Early Stage Researcher (Marie Sklodowski-Curie DN)

We are seeking applications for a Research Fellow, in a Horizon Europe MSCA-Doctoral Network (DN) program (Funded by EU, GA: 101169527) entitled "Cohomology, Geometry, Explicit Number Theory (COGENT)". The position is funded through UKRI EP/Z535485/1 within the framework of the Horizon Europe guarantee funding.

The following criteria apply to all the Researcher positions within COGENT:

• Early-Stage Researchers Rule: All researchers recruited in a doctoral network must be Early-Stage Researchers (ESRs, i.e., be in the first four years (full-time equivalent research experience) of their research careers and have not been awarded a doctoral degree).
• Nationality Rule: Researchers can be of any nationality.
• Mobility Rule: At the time of recruitment by the host organisation, researchers must not have resided or carried out their main activity (work, studies, etc.) in the country of their host organisation for more than 12 months in the 3 years immediately prior to the reference date. Compulsory national service and/or short stays such as holidays are not considered. The mobility rule applies to the (first) beneficiary where the researcher is recruited, and not to beneficiaries to which the researcher is sent or seconded. It is also only determined at one point in time: that of the fellow's first recruitment in the project.
• English Language: ESRs must demonstrate that their ability to understand and express themselves in both written and spoken English is sufficiently high for them to derive the full benefit from the network training.
• Host Specific Criteria: Every ESR must qualify for admittance as a PhD student at the university the position is assigned to. Consequently, there may be additional criteria for every position that are laid out in the detailed description of every ESR position.
• These are a full-time positions (35 hours per week), fixed-term for 36 months, with a start date of 1st September 2025 (or as soon as possible thereafter) and will require the successful candidate to register for the study for a PhD (NB applicants must NOT already have a PhD).
