Summary:

The Department of Pediatrics at Rush University Medical Center is recruiting two candidates for a F.A.S.T faculty position in Clinical Trials for Innovative Therapeutics in Angelman syndrome and other Neurogenetic Disorders to join the Department of Pediatrics, Division of Pediatric Neurology as an Assistant Professor with two-years of 80% protected time to learn translational neuroscience. We welcome both domestic and international candidates to apply if licensed in the USA. This is a unique opportunity for qualified individuals to further develop their translational and clinical research training at a leading academic medical center, conducting this work with mentorship in cutting-edge research using mechanism-targeted treatment for Angelman syndrome and other rare monogenic NDDs.

This two-year opportunity is for physicians to be mentored in the translational neuroscience program headed by Elizabeth Berry-Kravis, MD, PhD. As the leading investigator in multiple NIH-funded research programs and industry-and foundation-sponsored clinical trials, Dr. Berry-Kravis has established Rush University Medical Center as an international destination for rare disease treatment and research in the area of pediatric neurodevelopmental and neurogenetic conditions. During the two-years of protected time, the faculty member will learn about clinical trial design, including novel clinical trials for rare genetic pediatric NDDs including N-of-1 trials, development of specialized programs for clinical management of these conditions with accommodation of experimental treatments, and new outcome measure and biomarker development for these populations. The professorship will include time in clinics for neurogenetic diseases; however the majority of time will be spent working and training on translational and clinical research. After the two year position is complete there will be an option to stay on the faculty at Rush as a part of the Pediatric Neurology team doing clinical work and clinical research.

The successful candidate will have recently completed fellowship in Child Neurology (preferred), Child Psychiatry or Developmental Behavioral Pediatrics, and will have an interest in starting a career in translational neuroscience for neurodevelopmental and neurogenetic disorders.
