Tenure-Track Faculty Position in Basic and Translational Reproductive Sciences Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology and Department of Genome Sciences and The Institute for Stem Cell Research and Regenerative Medicine

The Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology, Department of Genome Sciences, and the Institute for Stem Cell and Regenerative Medicine at the University of Washington announce a joint search for a tenure-track faculty position at the Assistant Professor rank. This is a 12-month service period position and is anticipated to start July 1, 2022. All University of Washington faculty engage in teaching, research, and service.

We seek an individual (PhD and/or MD or foreign equivalent) with training and scholarly achievements in genomics and reproductive science who has a strong commitment to research and education. We welcome applications from creative scientists who use genetic, genomic, proteomic and stem cell techniques to investigate basic mechanisms of reproductive physiology and disease— with the over-arching translational goal of fostering women’s reproductive health.

In addition to directing an innovative research program in reproductive science, qualified individuals must have excellent teaching credentials, be committed to enhancing diversity in academia, and be willing to participate in medical and graduate educational programs (~ 20% time).

Laboratory and office space will be provided by the Research Division of the Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology, which occupies approximately 6,000 sq. ft. of laboratory space at the South Lake Union Campus of the University of Washington, and the Institute for Stem Cell and Regenerative Medicine, which occupies several floors of laboratory space at the Campus.
