We are advertising a 3-year postdoc in probability at McGill; details appear below. We would be grateful if you could pass along this ad to anyone who may be interested. The application deadline is December 10.
Louigi, Linan, Jessica and Elliot.
The Department of Mathematics and Statistics at McGill University is advertising a three-year postdoctoral fellowship in probability theory and related fields. The postdoctoral fellow will include a teaching obligation of two courses per year. Candidates must have a doctoral degree in mathematics or a related discipline at the date of appointment, and must have demonstrated the capacity for independent research of excellent quality. The probability group includes four faculty members from the McGill Department of Mathematics and Statistics (Louigi Addario-Berry, Linan Chen, Jessica Lin and Elliot Paquette), as well as several faculty members from other McGill departments and other Montreal universities.
The fellowship will include a generous salary, and additional funding will be available to the postdoc for research-related travel. Moreover, postdoctoral fellows, depending on their residency status, may pay a reduced tax rate (via the Québec program "Tax Exemption for Foreign Postdoctoral Trainees").
McGill University is committed to equity and diversity. We welcome and encourage applications from women, Indigenous persons, people with disabilities, members of racialized communities, LGBTQIA+ individuals, and other groups which are currently underrepresented within the mathematical community. Candidates are welcome to signal any leave that affected productivity, or any other circumstances that may have had an effect on their career path. This information will be considered to ensure the equitable assessment of the candidate’s record. McGill seeks to ensure the equitable treatment and full inclusion of people with disabilities by striving for the implementation of universal design principles transversally, across all facets of the University community, and through accommodation policies and procedures. Individuals who anticipate needing accommodations for any part of the application process may contact, in confidence,
accessibilityrequest.hr@mcgill.ca, or phone at 514-398-2477.
Applications should be submitted via MathJobs.org and should include 3 references. All qualified applicants are encouraged to apply; however, in accordance with Canadian immigration requirements, Canadians and permanent residents will be given priority.
To ensure full consideration applications must be received by December 10, 2019.
