Sarafan ChEM-H is an independent institute at Stanford University, formed in partnership with the Schools of Medicine, Humanities and Sciences, and Engineering. More information about the institute can be found on https://chemh.stanford.edu/. The Institute is seeking applicants for a tenure-track faculty position at the junior level (Assistant or untenured Associate Professor). Applicants are expected to have earned a Ph.D. or M.D. degree in any discipline of science, engineering or medicine.
We will consider applicants knowledgeable in any frontier area of research at the interface between chemistry, biology, engineering, and medicine with research programs that would fit in any department in the School of Engineering or the School of Medicine. We are particularly interested in candidates who plan to use computational approaches to create new insights at the interface of chemistry, biology, engineering and medicine or who plan to focus on new drug delivery technologies.
The successful candidate will have their primary appointment in a department within the School of Engineering or the School of Medicine. They will be expected to teach within this department in a manner that is consistent with standard practices for tenure-track faculty within that department. The candidate will also be expected to develop a world-class research program in molecular scale science. Applicants should be seeking a stimulating interdisciplinary environment in which to pursue teaching and research. We anticipate that the faculty member will develop interactions with faculty not only in their home department but also in other departments and Schools at Stanford and at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory.
Applications should be addressed to Professor Carolyn Bertozzi, Search Committee Chair, and include:
- A curriculum vitae (including research accomplishments, teaching experience, and publications)
- A description of future research plans (4 pages)
- A description of future teaching and mentoring plans/philosophies (1 page)
- The names and contact information of three referees who will be contacted to submit letters
