Post-Doctoral Fellowships in Quantum Information Processing

CIFAR's Quantum Information Processing Program is seeking outstanding 
researchers to fill two Junior Fellow positions (i.e., postdoctoral 
fellowships).  The Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR) is a 
catalyst for discovery, incubating ideas that revolutionize the 
international research community.  The Quantum Information Processing 
(QIP) Program studies a wide range of topics relating to quantum 
information, including experimental and theoretical physics, theoretical 
computer science, and mathematical aspects of quantum information.

One position will begin as soon as is convenient for the successful 
candidate and will run through summer 2010.  The other position will run 
for two years, beginning in fall 2009.  During their tenure, Junior 
Fellows will be integrated as members of the QIP Program and will also 
participate in CIFAR's elite Junior Fellow Academy, interacting with peers 
in the Institute's eleven other programs.  The Academy's purpose is to 
develop a community of broad thinking young scholars who are open to 
interdisciplinary collaboration, outstanding in their quality of research, 
and poised for future leadership roles.

Interested candidates should apply on-line at 
http://www.iqc.ca/positions/postdoc-cifar/application.php?t=1.  The 
application should include a CV (including list of publications), a 
research statement, and names of up to 3 potential supervisors.  Eligible 
supervisors must be members of the CIFAR QIP program and should normally 
be located in Canada, although other arrangements will be considered in 
exceptional cases.  Applicants should also provide names and e-mail 
addresses of 3-4 referees (at least 3 must not be CIFAR program members). 
To receive full consideration, applications must be received by Wednesday, 
December 10th, 2008, although later applications will be accepted until 
the positions are filled.
