The Junior Research Group (JRG), 'Quantum Information, Black Holes, and Holography', at the Asia Pacific Centre for Theoretical Physics (APCTP) in Pohang, Korea, invites applications for postdoctoral positions. The starting date of the appointment is September 1, 2026.

APCTP, founded in 1996, is an international organization dedicated to excellence in research and the training of young scientists in the Asia-Pacific region. APCTP offers a great research environment with strong connections to a number of active theoretical and experimental research groups at the Pohang University of Science and Technology (POSTECH). APCTP has broad international agreements with many leading institutions around the globe for scientific exchanges.

We seek candidates in theoretical high-energy physics who will work closely with the JRG leader, Prof. Hyun-Sik Jeong, as well as other postdoctoral researchers at APCTP. Experience in one or more of the following areas is especially desirable: holography (gauge/gravity duality), quantum information theory, and machine learning applications in physics. The initial appointment is for one year, renewable for up to two additional years, depending on research performance and funding.

Applicants should submit the following materials electronically to hyunsik.jeong@apctp.org:

1. Curriculum Vitae

2. List of publications

3. Research statement

4. Three recommendation letters

Review of applications will continue until the positions are filled; however, priority will be given to applications received by December 15, 2025.
