[cmath] PIMS/CNRS call for applications

[Alejandro Adem]

PIMS / CNRS Call for Applications 2010 - 2011

The Pacific Institute for the Mathematical Sciences (PIMS) and the Centre 
National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) are calling for applications 
from French researchers to spend the academic year 2010-11 in one of the 
PIMS universities and to participate in the PIMS research activities. The 
applicants should be either "fonctionnaires titulaires" either at the CNRS 
or at a French university, and priority will be given to junior 
researchers ("charg(e)es de recherches" or "maitres de conferences").

Applications should be sent to Guy Metivier, Directeur INSMI (CNRS), and 
to Alejandro Adem, Director of PIMS, by December 1, 2009. They should 
include a vitae and a list of publications, together with a description of 
the research project to be done during the academic year, and the names of 
the PIMS researchers which would be involved in the project. In the case
of university faculty, once the application has been accepted, the actual
appointment is subject to the person asking for a "detachement au CNRS"
from his/her home institution and being accepted.

Successful applicants will be sent for one year by the CNRS to the PIMS 
university where the research is to be carried out, on the understanding 
that they will be given adequate working conditions, and be treated like 
local faculty (except for teaching). We encourage researchers at PIMS 
universities to contact their French counterparts and encourage them to 
apply. The extent of local support will be a crucial factor in judging the 
applications.
