"Division Chief - Computational Medicine"

The Department of Medicine at the Stanford University School of Medicine is recruiting a Division Chief of Computational Medicine for an academic appointment as Associate Professor or Professor of Medicine in the University Medical Line, University Tenure Line, or Non-Tenured Line (Research) at Stanford University School of Medicine. The Chief will provide strategic leadership, driving innovation in artificial intelligence and machine learning, computational modeling, and statistical methods, and their application to medical decision-making across the full spectrum of research and care—from understanding molecular mechanisms to improving patient outcomes. The Chief will lead the Division's research and educational missions, fostering a culture of scientific excellence, collaboration, and translational impact. We seek a candidate who combines proven leadership with an outstanding record of academic accomplishment, a deep commitment to research and education, an understanding of the complexity of academic medicine, and the creative vision to help grow and maintain a premier Division of Computational Medicine.

Candidates should be accomplished physician investigators or scientists with a national/international reputation. Candidates should hold an MD, MD/PhD, or PhD degrees or equivalent. Candidates should have the ability to harness AI to shape the future of computational modeling and statistical methods to understand, predict and individualize medical decision-making across the spectrum from molecular mechanisms to clinical care. The Chief will be expected to recruit additional faculty as needed to support both laboratory and clinical research. The Chief is also expected to strengthen fellowship programs and to increase its focus on the research opportunities so abundant at Stanford. Established and emerging leaders in the field are highly encouraged to apply.
