    Post-Docs of Excellence: Hadamard Lecturers

    These positions are intended for young mathematicians who have demonstrated their excellence in the development and transmission of knowledge. They are long-term post-docs (3 years) with a low teaching load (corresponding to one third of the statutory service of a Maître de Conférence des Universités).

    Hadamard lecturers are expected to be able to teach mathematics in either French or English (if they can teach in both languages, that's ideal).

    Applications are to be submitted online below when the annual call for applications is launched. The winners are selected by a jury, who first make a pre-selection on the basis of their application files, then rank the pre-selected candidates on the basis of an audition to check their ability. All auditions are conducted remotely, to ensure fairness and avoid long-distance travel.

    To be eligible, candidates must have defended their thesis before September 1 of their recruitment year.

    The application must include:

    • A curriculum vitae with a list of publications,

    • A research program,

    • A wish to be assigned to one of the FMJH-affiliated laboratories listed below,

    • The name of a scientific contact in the chosen laboratory,

    • The names of one or two referees,

    • A letter of motivation linking the assignment request to the research program.

     

    List of FMJH-affiliated laboratories to which a Hadamard Lecturer can be assigned:

     

    To identify the themes represented in these laboratories, please consult the interactive map of mathematical research on the Paris-Saclay Campus.

    NB: This is the list of laboratories affiliated to the FMJH that are immersed in teaching departments. The only exception is the LAG at IHES. It is agreed that the teaching of a Hadamard lecturer assigned to the IHES will take place at the Institut de Mathématique d'Orsay, located in the immediate vicinity of the IHES.

    ​​​​​​​To apply

    Please Note: Guidelines for Applicants to the 2027 Postdoctoral Fellowship Calls for Applications

    The emergence of generative AI as a key player in research is raising questions within the scientific community in general, and the mathematical community in particular.

    The FMJH wishes to assure all applicants to its calls for applications for postdoctoral fellowships that the relevant selection panels will review all applications fairly, regardless of whether the publications cited in them were produced using AI. It also encourages applicants to specify in their applications how they use AI, if they do so.

    The selection panels will pay particular attention to the applicants' understanding of their own field and their ability to explain their results.
