*_The_ UNIVERSITY _of_ VERMONT*

*Molecular Physiology & Biophysics*

*FACULTY POSITION*

The Department of Molecular Physiology & Biophysics at the University of Vermont is seeking to recruit a *Cell Biologist/Biophysicist* at the *Assistant Professor* level on the *tenure-track,* although Associate and Full Professor candidates will be considered.

The Department has significant strength in protein structure and function with emphasis on contractile and cytoskeletal proteins. The ideal candidate will complement existing expertise in molecular biology, single molecule biophysics, and structural biology. The candidate will be expected to develop an independent, extramurally funded research program in cell biology with emphasis on *_mechanisms by which the cytoskeleton and molecular motors govern cellular function_* (e.g. cell signaling, intracellular transport, and cell division) which may be altered in human cancer and cardiovascular diseases.

The candidate must be willing to team-teach mammalian physiology in a medical and graduate school setting. Start-up funds will be competitive, and access provided to graduate students and postdoctoral fellows through departmental training grants.

The University of Vermont is an equal opportunity/affirmative action employer. Applications from women and people from diverse racial, ethnic and cultural backgrounds are encouraged.

Review of applications will begin immediately, and continue until the position is filled. Include a résumé, research plan, teaching experience, and the names of three references whose letters must be received prior to review of your application.

*_Address all inquiries and materials to:_
Dr. Robert Low, Chair Faculty Search Committee
Department of Molecular Physiology & Biophysics
Health Science Research Facility, 149 Beaumont Avenue
Burlington, VT 05405-0075 U.S A.*
