Postdoctoral Positions 2025 at CMM

The Center for Mathematical Modeling (CMM) of the University of Chile invites applications for six postdoctoral positions, at least two of which are reserved for female applicants.

CMM is one of the leading mathematical research institutions in Latin America, developing both theoretical and applied lines of research. For more information on the center see: https://www.cmm.uchile.cl

Ideal candidates should show outstanding research potential and have interests aligned with the theoretical lines of research present at CMM: Algorithms and Combinatorics, Mathematical Mechanics and Inverse Problems, Nonlinear Analysis and Partial Differential Equations, Numerical Analysis of PDEs, Optimization and Equilibrium, Probability and Ergodic Theory.

The positions are open to individuals who received their doctorate degree in 2020 or later (with exceptions for maternity leave and other special circumstances), or who expect to receive it by the starting date of the appointment. Spanish language skills are not required.

The starting date is flexible, but preferably not later than September 2025. The positions are research-focused positions and do not carry any teaching responsibilities (although teaching opportunities are available) and can be held either at the CMM’s base at the University of Chile in Santiago or at one of the associated Chilean universities. The gross monthly salary is $2,000,000 CLP. Additionally, CMM will cover travel expenses to Chile and, subject to evaluation, provide support for academic travel during the appointment.

The duration of each position is two years. In addition, during their time at CMM, the postdoc can apply for a 3-year FONDECYT postdoc scholarship by the government-funded agency ANID.

Applicants should submit a curriculum vitae (including a list of publications) and a research statement, using the Application Form below.

Applicants should also arrange for at least two letters of recommendation to be sent directly to postdocscmm@cmm.uchile.cl, identifying the name of the applicant in the subject line.

All applications and letters need to be submitted by October 27, 2024. Decisions on the positions will be communicated in January 2025. Inquiries about the position can be sent to postdocscmm@cmm.uchile.cl

CMM is committed to foster diversity at all levels. Applications from women and other STEM minority candidates are strongly encouraged. The center has a gender and diversity committee educating and training its members, promotes diversity in all its teams, and is dedicated to improving the work-life balance of its members, including access to parental leave.
