BioInspired Institute Cluster Hires

The BioInspired Institute at Syracuse University seeks to fill eight (8) new positions as part of an ambitious Invest Syracuse Cluster Hire Initiative in the broad area of bioinspired science and technology. As an integral part of this investment, Syracuse University is actively recruiting candidates for open rank and tenure-track faculty positions in Mathematical Analysis, Drug Delivery, Functional Materials, Brain Organoid Biology, Computational and Medicinal Chemistry, and Bio-Inspired Physics. Faculty hired into these positions will build on our existing strengths in three focus areas: Drug Discovery, Mechanics of Development and Disease, and Smart Materials. These hires will affiliate with the multidisciplinary BioInspired Institute, which spans multiple departments in the College of Arts and Sciences and the College of Engineering and Computer Science. We seek candidates who will foster diversity and build an inclusive climate in research and teaching while promoting world-class, interdisciplinary research to address grand challenges in health, medicine, and materials innovation.
