Position description

The Department of Medicine at the University of California, San Diego (http://med.ucsd.edu/) and the Division of Infectious Diseases and Global Public Health (IDGPH) are committed to academic excellence within its faculty, staff, trainees, and student body. We are actively recruiting physicians or physician-scientists to fill the following positions:

• HIV Medicine and Infectious Diseases Clinicians
• Clinical Research Site Leader / Co-Director of the Antiviral Research Center

The Division of IDGPH is internationally recognized as a leader in HIV clinical care, prevention, and research. The Owen Clinic, in particular, is the largest and most comprehensive HIV primary care clinic in San Diego, providing care to more than 3,600 patients each year. The clinic includes several integrated specialty programs, including HIV PrEP, gender health, substance use, viral hepatitis, anal dysplasia, weight management, and HIV and aging. The division's programs feature a robust outpatient and inpatient HIV medicine service, innovative HIV clinical and outcomes research, and strong educational programs for medical students, residents, and fellows.

Responsibilities include teaching undergraduate and graduate students, residents, trainees, and Infectious Disease fellows.

The successful HIV Medicine and Infectious Diseases Clinician faculty will provide care in the clinic, inpatient, and/or outpatient settings.

The incumbent for the Clinical Research Site Leader for the NIAID-funded Clinical Trials Unit and Co-Director of the Antiviral Research Center will develop an independent research program. In addition to research responsibilities, this position includes clinical sessions at the Owen Clinic and Infectious Diseases inpatient attending duties.

The appropriate series and appointment at the Assistant, Associate, or Full Professor level will be based on the candidate's background and experience.
