About the Environmental Health and AI Position:
The Dell Medical School at the University of Texas at Austin seeks a faculty candidate at the rank of Associate Professor or Professor to lead academic growth at the intersection of artificial intelligence and environmental health. The position lies within the Applied AI and Data Sciences For Life Sciences cluster hiring initiative as part of the University of Texas at Austin's declaration of 2024 as the Year of AI and commitment to leadership in AI across all fields.

We are committed to strengthening our leadership in research, development, and implementation of environmental health-oriented artificial intelligence (AI) and data science capabilities. Candidates with a track record of leading an independent research program and doctoral training in one or more of the following areas will be preferred: environmental health sciences, statistics or biostatistics, epidemiology, computer science, engineering, and related quantitative fields. Individuals with an MD or DO with appropriate supplementary training will also be considered. This expertise will complement the ongoing and future expansion of Dell Medical School's and the Center for Health and Environment: Education and Research's (CHEER) research and teaching mission. Preferred candidates will have specific interest at the intersection of environmental health and community-engaged research, and the search will be administered through Dell Med's Department of Population Health, the academic home of CHEER.
