[quantum-info] Graduate openings University of Calgary

[Carlo Maria Scandolo]

Dear all,
apologies for cross-posting. Gilad Gour and I are looking for 
outstanding candidates for graduate positions (MSc and PhD level) in our 
quantum information group at the Department of Mathematics & Statistics 
at the University of Calgary, Canada. Our group works within the 
Institute for Quantum Science and Technologies, directed by Barry 
Sanders, which is one of the top institutes for quantum information in 
Canada.
Our research interests are in theoretical aspects of quantum 
information, the quantification of quantum resources (such as 
entanglement), quantum thermodynamics, quantum foundations and general 
probabilistic theories.
You can read about some of my research achievements here (magazine 
interviews):

Graduate positions are normally funded through teaching assistantship; 
however, more competitive scholarships are also available. Applications 
for math programs are preferred, however we can also offer supervision 
for other programs. More information here:
Math MSc

The deadline for applications is *15 January 2023*.
The University of Calgary is Canada’s leading next-generation 
university: a living, growing and youthful institution that embraces 
change and opportunity with a can-do attitude. Located in the nation's 
most enterprising city, the university is recognized as one of Canada’s 
top five research universities, grounded in innovative learning and 
teaching and fully integrated with the community it both serves and 
leads. The University of Calgary inspires and supports discovery, 
creativity and innovation across all disciplines.
Finally, a few words on the city: Calgary has been on the top list of 
the most livable cities in the world for years, and it is the most 
livable city in North America. It boasts more days of sunshine per year 
than any other major Canadian city. Calgary is also less than an hour's 
drive from the majestic Rocky Mountains!

Best regards,

Carlo Maria Scandolo
