ASSISTANT PROFESSORS<br />
Department of Biological Sciences<br />
The University of Alabama is among the top academic<br />
research institutions in the southeastern United States,<br />
and the Department of Biological Sciences is committed<br />
to maintaining this tradition of excellence. We currently<br />
seek applicants for tenure-track faculty positions<br />
at the rank of Assistant Professor in (1) Computational<br />
Biology, and (2) Microbial Biology.<br />
Computational Biology<br />
All areas of computational biology and bioinformatics<br />
will be considered. Applications from candidates with<br />
a demonstrated record of developing and/or applying<br />
computational approaches to study biological questions<br />
in areas including comparative genomics and transcriptomics,<br />
evolutionary genomics, phylogenomics, genetics/population<br />
genetics, cell and molecular biology, and<br />
systems biology and a demonstrated interest in collaborative<br />
research are especially encouraged to apply. Candidates<br />
must have a Ph.D. in the biological sciences or<br />
related field, and postdoctoral experience. The successful<br />
applicant will be expected to develop an active,<br />
externally funded research program and participate<br />
in the undergraduate core curriculum in addition<br />
to teaching upper-level undergraduate and graduate<br />
courses. Applicants may contact the chair of the computational<br />
biology search committee, Dr. Julie Olson<br />
at jolson@bama.ua.edu or 205-348-2633, if additional<br />
information is required.<br />
Microbial Biology<br />
All areas of microbial biology will be considered. Applicants<br />
conducting research in the areas of microbial systems<br />
biology, stress response mechanisms, host-microbe<br />
interactions, and microbial genetics using genomics,<br />
proteomics, and/or transcriptomics approaches are particularly<br />
encouraged to apply. Candidates must have<br />
a Ph.D. degree in the Biological Sciences or related<br />
field of study, postdoctoral experience, and a strong<br />
publication record. The successful applicant will be<br />
expected to develop an active, externally funded research<br />
program, interact with and enhance existing research<br />
groups in the department, and have an interest<br />
in developing quality instruction at the undergraduate<br />
and graduate levels, with course responsibilities<br />
within areas of expertise and departmental needs, including<br />
courses in the Microbiology core curriculum,<br />
such as General Microbiology and Microbial Genetics.<br />
The ideal candidate will also demonstrate the potential<br />
to develop a collaborative, multidisciplinary research<br />
program. Applicants may contact the chair of the Microbial<br />
Biology Search Committee, Dr. Stevan Marcus,<br />
atsmarcus@as.ua.edu or 205-348-8094, if additional information<br />
is required.<br />
To apply, go to https://facultyjobs.ua.edu, complete<br />
the online application (Job #0807478) or (Job<br />
#0807485), and upload (1) an application letter with a<br />
list of at least four references (including contact information)<br />
under “Other Document 1”; (2) CV; (3) statement<br />
of research interests and goals; and (4) statement<br />
of teaching interests and philosophy. Consideration of<br />
applications will begin December 15, 2012, and continue<br />
until the positions are filled. Prior to the hiring,<br />
the final candidate(s) may be required to successfully<br />
pass a pre-employment background investigation.
