2 years postdoc fellowship on ‘rheology and dynamics of the Earth’s 
mantle’, ENS de Lyon, France

Starting from the microscopic properties of mineral grains, our goal is to 
construct a coherent macroscopic model of the mantle rheology to be used in 
numerical  simulations of mantle convection. The position will take place at the 
Laboratoire de Géologie de Lyon (http://lgltpe.ens-lyon.fr/) for a research in 
collaboration with Yanick Ricard (ricard@ens-lyon.fr see https://perso.ens-lyon.fr/yanick.ricard/). The candidates should have a solid background in continuum physics and could come from Physics, Material sciences or Earth sciences.
