João Penedones promoted Associate Professor

26 May 2023

The ETH Board has promoted João Penedones to Associate Professor at the EPFL School of Basic Sciences (SB).

"João Penedones (EPFL), currently Tenure Track Assistant Professor, has been promoted as Associate Professor of Theoretical Physics in the School of Basic Sciences (SB).

João works in the field of quantum field theory and quantum gravity. He is an internationally acknowledged expert on the bootstrapping procedure. His excellent teaching is reflected not only in very good evaluations from students, but also in the decisive part he played in setting up an internationally recognised course on high energy physics that attracts scientists from throughout the world. João Penedones currently runs the Fields and Strings Laboratory while also taking a leading role in the new Bernoulli Centre."

 

João is part of the SwissMAP Phase III direction: Holography and bulk-boundary correspondence
