    Opportunity: Multiple tenured & tenure-track faculty openings at all levels @ Emory University--Atlanta, GA (US)
    Submitted by Tianwei Yu; posted on Friday, October 30, 2009
    BACKGROUND:
    As part of a directed expansion, the Department of Biostatistics and Bioinformatics is seeking to fill multiple tenured and tenure-track faculty openings at all levels (full, associate, and assistant professors).

    Collaborative opportunities exist throughout the Woodruff Health Sciences Center including the School of Medicine, the Winship Cancer Institute, Yerkes Primate Center, the Vaccine Center, and the Center for AIDS Research. In addition, the new Center for Comprehensive Informatics offers close collaboration relating to the integration of clinical medicine, biomedical informatics, imaging, and high-throughput technologies. Research opportunities also exist within the Rollins School of Public Health departments of epidemiology, behavioral sciences and health education, health policy and management, environmental and occupational health and global health.

    The department participates in the Atlanta Clinical and Translational Research Institute, serves as the Data Coordinating Center for several NIH clinical trials, and operates the Biostatistics Consulting Center. The department houses the Center for Biomedical Imaging Statistics with links to imaging research across the health sciences. The department currently has 15 doctoral faculty and 9 masters level associate faculty members with primary appointments. The department offers a doctoral graduate program in biostatistics from the Graduate School of Arts and Science, and masters degrees in public health and public health informatics. A concentration in bioinformatics is available at the doctoral level.

    We are recruiting for faculty in all areas, but with particular emphasis on the interface of Biostatistics and Bioinformatics and the development and application of quantitative methods for high-dimensional data analysis. Areas of interest include: genomics, proteomics, informatics, computational biology, machine learning, clinical trials, Bayesian analysis, imaging, statistical genetics, infectious disease modeling, spatial statistics, reproducible research, and statistical theory.

    RESPONSIBILITIES:
    Responsibilities associated with these positions include methodological and collaborative research, teaching, and the supervision of graduate students.

    REQUIREMENTS:
    - Doctoral degree in biostatistics/statistics or a related field
    - Strong record of or high potential for methodologic research
    - Intent and ability for scientific collaborative research and graduate level teaching
    - Excellent oral and written communication skills
    - Candidates for associate professor or full professor should have an established record of funded research, collaboration, and teaching.

    SALARY & BENEFITS:
    Salary and rank commensurate with experience.

    HOW TO APPLY:
    A letter summarizing experience and research interests, and a complete curriculum vitae including contact information for three references should be sent to:

    Lance A. Waller, Ph.D., Rollins Professor and Chair
    Emory University,
    Department of Biostatistics and Bioinformatics,
    1518 Clifton Rd., NE,
    Atlanta, GA 30322
    lwaller@emory.edu.
    http://www.sph.emory.edu/hpbios.html

    DEADLINE:
    Consideration of applications will begin immediately, and applications will be considered until positions are filled.

    The Rollins School of Public Health of Emory University is an equal opportunity/affirmative action employer. The department has a culturally diverse faculty and strongly encourages applications from women and minority candidates.
