Quantiki

We are currently offering an (extendable) 3-year postdoctoral position to a highly motivated and well-qualified young researcher who intends to enhance his or her career on the intersection of condensed matter theory and quantum information science. The successful candidate will work as part of the research group led by Jens Eisert at the FU Berlin. For an overview of research activities of the group, see

Applications are invited (from students with a Masters Degree, or very good marks in a Bachelors Degree) for a Hardiman Scholarship at the National University of Ireland Galway. Please see http://www.nuigalway.ie/hardiman-scholarships/ for application details and get in touch with Dr. M. Mc Gettrick (michael.mcgettrick@nuigalway.ie) to discuss research projects. The deadline is imminent - February 17, 2017.

A postdoc/PhD student position in Germany

A fully-funded postdoc/PhD student position is available to work at Peter Gruenberg Institute (PGI-2) in Forschungszentrum Juelich, near Aachen in Germany. For students the degree will be granted by RWTH university in Aachen. The researcher will work with Dr. Mohammad H. Ansari. The project can be started in the Summer or Fall 2017.

A fully-funded PhD student scholarship is available to work at the Centre for Quantum Software and Information with the University of Technology Sydney in downtown Sydney. The student, who has a strong background and interest in applied mathematics, will do research under my supervision to further develop the mathematical foundations of quantum information theory and to explore applications to quantum cryptography and quantum Shannon theory. More information about my research can be found on my website: www.marcotom.info.

A broad range of PhD projects with a focus on experimental as well as theoretical quantum science are available through the Scottish Condensed Matter Doctoral Training Centre.
