My academic site

This is a page of advice (and personal opinions) on applying to research math postdocs (mostly aimed towards US applications). For more advice/suggestions beyond what is offered here, one can consult, e.g., Bjorn Poonen or Lauren Williams . If any advice here contradicts what either of them (or your advisor) say, probably you should listem to them over me.
