One year Post-doc Fellowship in the context of the ANR-DFG research program
MATHEMATICS: OBJECTIVITY BY REPRESENTATION (MathObRe) at the Laboratoire
d'Histoire des Sciences et de Philosophie—Archives
Henri-Poincaré, Nancy (UMR 7117, Univ. Lorraine, and CNRS: http://poincare.univ-lorraine.fr/ <http://poincare.univ-lorraine.fr/> ) or at the Institut
d'Histoire et de Philosophie des Sciences, Paris (UMR 8590, Univ. Paris 1
Panthéon-Sorbonne, and CNRS: http://www-ihpst.univ-paris1.fr/ <http://www-ihpst.univ-paris1.fr/> ). We invite
applications for a postdoctoral fellowship for 12 months in the academic
year 2014/15 (October 1st 2014 to September 30th 2015) in the context of
the project mentioned above.
The project aims to study the relation between mathematical objectivity and
the role of representation in mathematics from a philosophical point if
view, with particular attention to historical development of mathematics
and to mathematical practice. The directive lines of the project are
available here:  https://sites.google.com/site/mathobre/
 The successful candidate is expected to contribute to the realization of
this project and to reside in Nancy or Paris during the whole your of
her/his grant. The decision where she/he should reside in Nancy or Paris

topic. The grant amount (1600-1800€/month after taxes) is set by
French regulations.
We encourage to apply young scholars having received their doctoral degree

with a proven potential to conduct and publish research at a level of
international excellence.
   Applications should include:

             A (brief) letter of application including personal information
academic background, and research interests
            A proposal for a research project (3-4 pages) aiming to
contribute to MathObRe
            CV including a list of publications, talks, conferences
attended and teaching experience.
            One or two recommendation letters from a recognised scholar in
the field.
