Merton College Oxford has advertised a Junior Research Fellowship in plasma physics/magnetic confinement fusion. It is open to applicants both from within the field AND FROM PHYSICS AND MATHEMATICS GENERALLY.

The link to the advert is here:

(scroll down to “Culham Junior Research Fellowship in Physics…”)

An important point to stress is that those who have done their PhD in AREAS OTHER THAN PLASMA PHYSICS but wish to switch to fusion research can apply: the criterion will be outstanding quality of people’s previous work, not necessarily specific expertise in plasmas.
