NYU Shanghai invites applications for a number of postdoctoral fellowship positions from candidates with teaching and research interest in mathematical sciences or related disciplines. The fellows will also be part of the NYU-ECNU Institute of Mathematical Sciences at NYU Shanghai.
The main scientific themes include theories and applications of probability and nonlinear partial differential equations. The fellows will work closely with faculty mentors, and will interact with groups at NYU Shanghai, including visiting scholars, ECNU, and NYU. The fellows are expected to present their work in seminars and related workshops or conferences.
