Tenure Track Faculty Position Department of Physics & Astronomy/BioMaPS Institute for Quantitative Biology
Continuing the growth of the Biological Physics group, the Department of Physics and Astronomy at Rutgers University, in partnership with the BioMaPS Institute for Quantitative Biology, invites applications from candidates for a tenure-track faculty position in Experimental Biological Physics. We seek outstanding candidates who use innovative experimental techniques to study biological phenomena at the molecular and cellular levels. A Ph. D. degree in Physics, or a closely related field, is a minimal requirement while a significant postdoctoral research experience is strongly desired. The successful candidate will teach courses in undergraduate and graduate levels in the area of specialization as well as in general physics. In addition, he/she is expected to establish a thriving research program supported by external funding. Current members of the Biological Physics group have broad interests ranging from control of gene expression to cancer biology. BioMaPS Institute has been at the focal point of strong interdisciplinary interactions between many groups in biology, chemistry, biophysics, and biomedicine at Rutgers University and the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey (UMDNJ). Review of applications will begin on Jan 19, 2010 and will continue until the position is filled. Rutgers University is an Affirmative Action/Equal Opportunity Employer. We strongly encourage women and members of minority communities to apply for this position.
