Dear all, I'm recruiting a PhD student (3+1 years) and a postdoc (3 years) within the context of the ERC project RESCALE (https://erc-rescale.com/). The PhD student is expected to have a master degree in philosophy or in physics and to carry out research in the philosophy of physics (broadly construed). Potential research topics include (but are not restricted to): (i) the semantics of non-fundamental physical theories; (ii) the metaphysics of levels in physics, ideally with a focus on the concept of interscale autonomy; (iii) the objectivity of scale-relative representations in physics; (iv) the philosophy of effective theories and/or renormalization group methods. Candidates with research interests in the metaphysics of non-fundamental physics are particularly encouraged to apply. The area of research for the postdoc is open (since it is funded by a different grant). But ideally, the successful candidate will work on topics related to either (i) conceptual aspects of post-WWII physics (broadly construed) or (ii) philosophical aspects of quantum field theory (either relativistic or non-relativistic), cosmology or quantum gravity tied to the concept of scale (e.g., effective theories, renormalization group methods, symmetry unification, symmetry breaking mechanisms, dimensional reduction, lattice methods, low-energy theorems). Candidates with research interests in the metaphysics of physics closely related to scientific practice are encouraged to apply too. The deadline for applying is *May 20*.
