KITP

The Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics expects to appoint researchers as Associate Specialists at the postdoctoral level beginning in September 2012. Appointments will normally be for periods of two years or longer depending on the promise, breadth of interests, and experience of the candidate, and on the anticipated scientific programs of the Institute. The Institute is especially interested in candidates who can contribute to the diversity and excellence of the academic community. A detailed list of the programs for 2012/2013  is now available. Interested persons should submit a resume, a statement of research interests, and arrange to have three letters of recommendation sent.
