Assistant, Associate, or Full Professor of Genetics

The Department of Genetics at Stanford University invites applications to fill up to two tenure-track positions at the Assistant, Associate, and/or Full Professor level. Faculty Rank will be determined by the qualifications and experience of the successful candidate(s).

The predominant criterion for appointment in the University Tenure Line is a major commitment to research and teaching.

Although all areas of research will be considered, we are particularly interested in candidates who have a Ph.D. and/or M.D. degree who have a record of achievement in developing or using innovative approaches for basic, translational and clinical sciences in the broad areas of genetics, genomics, other “omics”, and precision health.  Candidates should be highly interactive, be expected to run a successful, independent research program of excellence and to participate in teaching and other activities in the department.

The Department of Genetics at the Stanford University School of Medicine offers a highly collegial and interdisciplinary environment that spans clinical medicine, translational medicine, human genetics, computational biology, model-organism genetics, microbial genetics, gene regulation, models of disease and genome-scale approaches.
