post-doctoral positions
I recently posted a message about the availability of some post-doc
positions on this list. I gave a reference to the University personnel
department web pages for further details. Unfortunately, as soon as I
had done so the personnel department expunged this information. I
therefore repeat the posting, including some further details of the
positions.
Best wishes,
Samson Abramsky
