[TYPES/announce] postdoctoral positions at U. Western Ontario

[Dan Christensen]

[Please forward as appropriate.]

UWO plans to hire several postdocs to start in 2015, with an
application deadline of January 5.  I have included the ad below.

Applicants in homotopy type theory, univalent foundations, higher
category theory, homotopy theory and other areas represented in the
department would be particularly welcome.

Our department has a very active postdoctoral program.  There are
currently 12 postdoctoral fellows, many of whom will be continuing
next year, so there will be a lot going on.  We also have a busy
seminar schedule with many visitors.  More information about the
department is available at  http://www.math.uwo.ca/

The positions have a reduced teaching load of just two half-courses.
A "half-course" is a 13-week course meeting for 3 or 4 hours each week.
Note also that the cost of living in London is quite low.

Feel free to direct any questions to either Rick Jardine or myself.
