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:

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
