are assigned in accordance with the workload guidelines laid out in the pattern of administration of each faculty member’s tenure initiation unit (TIU) and, as appropriate, regional campus; obligations will include research, service and/or teaching or clinical practice. These faculty will have earned doctorate or other terminal degree in the relevant field of study or possession of equivalent experience.

Qualifications
Ph.D. and/or M.D degree, post-doctoral training, a commitment to basic, translational and/or clinical research and a history of strong research productivity in strategic target areas of investigation.

NIH (or equivalent) funded investigators are highly encouraged to apply.

We highly value Team-Science and individuals who seek opportunities to develop strong extramurally funded collaborations and innovative programs with physicians and basic scientists in and outside the department with existing programs and participate in training grants and program project grants in the future.

Individuals with innovative applications of Artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, bioinformatics and computational models in perioperative medicine in targeted areas with an NIH or equivalent funding record are also encouraged to apply.

We also encourage highly motivated, ambitious, early-stage investigators to apply with a solid background and track record of productivity, the ability to establish an innovative independent research program, and to secure NIH (or equivalent funding).

Mindset and track record reflecting adherence to standards of professional ethical conduct in aggregate, accomplishments should be sufficiently compelling that the appointee is judged to have significant potential to attain tenure and a distinguished record as a faculty member in the department.

Salary commensurate with previous training and experience.

Faculty interested in a tenure track faculty position are encouraged to apply. Preference will be given to qualified individuals pursuing a tenure-track faculty position as Assistant Professors if they are highly productive scientists with notable publications in impact journals, who have demonstrated potential to succeed on the tenure track (i.e. with a K Award, K99/R00, R03, or other competitive early-career awards in Anesthesiology such as FAER, IARS, ASA, or Foundation grants, etc.) and develop an independent research program or faculty at advanced rank who have demonstrated a record of sustained NIH R01 funding as Principal Investigators (or equivalent competitive funding such as PCORI, DOD, NSF, ACS, FDA, SBIR/R44-Phase studies).

Opportunities exist for recruitment of qualified investigators in a leadership position (directorship role) in emerging or new areas of investigation with great potential for growth and collaboration.
