Tenure track Professor (open-rank) and Donald R. Dickey Chair in Vertebrate Biology
POSITION DESCRIPTION
The Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology (EEB) at UCLA, an emerging Hispanic Serving Institution, is searching for a tenure track Professor (open rank) in Vertebrate Biology. The appointed individual will be the Donald R. Dickey Curator and Endowed Chair in Vertebrate Biology, an endowed position to steward, curate, and maintain the Donald R. Dickey Bird and Mammal Collection. The Dickey Bird and Mammal Collection is one of the world's best bird and mammal collections from the American Southwest and Central America. It houses nearly 64,000 specimens from North and Central America and Pacific islands. Also included in the collection are Donald R. Dickey's rare photographs, books, and field notes. Candidates with expertise in ecology or evolutionary biology, broadly defined, will be considered. Because this position is established among EEB, the Dickey Collection, and the UCLA DataX initiative, [], candidates must have a Ph.D. degree in a relevant discipline, an integrative collections-based research program that harnesses the power of new technologies in data acquisition, curation, and analysis of natural history collections (e.g., phenoscaping, morphometrics, eco-evolutionary modeling, or digital imagery), and a background in the curation and analysis of complex, large, and multidimensional datasets. The ideal candidate should have experience with the curation, collection, and preparation of mammalian and/or bird specimens and museum data management. The Dickey Chair will be responsible for the supervision of the collections manager. The successful candidate will be expected to develop an externally funded research program, pursue institutional grants to grow the impact of the collection locally, regionally, and nationally, and teach and mentor at both the undergraduate and graduate levels, actively using the Dickey collection. We are especially interested in candidates whose research complements existing departmental strengths in inclusive education and who will develop courses that satisfy the UCLA undergraduate diversity requirement and/or courses that include topics of diversity, equity and inclusion and how they relate to the fields of ecology and evolutionary biology. In addition, the successful candidate will develop courses in zoology, organismal biology, data science, natural history collections, and/or quantitative methods.
QUALIFICATIONS
Basic qualifications (required at time of application)
Necessary qualification include: a) a PhD degree in a relevant discipline; b) experience with the curation and collection specimens and museum data management; c) strong quantitative background in the curation and analysis of complex, large, and multidimensional dataset; and d) evidence of sustained research productivity through journal publications.
Additional qualifications (required at time of start)
We welcome candidates who demonstrate a commitment to equity and inclusion through research, teaching, mentoring, community engagement and/or service and who apply inclusive mentoring practices.
Preferred qualifications
We welcome candidates working in any group of vertebrates, but would prefer candidates whose research focuses on mammals and/or birds since this is the strength of the Dickey R. Collection.
