Job description:

The Department of Molecular Genetics and Microbiology at the University of Florida (UF) College of Medicine invites applications for a tenure/tenure-track position at the rank of Assistant Professor of Genetics. The Department has begun a major expansion of the faculty as part of a 5-year strategic plan. We seek outstanding creative investigators in any area of genetics, including but not limited to gene expression and regulation, functional genomics and systems biology, developmental genetics, immunogenetics, molecular mechanisms of disease, evolutionary genetics, and other related fields.

The Department has active research programs in mammalian (human, mouse), Drosophila, viral, bacterial, cancer, and comparative genetics, together with expertise in gene discovery, genome editing, transcriptional and co/post-transcriptional regulation, RNA biochemistry disease mechanisms, structural biology, protein biochemistry, multi-omics, and computational biology. The Department offers a highly collegial and collaborative environment and interactions with numerous Colleges (Agriculture, Engineering, Liberal Arts and Sciences, Medicine, Public Health and Health Professions), Institutes (Emerging Pathogens, Genetics, McKnight Brain) and Centers (Cancer, CDC Southeastern Center of Excellence in Vector Borne Diseases, Inflammation & Mucosal Immunology, NeuroGenetics, NIH Southeast Center for Integrated Metabolomics) that foster interdisciplinary research at UF. Further information about the Department can be found

A pillar of the UF College of Medicine is diversity, inclusion, and equity ). Women and members of underrepresented groups are strongly encouraged to apply. The successful candidate will be expected to promote and contribute to these core values, develop a vibrant, externally funded research program, participate in graduate-level teaching, and recruit and mentor outstanding trainees. Applicants should hold a PhD, MD or MD/PhD in the biomedical sciences or a related field of study. A highly competitive start-up package is available. Applications must be submitted at ) no later than September 30, 2024.

Your assignment may be changed based on the needs of the department and/or college. Your annual faculty teaching, research and service assignments, and your annual evaluation will be prepared by the Chair of the Department of Molecular Genetics and Microbiology. As a member of the University of Florida College of Medicine faculty, your first year assignment will be:

1. TEACHING: It is anticipated that your teaching assignments will involve courses for graduate and professional students. Graduate student teaching will involve courses taught by the department for students enrolled in the Biomedical Sciences Graduate Program (BMS) in the College of Medicine. To facilitate setting up your research program at the University of Florida, you will not be assigned any major teaching or administrative responsibilities during the first year. We recommend, however, that you consider delivering a few lectures in your area of expertise to acquaint yourself with the graduate students whom you may want to recruit to your program. After the first year, it is expected that you participate in the teaching programs within the Department of Molecular Genetics and Microbiology, as well as the normal administrative tasks that accrue to faculty members within academic institutions. Your participation in these areas will be typical of other faculty members with similar research commitments within the department.

2. RESEARCH & SCHOLARSHIP: You will be expected to apply for extramural grant funding to support your research activities. In addition to national grant programs, you also may want to apply to local state agencies that have grant programs. Under current College of Medicine guidelines, you will be expected to secure salary support from extramural grants that is equivalent to the percentage of your total assigned effort for research. You will be expected to accomplish this by the end of your fifth year of employment with the University of Florida. At the end of the first year and each year thereafter, your department chair will decide the percentage of time you will be assigned to research, teaching and administrative duties. This is routinely done with all faculty members at the University of Florida and annual evaluations and promotion decisions will be based, in part, on these assignments. It is anticipated that your research assignment will stabilize at 70% or more with the remainder of your assignment 30% apportioned to teaching after your start-up period. The exact splits will depend on grant support for salary and on teaching and administrative needs of the department
