UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, DAVIS, SCHOOL OF MEDICINE
Department of Physiology and Membrane Biology

The Department of Physiology and Membrane Biology, at the University of California, Davis School of Medicine, seeks to fill two, tenure-track, entry-level faculty positions at the Assistant Professor level as part of our Membrane Biology Initiative.

Candidates must possess the degree of Ph.D. and/or M.D. and have completed at least two years of postdoctoral training demonstrating both creativity and productivity.

The successful candidates are expected to develop and maintain a high quality, extramurally funded research program, to participate in and achieve excellence in the teaching of medical and graduate students and to provide service consistent with their stage of career. The successful candidates will have a demonstrable record of research excellence, creativity and innovation and the ability to communicate effectively as an educator and colleague and demonstrate the ability to work cooperatively and collegially within a diverse environment adhering to policies and procedures.

The areas of research emphasis targeted by this recruitment are membrane transporter, channel or receptor structure-function analysis and or modern proteomic and or genomic approaches to the study of membrane transporter, channel or receptor regulation through post-translational modification. The research interests of current departmental faculty are focused in the areas of cardiovascular physiology and neuroscience, with an emphasis on membrane phenomena.   It is expected that the successful candidate will complement and extend the existing strengths of the Department and integrate with one or more of the School’s strategic focus areas (Cardiovascular, Neuroscience, Infectious Disease, Cancer and Membrane Biology).  Individuals that possess the potential to interface with and promote translational studies, facilitated through our CTSC, in partnership with clinical scientists are encouraged to apply.  The department web address is:

http://www.ucdmc.ucdavis.edu/physiology/

Letters of interest, curriculum vitae, up to three representative reprints, synopsis of research plans (past, present and future goals), summary of teaching experience/philosophy, and the names/addresses of five references should be forwarded electronically to: 

Peter M. Cala, Ph.D., Professor and Chair, c/o Department of Physiology and Membrane Biology, c/o, Sandy Higby, Chief Administrative Officer at: sehigby@ucdavis.edu

These positions will be “Open Until Filled”.  For full consideration, applications should be received by November 30, 2009.   The University of California is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer.
