| The Department of Biology at Duke University and the Duke Institute of Brain Sciences (DIBS) seek applications for a tenure-track faculty position in neurobiology at a cellular/molecular level. We are especially interested in applicants using model invertebrate systems, or zebrafish, and genetic, molecular, developmental and/or systems level approaches to address problems of fundamental importance to neural function. DIBS is a cross-school, campus-wide, interdisciplinary Institute with a commitment to building an interactive community of brain science research and scholarship. The Department of Biology is in close proximity to the Medical School and the School of Engineering, and there are excellent opportunities for interactions with faculty and students from other departments and programs across campus. Successful candidates must have a Ph.D. and will be expected to establish extramurally funded research, train graduate students, and actively participate in undergraduate education and research. We anticipate hiring at the Assistant Professor level but will consider outstanding individuals at a more senior level.
Applicants should submit a curriculum vita, a brief summary of current and proposed research, reprints of 2 or 3 key publications and a statement of teaching interests via the web at www.academicjobsonline.org. Candidates should also arrange for three letters of recommendation to be uploaded to this website.
The deadline for applications is Nov. 30.
Duke University is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer; women and members of minority groups are strongly encouraged to apply. |
