We advertise 1 PhD position to join the newly-founded team of Prof. Eva Laplace at the Institute of Astronomy, KU Leuven, Belgium. Selected candidates will collaborate closely with other teams at KU Leuven, with a broad massive-star research community, and the newly-formed Leuven Gravity Institute. We actively support equal opportunities and diversity and highly encourage underrepresented groups to apply.
The Host Institute
The Institute of Astronomy (IoA) of Leuven University in Belgium is a young and vibrant research group of some 90 scientists, engineers, and administrative staff (fys.kuleuven.be/ster), including 7 full-time and 3 part-time professors. The institute is an expertise center in stellar physics and is active in several international consortia and collaborations. Crucial for this project; all members of IoA have access to parallel and supercomputing facilities. The IoA is further responsible for the organization of the 2-year Master in Astronomy & Astrophysics of the Faculty of Science and operates the 1.2m Mercator telescope at Roque de los Muchachos, La Palma Observatory, Canary Islands.
