Three KASI-Yonsei postdoc positions

The Korea Astronomy and Space Science Institute (KASI) and Yonsei University invite applications for three (3) postdoctoral research associates. The positions are initially for 2 years and could be renewed for another two years based on the mid-term evaluation. Qualified applicants are those who earned their Ph.D. within the past 5 years (starting date is within 5 years of receiving their Ph.D.) or those who will obtain their Ph.D. before the appointment date.

Salary will be commensurate with experience and qualifications. The pay grade will be determined based on experience and performance. A research fund of 10M KRW/year is available for travel, publication fee, and equipment.

Applicants should send 1) a short research plan (1 page), 2) a CV with a publication list, and 3) a list of two referees who would write a letter of recommendation if the applicant is shortlisted to Prof. Sukyoung Yi ([email protected]) or Dr. Taehyun Jung ([email protected]r) by 31 January 2023.
