FACULTY POSITION IN NEUROSCIENCES
The University of New Mexico School of Medicine
The Department of Neurosciences invites applications for a tenure-track faculty position at the Assistant or Associate Professor level.
Minimum Requirements: Applicants must have a Ph.D. or M.D. degree, or the equivalent, and postdoctoral experience in state-of-the-art neuroscience research. The research plan must involve rodent models and the science of addiction.
The Neurosciences Dept. at the University of New Mexico recognizes that substance use disorders (SUDs) emerge from the complex interplay of biological, genetic, environmental, social, and developmental factors, with drugs of abuse interacting with multiple brain regions. Research is needed to provide a deeper understanding of the molecular signals and neural circuits that are modified by drug use, identifying gene-environment interactions to guide the development of new treatments and refining or developing models to understand how biological mechanisms drive behavior across the continuum of addiction, from initial drug use to drug craving, dependence, relapse and tolerance.
Preferences:
1) Applicants with an established, or strong potential to establish, an independent research program, as evidenced by funding history and publication record and innovative research plan.
2) Applicants whose research proposal uses preclinical rodent models of addiction disorders, and/or working with relevant human tissues or human cellular models.
3) Experience or interest in participating in graduate and medical school teaching programs.
4) A demonstrated commitment to diversity, equity, inclusion and student success, as well as working with broadly diverse communities.
The position includes a competitive state-funded salary, research start-up funds and state-of-the-art research and shared core facilities. Successful candidates will have the opportunity to collaborate with other UNM departments and centers such as Neurology, Psychology, Psychiatry, the MIND Research Network, the Center for Brain Recovery and Repair, the Interdisciplinary Substance Use and Brain Injury Research Facility, and the New Mexico Alcohol Research Center. The Department of Neurosciences aims to foster a diverse body of research to strengthen the neuroscience research community at the University of New Mexico. Women and underrepresented minorities are strongly encouraged to apply.
For best consideration, applications must be received by November 1st, 2024; however, the position will remain open until filled. A complete application must include a letter of interest addressing each minimum and preferred qualification related to the position's responsibilities; research proposal; CV or resume; teaching philosophy; diversity, equity and inclusion statement; and the names, addresses and telephone numbers of three references. This position is subject to criminal records screening in accordance with New Mexico law. If criminal records screening is mandated, clearance by the New Mexico Department of Health is required as a condition of employment.
The University of New Mexico is an Equal Opportunity/ Affirmative Action employer and educator.
