英国里斯本大学凝聚态物理学中心博士后职位

Post-Doctoral Research Fellow
University of Lisbon - Centre for Condensed Matter Physics
Application deadline: 3 March 2012 (23h:59) Location: University of Lisbon (Lisbon, Portugal)

Salary: 17,940 Euros per year (1,495 Euros per month) tax free including work insurance

A postdoctoral position funded by FCT will be available from the 1st of April 2012 (to be filled as soon as possible after that date) for 6 months renewable up to the 31st of March 2014. There is also the possibility of an additional extension (up to 12 months) beyond that date, upon approval by the funding agency.

The appointed fellow will work in parallel simulations on the propagation of infectious diseases. The research activity will focus on the study of disease spread in geographically detailed populations, in particular on the study of stochastic effects due to finiteness of populations as well as co-evolution of viral strains (flu) in a global (world-wide) setting.

The successful candidate will be part of the Physics of Biological Systems group ( http://physbio.cii.fc.ul.pt/PBS ), which is hosted by the Centre for Condensed Matter Physics of the University of Lisbon. Applicants should have a PhD degree in physics, mathematics or informatics, and experience in simulations.

To apply please send a detailed CV, motivation letter and reference letters from two referees by email to:

Dr. Andrea Parisi: andreaparisi.physics@gmail.com or parisia@ptmat.fc.ul.pt

or by post to:

Andrea Parisi
Centro de Fisica da Materia Condensada da Universidade de Lisboa Instituto para a Investigação Interdisciplinar UL Av. Prof. Gama Pinto 2 1649-003 Lisboa Portugal

The application will be open until the 3rd of March 2012.

The selected candidate will be notified by email. We expect to be able to inform about the result within a few days afterwards.
