[Job-offers-cs] 3 year Postdoctoral Fellow in Mathematical Phylogenetics at UNSW Sydney

[Pekka Orponen]

Location: UNSW Sydney

I am recruiting a postdoctoral researcher to work with me on the 
mathematics of phylogenetic trees and networks. This is a fast-changing 
field and so the exact research program is likely to evolve, but is 
likely to include questions arising from bijections between trees and 
networks on the one hand, and partitions and covers of finite sets on 
the other. Likewise, the mathematics required for making progress can be 
diverse, but certainly capacity in discrete mathematics, especially 
combinatorics and graph theory, will be needed.

The role will suit someone who loves solving problems, floating 
speculative ideas, coming up with new questions and angles on problems, 
and finding solutions. It will suit someone who likes to collaborate but 
will also be happy to work independently at times due to my governance 
responsibilities.

To enquire informally about the role please email me. Applications need 
to go through the UNSW system as described in the official advertisement 
linked in the URL above.
