A Ph.D. is required by the start of the contract. We are especially interested in candidates whose work involves rodent models, with potential clinical/medical applications.

Bates values innovative, inclusive pedagogy and active scholarship, and we seek applicants who can successfully integrate undergraduates in their research. Dedicated laboratory facilities and access to an animal facility are provided for this position.
