Faculty Search
The California Institute for Quantitative Biomedical Research (QB3) at UCSF seeks candidates for multiple tenure track faculty positions at the Assistant Professor level. We seek exceptional individuals working in the area of Systems Biology, broadly defined, working on quantitative and computational analysis of biological systems and networks. Candidates are expected to hold a PhD or MD degree, or equivalent, and to have demonstrated achievement in their fields. The successful candidate will be expected to establish a dynamic research program and to be an excellent teacher in both graduate and professional school courses.
Applicants should submit a curriculum vitae, 1-2 page summary of research accomplishments, a 1-2 page description of future research plans, and copies of major publications. Applicants should also have three to five letters of recommendation. We encourage women and minorities to apply. The University of California San Francisco is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer. Please send applications and reference letters to Chair, Search Committee, c/o Ms. Leslie Spector, UCSF, BH-403E, 1700-4th St, MC 2542, San Francisco, CA 94158.
Deadline for submissions: November 1, 2007
