DIEP@UvA has several open positions consisting of three year DIEP postdoc fellowships. DIEP@UvA seeks senior postdocs whose research interests align with those of at least two of the following institutes at the University of Amsterdam: Institute of Physics (IoP), the Korteweg-de Vries Institute for Mathematics (KdVI), the Institute for Logic, Language and Computation (ILLC), the Informatics Institute (IvI), the Van 't Hoff Institute for Molecular Sciences (HIMS) and the Institute for Advanced Study (IAS).

You will join an exciting team of scientists and conduct exciting interdisciplinary research within emergence in areas such as non-equilibrium systems, causality, collective intelligence, network theory, multiscale modelling, quantum information, phases of mater, etc (for a more detailed description of DIEP@UvA research priority areas, see the website). DIEP@UvA has multiple ongoing research projects in: multiscale modelling of systems out of equilibrium; rare events in e.g. climate science; models of causal inference; logic for multi-agent systems; quantum and classical information theory; self-organisation in active matter; emergent behaviour in catalytic processes; emergence of collective social behavior; emergent phases of matter and spacetime; etc. For concrete ongoing research projects within DIEP@UvA, please check DIEP@UvA's research portfolio on our website.

We expect you to be able to work with a high degree of independence and serve as a driving force for your research subject. We also expect you to participate and help with the centre’s activities and contribute to the creation of an exciting research environment.

You are expected to:
-Perform, high level research (analytical theory, numerical modeling or logical-semantical foundations, experiment, formal proofs etc.) related to the above topics or a closely related field.
-Be able to work together with several other researchers within DIEP from different background (mathematics, physics, chemistry, computer science, logic).
-The research fellow will be integrated within the research interests of at least two of the following institutes: IoP (physics), HIMS (chemistry), IILC (logic), KdV (mathematics) and Ivl (computer science).
-Act as central beacon on the research topic within DIEP.
-Assist in organising workshops related to the DIEP topics.

Required background:
-A PhD in mathematics, physics, chemistry, computer science, or logic.
-Experience as an independent researcher.
-Excellent organisational, communication and cooperation skills.
