develop an active, undergraduate-focused research program. Teaching responsibilities will include Genetics with lab and an upper-level Cell Biology course with lab. The candidate will have the opportunity to make other contributions to the biology curriculum as well as the general undergraduate curriculum. The five-course teaching load typically consists of two lecture courses with associated labs and one lecture-only course. The new faculty member will be provided with start-up funds to establish their research program, and have office and research lab space in the newly constructed Fish Center for the Sciences . The Fish Center will contain modern teaching and research facilities, including cell culture and microscopy facilities, a vivarium, and a greenhouse. In addition to research space, the Colleges have a robust summer science program that provides support for student research opportunities in faculty-led projects.

By the time of appointment, candidates must have a Ph.D. in Cell Biology or a closely related field. Teaching experience and postdoctoral research experience are preferred.

Candidates should submit the following materials via Interfolio: 1) cover letter that describes their interest in the position and identifies existing departmental courses they are prepared to teach; new courses they could develop are also welcomed, 2) curriculum vitae, 3) contact information for three confidential professional references, 4) a statement of teaching philosophy that addresses teaching effectiveness and inclusive teaching practices (limit 2 pages), and 5) a statement of research interests (limit 2 pages).
