We invite applications for the position of Postdoctoral Research Assistant on the EPSRC funded project “Topology of automated motion planning” led by Professor Michael Farber. The research will be conducted in coordination with a team from the University of Chicago led by Professor Shmuel Weinberger. We shall use topological tools (and in particular methods of cohomology theory) to analyse algorithms of making decisions in situations when the outcome is a choice made from a continuum of possibilities rather than from a discrete set of values. Duration of appointment 30 months, the start date is negotiable. Salary £31,613 – £36,098 (Grade 4). More information can be found at
