ASSISTANT PROFESSOR
KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY
ECOLOGICAL GENOMICS
The Division of Biology at Kansas State University invites applications for
a tenure-track Assistant Professor position beginning in the 2003/2004
academic year. We seek an individual who will establish a strong,
extramurally funded research program using modern experimental approaches
to address questions at the interface of ecology and/or evolutionary
biology and genomics. Applicants engaged in the study of genetic model
organisms are encouraged to apply. This individual will be an integral part
of a new NSF-funded statewide research initiative in the area of Ecological
Genomics (http://www.ksu.edu/ecogen), and will contribute to graduate and
undergraduate instruction in the Division. A Ph.D. or equivalent is
required and postdoctoral training is preferred. The position will include
a competitive salary and start-up package.
The Division of Biology (http://www.ksu.edu/biology) is a large, diverse
unit of 50 faculty with a strong record of research productivity and
funding in both ecology and molecular, cellular and developmental biology
(MCDB). In the past year, Division faculty members attracted $6M in
extramural research support. The diversity of research interests within the
Division has recently led to the development of several NSF-funded
collaborative research projects that address questions at the interface of
ecology and genomics.
Kansas State University (http://www.ksu.edu) is located in the city of
Manhattan (http://www.core.manhattan.ks.us), a pleasant community of about
50,000 individuals in the Flint Hills of northeast Kansas, 2 hours from
Kansas City. The Konza Prairie Biological Station
(http://www.konza.ksu.edu) is a tallgrass prairie reserve that is the site
of an NSF-funded long-term ecological research program. Konza is 6 miles
from the University and provides numerous opportunities for ecologically
oriented research activities.
Applicants should submit a comprehensive curriculum vitae, statement of
research and teaching interests, representative publications, and have
three letters of reference sent to: Chair; Ecological Genomics Search
Committee; Division of Biology; Kansas State University; 232 Ackert Hall;
Manhattan, KS 66506-4901. Review of applications will begin on March 31,
2003 and continue until the position is filled. KSU is an Equal
Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer, and encourages diversity among its
employees.
