Josef Raviv Memorial Postdoctoral Fellowship in Computer Science, various IBM Labs (worldwide)

IBM Research is proud to announce the 2012 Josef Raviv Memorial Postdoctoral Fellowship in Computer Science and Computer Engineering in memory of Dr. Josef Raviv, the founder and director of the IBM Research - Haifa laboratory. Dr. Raviv had a distinguished research career in Information Theory and was a pioneer in the Israeli high-tech industry.

IBM will offer one postdoctoral fellowship to a recent Ph.D. who shows exceptional promise for a research career in computer science or computer engineering. The fellowship will be for one year, with an opportunity for IBM to renew for an additional year conditional on funding availability. The stipend will be highly competitive, and will include reasonable moving and travel expenses. A candidate must have received a Ph.D. degree between January 2008 and August 2012.

Depending on proposed collaborations, the Fellow will spend most of his/her time at a laboratory of his/her choice from one of IBM's Research laboratories. The Fellow will be free to follow his/her own research interests, but is expected to work closely with other IBM researchers.

Application deadline: January 6, 2013. For more information, see http://researcher.ibm.com/view_project.php?id=2941.
