Description
The Department of Chemistry at Stony Brook University seeks to hire a tenure track faculty member at the Assistant Professor level to begin Fall 2024. Applicants with expertise in the areas of chemical biology or physical chemistry, broadly defined, are encouraged to apply. The new faculty member is expected to establish a vibrant, extramurally funded research program that synergizes with existing chemistry faculty and contributes to Stony Brook University's strategic priorities in global health, quantum information, and climate change. Candidates must have a Ph.D. and postdoctoral experience in chemistry or a closely related field, demonstrated excellence in innovative research, and a strong commitment to teaching chemistry to a diverse body of undergraduate and graduate students.

Research in the Department of Chemistry is highly interdisciplinary. Many faculty have cross-appointments in other departments in the College of Arts and Sciences, the College of Engineering and Applied Sciences, and the Renaissance School of Medicine, and at neighboring institutions such as Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) and Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory. Faculty in the department are members of various institutes and centers which serve as hubs for interdisciplinary research; these include the Institute for Chemical Biology & Drug Discovery, the Laufer Center for Physical and Quantitative Biology, the Institute for Advanced Computational Science, two DOE-funded Energy Frontier Research Centers on synthesis science and energy storage, the Center for Advanced Technology in Integrated Electric Energy Systems, and the Center for Advanced Study of Drug Action. The NIH-funded Chemistry-Biology Interface Training Program and the NSF-funded Research Traineeship Award, “Harnessing the Data Revolution”, provide additional graduate student training and connectivity. The nearby BNL provides state-of-the-art facilities for chemistry, nanoscience, and energy, including the Center for Functional Nanomaterials and the National Synchrotron Light Source II. The recently completed Medical and Research Translation building of the School of Medicine is a focal point for translational research and bioimaging.
