As seen in the 11 September issue of Science:

Cornell University has established and endowed a new Weill Institute for Cell and Molecular Biology, www.icmb.cornell.edu.The Institute will consist
of 12 faculty (currently 7 faculty in the Institute) as the core component in a $160M new research building, designed by renowned architect Richard
Meier. Dr. Scott Emr relocated to Cornell in 2007 as the founding Director of the Institute. The goal of the Institute is to build a vibrant center of
scientific excellence in basic biology integrated with existing outstanding programs in chemistry and chemical biology, physics, computational biology
and engineering. All Institute faculty are physically located in Weill Hall, but with full appointments in academic departments, to which they contribute
teaching and service.

A tenure-track faculty position is available in the department of Biomedical Engineering (BME), www.bme.cornell.edu. BME is a new department,
located in Weill Hall, currently with 14 faculty, which was formed to act as an intellectual bridge between engineering and the physical sciences and
biology and medicine. The mission of the department is to do research and to educate students to understand the human body as an integrated system
through quantitative, multiscale analysis linking molecular biology to cellular biology to tissue/organ physiology and ultimately to the response of
physiological systems. The selected candidate will be appointed in both BME and the Institute, and must have interests and expertise consistent with
both appointments. Priority will be given to applicants trained in cell/molecular biology and engineering or the physical sciences who are using joint
experimental/computational approaches to quantitatively address a fundamental question in molecular or cell biology (e.g. cell cycle, signaling, etc.)
related to human health. Candidates whose research includes the use and development of instrumentation are also encouraged to apply.

Cornell University embraces diversity and seeks candidates who will create a climate that attracts students of all races, nationalities and genders. We
strongly encourage women and underrepresented minorities to apply. Cornell also seeks to meet the needs of dual-career couples through a Dual Career
program and is a member of the Upstate New York Higher Education Recruitment Consortium to assist with dual-career searches. Visit
http://www.upstatenyherc.org to see positions available in higher education in the Upstate New York area.

Applicants should submit a curriculum vitae (highlighting 3-5 publications with title and abstract), a research plan (2-3 pages), and a statement of
teaching interests. Personal statements summarizing teaching experience, leadership efforts, and contributions to diversity are encouraged. All
materials should be submitted electronically to https://fastbme.ece.cornell.edu. In addition, applicants must arrange for three letters of
recommendation to be sent to the same web site concurrent with the
other application materials. The committee will evaluate completed
applications received by November 30, 2009, with later applications
being considered until the position is filled. Please direct questions to
Dianna Marsh, Institute manager, at dmm20@cornell.edu.
