CRM-ISM Postdoctoral Fellowships

CRM-ISM postdoctoral fellowships are awarded to promising researchers who have recently obtained or expect to obtain a Ph.D. in the mathematical sciences. The fellowship offers an annual stipend of at least $40,000 CDN for one year, and is renewable for a second year. This is a research fellowship, allowing the recipient to devote all of his or her time to research under the supervision of a professor from one of the ISM member universities. If fellows wish to teach, they may request to be offered teaching assignments for which they will receive an additional salary.

Applications are welcome in all fields of research in which the CRM and the ISM are actively involved, namely: algebra, number theory, analysis, applied mathematics, category theory, combinatorics, geometry and topology, mathematical physics, nonlinear dynamics, probability, quantum computing, statistics, mathematical methods in medical imaging, and actuarial and financial mathematics. The CRM's 2010 Fall thematic semester will be on Geometric, Combinatorial and Computational Group Theory, and the 2011 Winter thematic semester will be on Statistics. Several postdoctoral fellowships shall be awarded specially for these programs.


Eligibility Requirements

To be eligible for a CRM-ISM postdoctoral fellowship, researchers must have obtained a Ph.D. after December 1st, 2005. Priority will be given to candidates who have obtained their Ph.D. within 3 years.

Please note that while it is not an eligibility requirement, preference will be given to candidates who are not currently registered at one of the ISM member universities.
