Ministry of Education (MOE), centers on the scientific modelling and analysis of asymmetric-mass binaries for next-generation gravitational-wave observatories. Candidates may be expected to participate in the international LISA Consortium.

Both positions offer initial one-year appointments with potential renewals for up to three years, starting as early as March 2027. The roles include competitive salaries, travel support for international conferences, and opportunities for research student supervision.
