We are seeking an outstanding individual with demonstrated research strength in any area of molecular biology and/or cell biology addressing significant biological problems. Candidates with specific research expertise in cell biology, molecular biology (including gene regulation), or microbiology (including infectious disease, host-microbe interactions) are especially encouraged to apply. The successful candidate will be expected to develop and maintain a high-quality, nationally recognized independent research program with a strong potential for attracting extramural funding. The candidate must also be able to contribute to teaching introductory and advanced courses in one or more areas including microbiology, molecular biology, genetics, or cell biology.

The candidate is expected to be highly collaborative and able to integrate well with current faculty in the department. Some prior teaching experience is preferred. The Department, College, and URI are committed to building and supporting a diverse, inclusive, and equitable community of students and scholars. Our department seeks candidates whose principles align with that commitment. Groups underrepresented in the field of Cell and Molecular Biology are strongly encouraged to apply.
