*New Call for GSSI PhD Applications 2025/26 now open*

The Physics Division of the GSSI – Gran Sasso Science Institute (L’Aquila, Italy) is opening 12 Ph.D. positions in Astroparticle Physics, starting in the Academic Year 2025/2026.

Additionally, 1 Ph.D. position is opened funded under the Grant Agreement n. 101137080 “Astrocent Plus - Particle Astrophysics Science and Technology Centre", for which the selected candidate will contribute to the DarkSide experiment program for direct Dark Matter searches.

Applicants typically have undergraduate degrees in physics, astrophysics or related fields, and are drawn from among the most talented students around the world.

The GSSI is a center for advanced Studies and Research, located in the city of L’Aquila, Italy and operating in the fields of Physics, Mathematics, Computer Science and Social Sciences (www.gssi.it http://www.gssi.it/).

Astroparticle Physics at GSSI includes both experimental and theoretical projects on underground rare event searches, high energy cosmic radiations, gravitational waves, multi-messenger astrophysics and neutrino physics. The research activities are carried on in close collaboration with the nearby INFN Gran Sasso National Laboratory (https://www.lngs.infn.it/en https://www.lngs.infn.it/en).
