Dear Friends,

The  Computer Science Department of The University of Hong Kong is
currently looking for outstanding candidates for a tenure track
faculty position in Quantum Information Theory.
The Department is highly supportive of the quantum are and further
hirings are likely to follow in the next few years.

If you have the chance, I would be grateful if you could let potential
applicants know about this opportunity by sharing the following
announcement.

All best wishes,
Giulio
