as well as adjoint and junior faculty.

The program of the Research Training Network includes a regular
Monday afternoon colloquium, block courses, summer schools,
research workshops, etc. - all this in a very lively Berlin
discrete mathematics and algorithmics environment, which also
includes the BERLIN MATHEMATICAL SCHOOL (http://www.math-berlin.de),
the joint international graduate program of the three major
Berlin universities. We offer a family-friendly work environment,
