</span><font face="HelveticaNeue" class="">The School of Mathematical Sciences and the School of Physics and Astronomy of the University of Nottingham are launching the Nottingham Centre of Gravity (<font class="">N</font>CoG). The Centre will bring together
Nottingham<font class="">'s</font> internationally leading expertise in gravitational physics and expand it into new areas. It will be built on six overlapping pillars of gravitational research: fundamental physics, mathematics, cosmology, relativistic astrophysics,
experiment, and data & modeling. Members of the CoG include Tasos Avgoustidis, Clare Burrage, John Barrett, Ed Copeland, Anne Green, Kirill Krasnov, Jorma Louko, Adam Moss, Tony Padilla, Paul Saffin, Thomas Sotiriou, and Silke Weinfurtner.</font></span><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);" class=""></span>

<span class="" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-size: 14px;"><span class="">The <font class="">N</font>CoG is very keen to host research fellowship that relate to all of the above research areas. We also aim to extend the Centre's areas of expertise
in directions such as, w</span>aveform modelling and data analysis, n<span class=""></span>umerics in General Relativity and beyond, r<span class=""></span>elativistic astrophysics and strong field tests of general relativity, cosmology with gravitational
waves; amplitudes, string theory and supergravity,<span class="">and plan to use long term fellowships as a vehicle for doing so. </span></span><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);" class=""></span>
