postdoctoral program of I-CORE Algo, CNR and ENEA

Leonardo Fibonacci fellowships - a joint postdoctoral program of
I-CORE Algo, CNR and ENEA
http://www.icore-algo.org.il/content/post-doc-programs
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I-CORE Algo ? the Israeli Center of Research Excellence in algorithms, CNR ?
the National Research Council of Italy and ENEA ? the Italian National agency
for new technologies, Energy and sustainable economic development
are seeking excellent candidates for postdoctoral fellowships.

The joint program is supported by the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs,
and one of its objectives is strengthening the bi-national cooperation
in science
and technology between Italy and Israel, under the auspices of the
Italian-Israeli Agreement on Industrial,
Scientific and Technological Cooperation. CNR and ENEA participate in
the program to help open new
paths towards excellence for young researchers, some of whom will
eventually join the Italian research system.

The Leonardo Fibonacci fellowships are named after the Italian
mathematician Leonardo Fibonacci,
arguably the greatest European mathematician of the middle ages.

I-CORE Algo is part of the I-CORE program, initiated by the Government
of Israel and adopted by Israel's
Council of Higher Education in order to reinforce Israel's
intellectual capacities and promote synergy among Israel's
leading research centers. The members of the center are some of
Israel's most exceptional computer scientists,
from The Blavatnik School of Computer Science in Tel Aviv University,
The Rachel and Selim Benin School of
Computer Science and Engineering in The Hebrew University of
Jerusalem, and the Faculty of Mathematics and
Computer Science in Weizmann Institute of Science.


SELECTION PROCESS
Researches of any nationality can apply to the program, given that
they obtained their PhD (Dottorato di
Ricerca) from an institution in Italy no longer than 2 years before
the date of the application, or will obtain
it within 3 months after the application. EU nationals can apply
independently of where they have obtained their
degree, within the same temporal frame. Equal opportunity is a
principle underlying the whole selection process.
Key criteria for the selection will be

1. the scientific potential of the candidates, as assessed by their
academic record and thesis, by publications,
if any, by previous research experience and by any previous awards and honors.

2. the expected benefits of the fellowship for the trainees, as
indicated also by a short research statement (or
tentative project) submitted with the application.

Reference letters are requested from at least three recommenders and
will contribute to assess both criteria.

The Fellowships will be awarded initially for a period of up to twelve
months, and they may be prolonged, after
consideration, within the same program or other programs of the I-CORE center.
The Leonardo Fibonacci fellows will perform their postdoctoral
research in one of the I-CORE in Algorithms
institutions. Salaries and benefits are competitive and assistance
with visas and housing will be provided.

The selection Committee (3 members, from the CNR, the I-CORE in
Algorithms and the Embassy of Italy in Israel)
will choose between applicants, on the basis of the above criteria.
The selected candidates will submit a brief activity report to the
Committee every three months.


RESEARCH SCOPE

The topics of research in I-CORE in Algorithms include (but are not
limited to): all variety of algorithms
(optimization, online, streaming, approximation, randomized, geometric
and more), cryptography, security and
privacy, algorithmic game theory, quantum computing, networking and
distributed computing, databases, machine
learning and computer vision.

The selected candidates will be able to choose which of the center
members will be their advisor.


APPLICATION PROCEDURE
To apply, please send the attached form (as .pdf) by e-mail to both

icorealgo@cs.tau.ac.il and lucilla.alagna @esteri.it

In addition, applicants should ensure that their recommenders email
their letters (as pdf files) to the email
addresses above, with the subject line "<candidate_name>:
recommendation". (It is the applicant's responsibility
to ensure that the letters are sent; letters will not be solicited directly.)

The deadline is 15th December 2013, 24:00 (at GMT+1)
