TENURE TRACK FACULTY POSITION
ANIMAL PHYSIOLOGY
TUFTS UNIVERSITY
The Department of Biology at Tufts University invites applications for a tenure track Assistant Professor in Animal Physiology to begin in September, 2011. We seek a creative scholar whose research program focuses on elucidating the mechanisms by which animals (vertebrates or invertebrates) interact with, or adapt to, their environment. Possible research areas include neuroethology, endocrinology, biomechanics and physiological ecology. Applicants should employ an integrative approach that addresses how systems function across multiple levels of biological organization.
The successful candidate is expected to develop an active externally funded research program involving graduate and undergraduate students. A clear commitment to teaching excellence at the undergraduate and graduate levels is essential. Doctoral degree and a record of research productivity required. Postdoctoral experience preferred.
Tufts University is a private, coeducational institution, whose main campus serves approximately 4,600 undergraduates and over 1,500 graduate students in a broad spectrum of programs. We are located in the towns of Medford and Somerville, within the Greater Boston metropolitan area.
The Biology Department has 21 full time faculty members working in diverse specialties spanning molecular, organismal and population biology. We maintain an active graduate training program at the master’s and doctoral levels. We are strongly committed to quality research and education in basic and applied biology. The department is closely allied with other programs including Biomedical Engineering, Chemistry, Environmental Studies, Psychology and Computer Science. Individual members of the department also maintain active collaborations with colleagues at the Tufts Schools of Engineering, Medicine and Veterinary Medicine.
To Apply: Applicants should submit the following in a single PDF file: 1) a cover letter, 2) curriculum vitae, 3) statement of research interests and plans and 4) statement of teaching experience and philosophy. Submission of 1-3 select reprint pdfs is encouraged, but not required.
Applications and three letters of reference should be sent to karin.murphy@tufts.edu.
Review of applications begins November 30, 2010, and continues until the position is filled.
Tufts University is an Affirmative Action/Equal Opportunity employer. We are committed to increasing the diversity of our faculty. Members of underrepresented groups are strongly encouraged to apply.
