[DMANET] 2019 Herman Goldstine Memorial Postdoctoral Fellowship

The Mathematical Sciences department of the IBM Thomas J. Watson
Research Center invites applications for its 2019–2020 Herman
Goldstine Memorial Postdoctoral Fellowship for research in
mathematical and computer sciences. The fellowship provides scientists
of outstanding ability an opportunity to advance their scholarship as
resident department members at the Research Center. The Research
Center is located in Westchester County, less than an hour north of
New York City.

The department provides an atmosphere in which basic research is
combined with work on practical applications. Our permanent members,
academic visitors, and post-doctoral fellows pursue research in pure
and applied mathematics and in theoretical and exploratory computer
science. Areas of research include: algorithms, artificial
intelligence and machine learning, numerical analysis and scientific
computing, dynamical systems, inverse problems, optimization,
operations research, applied probability, and statistics. Close
interaction with permanent department members is expected and
encouraged, but fellows are free to pursue their own research
interests.

Up to two fellowships will be awarded. Candidates must have received a
Ph.D. degree after September 2014 or should expect to receive one
before the fellowship commences in the second half of 2019 (usually in
September). The fellowship has a period of one year, and may be
extended for another year by mutual agreement. The stipend is expected
to be between $130,000 and $150,000, depending on the length of
experience. An additional allowance for moving expenses will be
provided.
