The project has particular emphasis on putting theory into practice, by embedding session types in a range of programming languages and applying them to case studies; or developing the links between session types and other areas of theoretical computer science. The research programme includes collaboration with several companies and organisations.

Candidates for the post-doc position will need to have expertise in either:

1. programming language design and implementation; or
2. formal semantics, type theory and concurrency theory

Different positions will be suitable for different points on the theory/practice spectrum. We are especially interested in candidates with a combination of theoretical and practical skills.
