Faculty Positions in Biochemistry and Developmental Genetics at the
University at Albany, State University of New York
As part of a University wide expansion in the Life Sciences, the
Department of Biological Sciences (www.albany.edu/biology) invites
applications for two tenure track positions at the assistant or
associate professor level. One position will be in the Physical
Biochemistry of Biomolecules to build on the themes of structural
genomics/proteomics, biomolecular structure/function and interactions,
mechanistic enzymology, and nucleic acid chemistry and function. The
other position will be in Developmental Genetics to complement faculty
working on pattern formation, cellular differentiation, growth factors,
gene regulation and neural development. Successful candidates will be
expected to establish an externally funded research program and
participate in graduate and undergraduate teaching. Preference will be
given to those applicants whose research contributes to the University's
initiatives in comparative functional genomics and proteomics.
Available facilities include a biological imaging facility and the
University's Center for Comparative Functional Genomics
(www.albany.edu/genomics), which houses one of four NIH funded, Mutant
Mouse Resource Centers and offers state of the art core facilities for
transgenic mice, DNA microarrays, molecular biology, bioinformatics, and
biochemical/biophysical instrumentation. In addition, construction of a
new 160,000 sq ft Life Sciences research building will begin in 2001.
Please send a curriculum vitae, a research statement and at least three
letters of reference to Faculty Search Committee, Department of
Biological Sciences, University at Albany, 1400 Washington Avenue,
Albany, NY 12222. Review of applications will begin on January 15, 2001
