Job Announcement Text: 

The NAOJ ALMA Project invites applications for a Project Research Staff (postdoctoral researcher) for the ALMA Joint Scientific Research Program to conduct the research project “Probing dark dwarf galaxies and dark matter with ALMA” using ALMA data (including archival data). The successful candidate will spend 100% of the time for this project in collaboration with Professor Kaiki Taro Inoue at Kindai University (Higashiosaka-city, Osaka, Japan). The successful candidate is required (1) to publish one paper using ALMA per year, and (2) to submit one ALMA proposal per year.

for details.

The application is open until filled, but no later than Jan 20th, 2021, noon (JST)

Applicants must have a Doctoral degree (PhD) or equivalent in a relevant field. The successful candidate will be employed by the NAOJ, and will be stationed at Kindai University. In case the PI of the project (Professor Inoue) moves to another university or institute, the successful candidate is expected to accompany the PI. However, if such an arrangement is deemed difficult by the new university/institute, the successful candidate will be relocated to NAOJ in Mitaka, Tokyo to continue the proposed research project.

The term is until January 31, 2022. For a researcher who was employed by NINS (National Institutes of Natural Sciences) after April 1, 2013, their term will be set so that the total employment period from April 1, 2013 will be less than 10 years. Any researcher who has been employed as a NAOJ Project Research Fellow for a total of five or more years is not eligible to apply for this position. The starting date is negotiable, but as soon as possible after appointment.
