*THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA AT BERKELEY*

*Department of Molecular and Cell Biology
Faculty Position in Stem Cell Biology*

The Department of Molecular and Cell Biology at Berkeley is seeking applicants for a faculty position in stem cell biology. Candidates at both the junior (non-tenured) and senior (tenured) faculty level will be considered. In addition to evidence of a strong research program, candidates are expected to have an interest in undergraduate and graduate teaching. The position will be a 9-month academic year appointment.

With regard to research, we seek individuals studying any aspect of stem cell biology, including (but not limited to) the use of stem cells to develop models of human biology or disease, molecular mechanisms of transcriptional regulation in pluripotent and differentiating stem cells, the regulation of stem cell renewal and differentiation during development, and the biology of cancer stem cells. The precise area is less important than a demonstrated record of excellence, originality and productivity in research. The successful candidate could choose to affiliate with any one of the five Divisions within the Department (Biochemistry and Molecular Biology; Genetics, Genomics and Development; Cell and Developmental Biology; Immunology and Pathogenesis; and Neurobiology). The stem cell biology program is to be housed in a new building currently nearing completion, the Li Ka-Shing Center for Biomedical and Health Sciences, which will also house programs in infectious disease, cancer biology, neuroscience and computational biology.

Applications and letters of reference should be submitted online through http://mcb.berkeley.edu. Applications should include a curriculum vitae; a list of publications; copies of three significant publications; a brief description of research accomplishments; and a statement of research objectives and teaching interests. In addition, junior applicants applying for a non-tenured position should arrange to have three letters of reference submitted. Potential reviewers should be referred to the Statement of Confidentiality found at: http://apo.chance.berkeley.edu/evalltr.html. The deadline for applications is January 4, 2010.

_The University of California is an Affirmative Action/Equal Opportunity Employer._
