Dear all,



ICFO-The Institute of Photonic Sciences is offering three postdoctoral
positions to a well-qualified, highly motivated and dynamic young
scientists who wishes to enhance his/her scientific career in a friendly
and stimulating environment.



The successful candidates will be joining the *Quantum Information Theory
group* led by *Prof. Dr. Antonio Acín*. The group has experience in the
design of quantum information protocols, with an emphasis on quantum
cryptographic applications, the study of quantum correlations and the
application of quantum information concepts to other fields, such as the
study of many-body systems and quantum thermodynamics.



The hired researchers will be working in the project “*Certification of
quantum technologies*”, recently awarded by the *European Research Council
(ERC)*. We are looking for scientists with different profiles and covering
different research directions, such as the study of many-body systems and
their connection with quantum information theory, the certification of
quantum annealers and simulators, the characterization of quantum
correlations, and the design and analysis of quantum communication and
certification protocols. Candidate should ideally have a proven track
record on at least one of the previous research questions.



The contract is offered for periods of one year, renewable for a total of
up to 5 years. The earliest starting date is 1 January 2020.



The formal application should be submitted online via
http://jobs.icfo.eu/?detail=452 .
