Associate Professor or Professor and DiNovo-Deak Endowed Chair of Plant Science and Food Security

4 months ago

Dayton, United States University of Dayton Full time

Associate Professor or Professor and DiNovo-Deak Endowed Chair of Plant Science and Food Security
Apply nowJob No: 501944
Work Type: Faculty Full Time
Location: Dayton, OH
Category: Faculty
Department: Biology - 208100

Position Summary:
The College of Arts and Sciences invites applications for the inaugural DiNovo-Deak Endowed Chair of Plant Science and Food Security. This inaugural endowed chair will have the opportunity to conduct impactful work on the application of plant or crop science and to join an active and diverse research landscape at the University of Dayton to increase food security in regions of the world with the greatest need. This inaugural endowed chair is a tenured position at the Associate Professor or Professor rank within the Department of Biology beginning January 16, 2025.If this opportunity interests you, apply today.

The fundamental goal of the DiNovo-Deak Endowed Chair of Plant Science and Food Security is to make advancements in applied plant or crop science that can increase global food security by improving the resilience or yield of crops utilized in at-risk regions of the world. Global population growth and climate change expose hundreds of millions of people to hunger and food insecurity, particularly in developing countries. Plant science and specifically crop science play a critical role in addressing a wide range of related challenges associated with this complex issue, including crop resilience and yield, crop diversification, as well as drought and salinity tolerance. Through teaching, applied research and practical implementation, this endowed chair will focus on improving food security for the world’s most vulnerable populations through plant or crop science and other fields as needed to improve the likelihood of success.

The DiNovo-Deak Chair of Plant Science and Food Security will test and implement their research by working directly with subsistence farmers in an impoverished region of the world with the specific goal of improving crop yield and quality in real-world applications that can be repeated and shared with other subsistence farmers. This chair will have a research agenda embedded in the community they serve to build trust, collaboration, and to amplify their impact.

Campus Resources/Collaborations

The DiNovo-Deak Endowed Chair will join an active and diverse research landscape at the University of Dayton with multiple communities for potential interactions. The Department of Biology includes colleagues with research programs in microbiology, plant biology, and ecology. Across the University, the Science and Engineering Catalyst Center supports faculty collaborations in multiple research themes, including environmental research. The Hanley Sustainability Institute brings together faculty advancing sustainability in broad terms, including food security. The Global and Intercultural Affairs and the Human Rights Center both have interdisciplinary programmatic collaborations with international partners committed to social justice. The University of Dayton Research Institute, a sponsored research arm of the University encompasses multiple fields of science and engineering, conducting ~$170 million in sponsored research annually.
