University Hospitals Cleveland Medical Center (UHCMC) and Case Western Reserve University (CWRU) is seeking a medical biochemical genetics physician or physician/scientist (full or part-time applicants will both be considered). This position will support growth in medical biochemical genetics and translational genetics and genomics in clinical practice at the major teaching affiliate of the CWRU School of Medicine (SOM). Clinical and metabolic genetic services are provided by the Center for Human Genetics (CHG) throughout the University Hospitals system, across the full spectrum of age and conditions. Clinical activities can be adapted to meet the clinical and/or research interests of the successful applicant and will include outpatient metabolism clinics as well as inpatient/ emergency on-call coverage for pediatric and adult patients with general genetic disorders as well as inborn errors of metabolism.

We have 11 genetic counselors, 1 metabolic dietician s and a full time metabolic nurse among additional support from medical assistants, genetic counseling assistants, etc.

The CHG is part of the Department of Genetics and Genome Sciences at the SOM that includes PhD researchers, so there are ample opportunities for research collaborations.

UHCMC and CWRU are research sites for the North American Mitochondrial Disease Consortium and the Urea Cycle Disorders Consortium as well as sites for several other industry-sponsored clinical trials and registries in a broad range of metabolic disorders (including OTC gene therapy and upcoming PKU gene therapy trials among other intervention focused trials). Support for the clinical research studies i s provided by two full time research assistants (with plans to add a third) and a full time regulatory specialist. Other o pportunities for clinical, translational and basic science research abound.

The successful candidate will find options available to create the ideal mix in this position. Primary appointment (assistant, associate or full professor) will be in the Department of Genetics and Genome Sciences (Zhenghe Wang, PhD), with hospital appointment in CHG through UHCMC.

Qualifications:
Candidates are expected to be excellent collaborators, creative in providing clinical care, willing teachers and advisors at the graduate and post-graduate level, willing to provide service at local, regional and national levels depending on academic rank, and to show consistent scholarly productivity. Applicants must have a MD, MD/PhD, or DO degree, board certification in clinical genetics and clinical or medical biochemical genetics (or active candidate status) by the American Board of Medical Genetics and Genomics, and must be able to obtain an active medical license in the state of Ohio. UHCMC and CWRU are committed to the ideals and goals of affirmative action and equal opportunity employment.
