BRITTON POSTDOCTORAL FELLOWSHIP

Applications are invited for the Britton Postdoctoral Fellowship in the 
Department of Mathematics and Statistics at McMaster University named 
after our former colleague Dr. Ronald F. Britton.  This fellowship 
provides an opportunity to spend up to three years engaged in research, 
with a limited amount of teaching, and is particularly suitable for 
talented mathematicians who have recently completed the Ph.D.  To learn 
more about the department, please visit http://www.math.mcmaster.ca/.

The Fellowship is open to candidates of any nationality and selection will 
be based upon the candidate's research potential.  Research areas of 
particular interest include the Geometry and Topology of Manifolds, 
Algebraic K-Theory, and Group Actions.  The fellowship normally starts 
July 1, 2009 and the annual stipend is $42,000 plus a $5,000 grant for 
research expenses.

Candidates are required to apply for these fellowships by using the 
MathJobs website by January 5, 2009.  See our advertisement at 
http://www.mathjobs.org/.

Applicants should provide at least three letters of recommendation.  At 
least one of these letters should report on the candidate's teaching 
abilities.  Preferably these letters will be submitted through the 
MathJobs website (see above); they may also be sent directly to either:
