We offer two postdoctoral fellowships for researchers in the broad area of information theory, with special emphasis on interactive communications. Specific areas of interest include single-user and multiuser communications with noisy feedback, iterative-refinement coding for two-way channels, interactive coding and its relation to dynamical systems and stochastic control, resource-limited interactive communications, distributed function computation, and combinatorial aspects of multiuser interactive communications. The research will be conducted in collaboration with Dr. Ofer Shayevitz and his group http://www.eng.tau.ac.il/~ofersha/, and is funded by a grant from the European Research Committee (ERC).

The positions are available immediately and for a period of up to two years. Applicants should hold a PhD in either electrical engineering, theoretical computer science, or mathematics, and are expected to have a strong background in information theory or closely related fields. Remuneration is highly competitive and commensurate with skills and track record. To apply, please send your CV along with a short statement of research interests to Dr. Ofer Shayevitz at [email protected].
