Postdoctoral Fellowships at the Fields Institute Applications are invited for postdoctoral fellowship positions
for the 2009-2010 academic year. The (Fall 2009) Thematic
Program on Foundations of Computational Mathematics will
take place at the Institute July to December 2009 and the (Winter/Spring
2010) Thematic
Program on Quantitative Finance: Foundations and Applications
will take place at the Institute from January to June 2010. The fellowships provide for a period of engagement in research
and participation in the activities of the Institute. They may be
offered in conjunction with partner universities, through which
a further period of support may be possible. List on the cover sheet
of the application any faculty members, at
universities affiliated with the Fields Institute, who you believe
are appropriate. You are encouraged to apply directly to these other
institutions as well. If applicants do not wish their application
to be shared with affiliated universities, for this purpose, they
should note this information in their letter of application. In addition to regular postdoctoral support, one visitor for each six-month program will be awarded the Institute's prestigious Jerrold E. Marsden Postdoctoral Fellowship. This pays a full stipend and provides for a six-month period at the Institute for research and participation in the activities of the thematic program. No teaching is required. In addition to the stipend, a $1,000 (Cdn) research grant will be available during the tenure of the award. Applicants seeking postdoctoral fellowships funded by other agencies
(such as NSERC or international fellowships) are encouraged to request
the Fields Institute as their proposed location of tenure, and should
apply to the Institute for a letter of invitation. Eligibility: The Fields Institute is strongly committed to diversity within its community and especially welcomes applications from visible minority group members, women, Aboriginal persons, persons with disabilities, members of sexual minority groups, and others who may contribute to the further diversification of ideas. To guarantee consideration postdoctoral applications should reach
the Institute by December 15, 2008 (late applications may
be considered after this date).
