PostDoc

The Physics of Information and Quantum Technologies Group, at Instituto de Telecomunicacoes (in Lisbon, Portugal), is seeking to hire two Post-doctoral Research Fellows.

The candidates are expected to have research experience in quantum information theory and/or quantum matter.

Application timing

Applications should be submitted by 27 January 2017, but earlier applications are welcome and will be processed immediately.

The positions will remain open if adequate candidates are not identified.

Application procedure

As of 5/24/17, this position is NOW CLOSED.

The Si quantum dot group led by Neil Zimmerman is looking for a postdoctoral fellow to work on a new project in collaboration with Intel Corporation.

The postdoctoral researcher will be primarily involved in the following:

Director of Institute of Theoretical and Applied Informatics (ITAI) invites young researchers to submit an application to Visegrad Scholarship Program and perform reseaerch at ITAI PAS.

This position is advertised across specialisations, and includes the following possible research topics:

1. Quantum information theory.
2. Quantum neural networks and quantum learning algorithms.
3. Quantum computation.
4. Graph theoretic measures applied to quantum information processing, non-contextuality and generalised physical theories, and to quantum information capacities.
5. Quantum contextuality, quantum entanglement, Bell inequalities and related topics.
6. Quantum cryptography.

The Institute for Logic, Language & Computation (ILLC) at the University of Amsterdam is looking for a postdoctoral researcher in the area of quantum cryptography, as part of Christian Schaffner’s NWO VIDI Project “Cryptography in the Quantum Age”.

Are you an experienced and ambitious researcher looking for your next challenge? Do you have a background in quantum communications? Do you want to further your career in one of the UK’s leading research intensive Universities?

Location
Center for Quantum Information and Quantum Control, University of Toronto

Closing Date
February 1, 2017.

Salary
Cdn $45,000 - $55,000.

Qualification
Ph.D. in any area of quantum information or control and demonstrated research ability at the forefront of the field.

This is a fellowship scheme funded by Aberystwyth University, the Welsh Government and the European Union. It is aimed at researchers with 3-5 years post-PhD experience and comes with a 3 year appointment. To be eligible, you have to have spent no more than 12 months in the UK over the last three years (0 months is fine!), and applications can be from anywhere in the world. At the moment, I am collecting expressions of interest only; there is a two-stage proposal involved in this but chances are quite good (last year's applicant was successful) .

We propose a one year postdoctoral position in our private Research Lab on Quantum Computing, based near Paris. This position can be extended to 2 years, as well as to a permanent position. We offer a competitive salary.
This position will consist in developing new algorithms for classical simulation of quantum circuits on supercomputers (HPC). More detailed description is accessible to interested candidates.
