Early Stage Researchers
Early Stage Researchers (ESRs) are central to the SAGEX project, and we have received funding for 15 positions. Each ESR is working towards a PhD in theoretical physics at the same time as undertaking a wide range of complementary training. The ESRs who have already begun their fellowships (and their projects) are:
