Offer Description

Czech Technical University in Prague (CTU) now offers a new fellowship program, the CTU Global Postdoc Fellowship. This new and attractive two-year fellowship-program offers excellent researchers who have recently completed their PhD the chance to continue their research career at CTU. Fellows receive a two year fellowship and become members of a team led by a mentor. The fellowship aims at external international scientists who are currently conducting research abroad. Applicants must have completed their PhD within the last seven years. The fellowship aims at authors (co-authors) of three or more publications in a journal with IF. 

The postdoc is expected to work on problems related to sampling of combinatorial objects with applications in (probabilistic) programming languages and neuro-symbolic deep learning. The work will be at the boundary of computational logic and combinatorics. The postdoc can focus either on the theoretical side (characterizing classes of structures that can be sampled in polynomial time) or the practical side of the problem (making the algorithms “practically” efficient).

The lab fosters a welcoming and stimulating environment, comprising approximately 15 people, mostly consisting of PhD students and postdocs of mixed nationalities and genders. English serves as the primary working language. A substantial portion of total salaries is comprised of performance-related bonuses, which augment the quoted base pay.
