Stewart Blusson Quantum Matter Institute Postdoctoral Fellowships

The UBC Stewart Blusson Quantum Matter Institute http://qmi.ubc.ca invites applications for highly motivated postdoctoral fellows interested in a variety of research topics related to quantum materials from the perspectives of growth, characterization, computation and theoretical description. These positions are part of rapid growth of the institute enabled by several large federal grants and matching funding from the university that will support new faculty positions, postdoctoral fellows, graduate students, research associates and technical staff. SBQMI and the associated Max Planck-UBC-UTokyo Centre for Quantum Materials http://www.fkf.mpg.de/mpg-ubc offer a highly collaborative research environment with strong international connections.

The SBQMI Postdoctoral Fellowships offer competitive salary support and benefits (including extended health and dental coverage) and the opportunity to work with the world-leading groups at the UBC SBQMI and their international research partners. Outstanding candidates demonstrating research excellence, and ability to collaborate and bridge research perspectives, will be considered for a top-tier award affording a greater degree of autonomy including a small discretionary research fund towards their proposed project.

Interested candidates should contact principal investigators https://qmi.ubc.ca/discover/principal-investigators aligned with their interests to discuss potential projects. Candidates must have obtained, or expect to complete, their doctoral degree no later than September 2019, and be able to demonstrate a solid scientific background—as evidenced by publication record, letters of recommendation, and research proposal. Evidence of teamwork, strong communication skills, and ability to supervise students will also be considered.
