Dear Matthew,

 

I'm writing to you because I've found your Machine Learning team references in several sources online. 

 

I'm a researcher focused on quantum technology. One of the emerging topics in the field is, can quantum phenomena be harnessed to improve machine learning tasks. We have a new project starting up to look into this, and we're recruiting a postdoc. This postdoc need not have any background in quantum physics; a background in ML or optimisation is just as suitable. So I was hoping that you might be able to circulate this advert around your group and any other ML/optimisation teams you know of.

 

The deadline is coming up: noon 1st September. I attach a PDF -- is it possible for you to circulate this to CQT as an email attachment?

 

As you can see from the ad, the main points are

-- 3 Year Postdoc available immediately or as soon as the applicant is free.

-- Held in Oxford with strong international links

-- It's a theory post but the applicant doesn't need to be a quantum person, could be someone from maths/computer science background.

-- DEADLINE 1st Sept

-- More info at QuOpaL.com

 

Thanks! 

 

Regards,

Simon.
