Scientific Staff

One of the most important contributions of EURANDOM to stochastics is the delivery of well-trained junior researchers. The research staff at EURANDOM mainly consists of internationally recruited postdocs with temporary appointments (typically for 2 years). In addition, a small number of graduate students is appointed (typically for 3-4 years). The choice for a majority of PDs allows for maximum flexibility in terms of research and supervision. The funding allows for setting up an institute with 20-25 junior researchers, a workshop series of 10 per year and a visitor plan for 15 visitor months per year. There are no tenured positions for senior scientists. Through the involvement of some 16 senior scientists as scientific advisors on a one-day-a-week basis, a wide range of topics is being covered and guidance for the junior staff in the different research programmes is provided.
