 Applications are sought for a postdoctoral position in theoretical and
 computational physics, to commence as soon as possible.

 The successful applicant will work in a project involving modelling of
 complex systems, at the Centro de Fisica Teorica e Computacional da
 Universidade de Lisboa.

 The objective is to develop computational tools to study spatially
 extended discrete dynamical processes, focussing on models of epidemic
 spread in finite populations and/or on-lattice protein folding
 simulations.

 Applicants should have a PhD in physics, applied mathematics, chemistry
 or engineering, with experience in scientific computing, preferably
 non-linear dynamics or statistical physics simulations. Experience of
 parallel computing will be a plus.

 The Centro de Fisica Teorica e Computacional da Universidade de Lisboa is
 located in a recently extended and renovated building, on the main campus
 in the north of the city. The Centro has excellent computing facilities
 and a very good library. Lisbon is a charming city with a medium to high
 cost of living.

 Salary is according to the University of Lisbon scale for post-docs
 (approximately 1500 euros per month). Reconduction for an additional year
 is possible.

 Applicants should send a CV and two letters of recommendation as soon as
 possible, but no later than August 30, 2004 to:
