EPSRC is offering Postdoctoral Fellowships in theoretical physics, theoretical computer sciences, mathematical sciences and cross-disciplinary interfaces to enable the most talented new researchers to establish an independent research career, shortly or immediately after completing a PhD.

The awards are for a period of up to three years and cover the salary costs of the Fellow, incidental equipment, travel and subsistence. Candidates are encouraged to gain a wider research experience by changing host organisations and to clearly demonstrate their ability to operate as independent researchers.

Postdoctoral Fellowships in Mathematical Sciences:
Up to ten Fellowships will be awarded to candidates who can demonstrate excellence and originality in research within the remit of Mathematical Sciences. The Mathematical Sciences Programme encompasses all areas of novel mathematics (pure and applied), probability & statistics and operational research. The programme would particularly welcome applications covering the application of the mathematical sciences to EPSRC’s mission programmes, other disciplines and industry. For further information please contact Dr Caterina Mora, tel: 01793 444162.

Closing Date and time: 4pm Tuesday 26 August 2009
