Postdoctoral position in cyrptography, Stockholm (Sweden)

The School of Computer Science and Communications (CSC) at the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH), Stockholm, Sweden, is seeking a post-doctoral researcher in Cryptography.

In the Theory Group of CSC we do research in topics such as complexity theory and approximation algorithms, computer and network security, cryptography, programming languages, and formal methods. The post-doctoral research may be done on foundational topics, e.g., relating basic cryptographic notions, and/or more practically oriented topics, e.g., improving the efficiency or proving the security of concrete constructions. The successful candidate should have a PhD degree in a subject relevant for the research, such as cryptography or related areas of complexity theory. The position is initially for one year.

To receive full consideration, the application should be received no later than August 31, 2010. Detailed instructions on how to apply can be found at http://www.csc.kth.se/~dog/postdoc/official.html.
