The University of North Carolina at Charlotte invites applications for faculty<br />
at the Assistant or Associate level in the Department of Bioinformatics and<br />
Genomics in the College of Computing and Informatics. The Department<br />
seeks candidates with a proven research record in Computational Systems<br />
Biology, directed toward the theoretical modeling and simulation of complex<br />
biological systems, alone or in combination with experimental approaches.<br />
The successful candidate should have an earned doctorate and be eligible<br />
for appointment at the rank of Assistant or Associate professor. We seek<br />
applicants with a commitment to excellence in graduate and undergraduate<br />
teaching and mentorship who have exceptional computational/analytic skills to<br />
meet teaching requirements in one or more of the following areas: Statistics,<br />
Programming, Structural Biology, Big Data Analytics as applied to biological<br />
datasets, Machine Learning, and Integrative Systems Biology.<br />
Research areas of interest include the development and application of data<br />
analytic and theoretical methods, mathematical modeling, and simulation<br />
techniques. Research should address important biological data analysis needs<br />
such as structural and functional modeling of biomolecules and molecular<br />
interactions, or integration of heterogeneous data sets into models of complex<br />
systems, to address issues of health, agricultural productivity, and the<br />
environment.<br />
We offer a collegial environment, excellent facilities, a competitive start-up<br />
package, and a competitive nine-month salary commensurate with experience.<br />
Applications must be made electronically at https://jobs.uncc.edu (position<br />
#1732) and must include a CV, contact information for 4 references, and<br />
statements on research and teaching. Preliminary inquiries may be addressed<br />
to Dr. Cynthia Gibas (cgibas@uncc.edu). The University of North Carolina at<br />
Charlotte is an EOE/AA employer and an NSF ADVANCE Institution.<br />

and Analytics. The successful applicant will have an earned doctorate with<br />
an exceptional record of achievement and will be expected to maintain<br />
an externally funded research program that will catalyze a larger group<br />
of interdisciplinary scientists. The responsibilities of the position include<br />
teaching quantitative skills such as programming and statistical modeling at<br />
the graduate and undergraduate level.<br />
We offer a collegial environment, excellent facilities, a competitive start<br />
up package, and a competitive nine-month salary commensurate with<br />
experience.<br />
Preliminary inquiries about the position can be made to Dan Janies via<br />
email djanies@uncc.edu. However, formal applications must be made<br />
electronically at https://jobs.uncc.edu (position #1074) and must include<br />
