Our Objective

The Rising Researchers Seminar Series provides a platform for early career researchers globally to showcase their exciting work to a broad nuclear theory audience. This online series aims to create visibility for rising researchers who are senior graduate students and postdocs within three years of graduating.

Speakers will be chosen by a committee from a competitive pool of applications. Selected speakers will give a 60-minute seminar and be featured on the Rising Researchers Seminar Series website.

Details can be found in our charter.

Seminars are held online on the first and third Tuesday of each month and are intended to be accessible to the broad nuclear theory community.

The series covers nuclear theory broadly defined to encompass, but not be limited to

  • Hot QCD (eg. heavy ions)
  • Cold QCD (eg. hadron structure)
  • Nuclear structure and reactions
  • Nuclear astrophysics
  • Fundamental symmetries and neutrinos
  • Applications of quantum computing and machine learning to nuclear theory

See our application page for more details on the nomination and application process.
