Research programs that additionally complement other strengths at the VCU School of Medicine, including cerebrovascular disease, inflammatory processes, and the neuroscience of addiction, are welcomed. Translational impact is expected of all research programs, and interactions with clinical colleagues that foster translational research programs are encouraged. Development of collaborative efforts with investigators in the department and/or in the greater neuroscience community at the School of Medicine and across the University are also encouraged.

Teaching: The successful candidate is also expected to support departmental teaching activities. Principal among these will be the training of MS and PhD students and postdoctoral scholars in research methods and scientific writing. Applicants will also be asked to participate in graduate courses for students in the Neuroscience PhD program and in other MS and PhD programs throughout the SOM. Depending on their expertise, applicants may also participate in lectures and laboratory sessions offered in the department's programs in professional and graduate education.

Service: Service to the department, the school, the university, and the profession is expected of all faculty members and is valued.

Required Qualifications:
