The Physics of Information Group <http://www.phys-info.org/>, at Instituto
de Telecomunicacoes (in Lisbon, Portugal), is seeking to hire a
Post-doctoral Fellow to develop research in quantum information theory
or/and in quantum effects in biology.

The candidates are expected to have research experience in one of the above
areas, or in general in: open quantum systems, quantum optics, condensed
matter physics, biophysics, or information processing in biological systems.



*Application timing*Applications should be submitted by 20 September 2015,
but earlier applications are welcome.

The selected candidate is expected to start in January 2016, but earlier
starting dates are also possible. The position will remain open if adequate
candidates are not identified.



*Application procedure*The application is constituted by the following
documents:

1. curriculum vitae of the applicant;
2. statement of research interests, including a short description of the
candidate's scientific background, motivation and skills;
3. two letters of recommendation (in alternative, the contact information
of two persons able to provide references is also accepted).

The application should be sent by e-mail, following the instructions below
(where "Surname" refers to the surname of the candidate):

Applications that are incomplete or do not comply with the above
instructions may not be evaluated.

Short-listed applicants may be invited for one or several interviews
following the submission of their application.



*Further information*The Physics of Information Group
<http://www.phys-info.org/> promotes research and advanced training in the
physics of information in physical, chemical and biological systems. It
develops theory work and is involved in a number of experimental
collaborations and international projects
<http://www.phys-info.org/projects.html>. It also coordinates the new Doctoral
Programme in the Physics and Mathematics of Information
<http://www.dp-pmi.org/>, at the University of Lisbon.

The group is part of Instituto de Telecomunicações (IT), a national
research lab in Lisbon, Portugal, rated *Excellent *in its last
international assessment.

The group is located in the campus of Instituto Superior Técnico (IST, the
School of Science and Engineering of the University of Lisbon), in Lisbon,
Portugal.
