Dear Colleague,

I am writing to announce an opening for a postdoctoral researcher in the

condensed matter theory (CMT) group of the University of Colorado at

Boulder Department of Physics. I would greatly appreciate your bringing

this opportunity to the attention of any strong candidates. The

successful candidate will carry out research in collaboration with the

faculty of the CMT group, who are Victor Gurarie, Michael Hermele and Leo

Radzihovsky, and will have the opportunity to interact and collaborate

with faculty in related areas, including Oliver DeWolfe, Ana Maria Rey,

Paul Romatschke, and others. Candidates with interests and experience in

any area of CMT are encouraged to apply. Research areas of particular

interest for this position include, but are not limited to: novel phases

of quantum matter, topological order, quantum magnetism, strongly

correlated materials, many-body physics of ultra-cold atoms, quantum field

theory, and the intersection of quantum information science with condensed

matter theory.

The position is expected to begin in Fall 2014 (although this is

flexible). Review of applications will begin on November 1, 2013.

Interested candidates should send -- as soon as possible -- a CV, list of

publications, and a brief statement of research interests to Prof. Michael

Hermele at hermele@colorado.edu, and arrange for two or more letters of

recommendation to be sent to the same email address.

Candidates must ALSO apply officially through the University of Colorado's

online jobs system at the following link:

Please note the following instructions for filling out the online application:

1. Recommendation letters do not need to be uploaded to the

online system. Please do not specify any references in the online system.

2. You will need to upload three documents in order to submit your

application. These are a curriculum vitae, proof of degree, and "Document 1."

For proof of degree, it is sufficient to upload a pdf file stating

when/where you received your PhD degree, or when/where you expect to

receive it. For "Document 1," you should upload your statement of

research interests. (The system labels Document 1 as a letter of

recommendation, but please ignore this, and upload your research statement.)

For further information or with any questions, please contact Prof.

Sincerely,Michael Hermele
