Are You the Kind of Physicist Who Refuses to Wait?
Some physicists are content with the slow path - years of peer review queues, grant cycles, and working safely inside established paradigms. If you'd rather test bold ideas against hard evidence now, we want to hear from you.
Who We Are
The Recognition Physics Research Institute is an independent research organization developing Recognition Physics - a first-principles framework that derives physical constants and laws from a single axiom, with a machine-verified formal core (Lean 4), falsifiable quantitative predictions, and active experimental collaborations. We don't ask anyone to take the framework on faith: claims are either proved, derived, or labeled hypotheses and tested.
Your Role
This is more than a research position - it’s an opportunity to be part of a movement that challenges and expands the frontiers of physics.
- Conduct theoretical research to refine and formalize Recognition Physics.
- Publish papers and preprints under the institute’s name.
- Represent RPI at conferences, workshops, and scientific discussions.
- Engage with the scientific community through talks, panels, and media appearances.
- Collaborate with experimental physicists to design and interpret tests of Recognition Physics.
Who You Are
- PhD in Theoretical Physics (or related field) within the last 1-5 years.
- Strong foundation in mathematical physics, quantum mechanics, or gravity models.
- Experience publishing research and engaging with new ideas beyond the mainstream.
- Comfortable speaking at conferences and in public forums to advocate for Recognition Physics.
- Independent thinker - willing to question dominant paradigms and explore new directions.
Why Join Us?
- Opportunity to shape and lead a scientific movement.
- Travel to major conferences and symposia to represent RPI.
- Work outside the constraints of academia while still making a major scientific impact
