  • Operations research
  • Algorithmic Game Theory
  • Models for Continuous Time Computations


The LIX-Qualcomm postdoctoral fellowship provides young scientists of outstanding quality an opportunity to advance their academic career as resident research fellows in one of these 11 research teams. The fellow is free to continue his/her own research, however expected to identify and integrate with a Lix research team in his/her area of interest. Applicants are encouraged to solicit contact with staff researchers in their team(s) of research in advance.

The fellowship will be for one year, with an opportunity for a fellow to present candidature for renewal for one additional year. The fellowship is supported by a competitive stipend.
