[DMANET] 2 Faculty positions in systems biology, genomics and informatics

TWO FACULTY POSITIONS IN SYSTEMS BIOLOGY, GENOMICS, AND INFORMATICS AT OREGON STATE UNIVERSITY

Oregon State University is searching for two faculty with enthusiasm for collaborative research and teaching at the interface between the life sciences - biological, biomedical, pharmaceutical, or environmental - and the quantitative or physical sciences. Appointees will be expected to develop independent and collaborative grant-funded research programs, at any level of scale from the molecular to the ecological. The research, teaching, and extension programs of the appointees are expected to integrate student success, diversity, and inclusion as core values. This search is part of a large cohort of new faculty hires at OSU focused on interdisciplinary computational research, and on advancement of diversity, inclusion and student success.

COMPLEX SYSTEMS IN THE LIFE AND ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES
An assistant professor (9 month, tenure track) position is available in any domain where the life or environmental sciences intersect with the quantitative or physical sciences. Complex systems in the life and environmental sciences span numerous levels of scale from metabolites, macromolecules, cells, tissues, and organisms, to populations, communities and ecosystems. Increasingly, understanding these systems requires interdisciplinary collaborative research at the intersection with quantitative or physical sciences. The appointment will reside jointly in two units, one a life or environmental sciences unit, and the other ideally in a physical or quantitative sciences unit, depending on the appointee's expertise and interest. To review the full position announcement, qualifications and detailed application go to www.oregonstate.edu/jobs/ and select posting number P00447UF. Contact: Brett Tyler (brett.tyler@oregonstate.edu).
For full consideration, please apply by September 9, 2016.


COMPUTATIONAL AND SYSTEMS BIOLOGY/PHARMACOLOGY
The College of Pharmacy, Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences, is seeking applications for an assistant professor position (12 month, tenure track) with expertise in using computational or bioinformatics tools to discover new drug targets or mechanisms of action, or uncover disease or physiological mechanisms. A Ph.D. or terminal degree in a biomedical or pharmaceutical science, computer science or statistics, biochemistry or a related discipline with relevant postdoctoral experience is required. Responsibilities include establishing and maintaining an extramurally funded research program; collaborating on initiatives and needs for expertise in computational and systems level approaches; and teaching and mentoring graduate, professional and undergraduate students. To review the full position announcement, qualifications and detailed application go to www.oregonstate.edu/jobs/ and select posting # P00444UF. Contact: Chrissa Kioussi (Chrissa.Kioussi@oregonstate.edu ). For full consideration, please apply by September 23, 2016.

OSU is an AA/EOE and has a policy of being responsive to dual-career needs.
