These topics include questions in the forefront of theoretical physics relating quantum gravity and string theory to gauge theories.

The position is funded within the GATIS network. The scientific goal of the network is to develop and exploit a novel approach to quantum field theory that combines ideas from low dimensional statistical physics and mathematics with more traditional methods of high energy physics. Network participants include leading research centres in Europe such as King's College London and University of Durham (UK), DESY Hamburg and Humboldt University (Germany), CEA Sacley (France), Nordita (Sweden), Porto University (Portugal). There will be numerous events within the network, including Mathematica Summer Schools in Theoretical Physics, workshops and conferences. The fellows will be taking part in these events. The fellows are also expected to get their PhD degree at the end of the training.
