Eligibility: Candidates interested to carry out research in physics of turbulent flows can apply.

Scholarship Open for International Students: French citizens can apply for this postdoctoral fellowship.

Scholarship Description: The Lagrange Laboratory is a joint unit of the Nice Observatory, CNRS and the University of Nice-Sophia Antipolis. It is a multi-disciplinary department with activities in astrophysics, astronomy, fluid dynamics and signal and image processing. Members of the Fluid and Plasma team works on various fundamental questions related to the description and modeling of turbulence in hydrodynamics, magneto-hydrodynamics and plasmas. The team is supporting a postdoctoral fellowship on a subject related to fundamental questions in hydrodynamic turbulence and/or turbulent transport and related fields. The successful candidate is expected to develop collaboration with several team members. He/She will have access to the team computational means and existing results of direct numerical simulations. The team will provide basic support for travel and small equipment.

Duration of award(s): The successful candidate will benefit from a fixed-term contract as a CNRS employee for 2 Years.

What does it cover? The successful candidate is expected to develop collaboration with several team members. He/She will have access to the team computational means and existing results of direct numerical simulations. The team will provide basic support for travel and small equipment.
