[Theory net folks - please email me if you have questions about SFI or how this postdoc works. You may know that Josh Grochow is currently an Omidyar Fellow at SFI. - Cris Moore]
I am writing to let you know about the Santa Fe Institute's Omidyar Fellowship — an interdisciplinary postdoctoral fellowship with an extraordinary amount of freedom and autonomy.
As you already know, the Santa Fe Institute's research spans the growing field of complex systems. This includes:
• scaling and growth in cities
• social, biological, and technological networks
• phase transitions in search and optimization
• quantum computing and computational complexity
• major transitions in evolution, and the origin of life
We have postdocs, faculty, and visitors in fields ranging from Computer Science, Economics, and Physics to Biology, Ecology, and Anthropology. If you come here, your own interests will add to this ever-changing mix. In addition to a competitive salary, Omidyar Fellows receive discretionary research funds for travel, visitors, and other research costs. The Fellowship lasts up to three years, and past Fellows have an excellent track record of obtaining faculty positions at top-tier institutions.
The window for applications is now open and closes on October 24th.
