Indiana University Indianapolis School of Science

The School of Science (SoS) at Indiana University Indianapolis (IU Indianapolis) and newly established IU Convergent Biosciences and Technology Institute (CBATI)invite applications for tenured or tenure-track faculty positions, available at all levels, focused on advancing knowledge and developing innovative solutions in proteomics and allied fields. This interdisciplinary institute fosters collaboration across a wide range of fields to address critical challenges related to regenerative biology, chemistry, medicine, hybrid biomaterials, tissue engineering, stem cell research, aging, and technology development. Candidates should be dynamic researchers with a commitment to interdisciplinary research, teaching, and service that aligns with the missions of SoS and CBATI. The tenure home of the selected candidates will be in one of six departments within the SoS: Biology, Chemistry and Chemical Biology, Earth and Environmental Sciences, Mathematical Sciences, Physics, or Psychology.

Applicants should have demonstrated experience in one or more fields of proteomics or other allied fields, such as structural proteomics/biophysics, quantitative proteomics, discovery/shotgun proteomics, imaging mass spectrometry, native mass spectrometry, metabolomics, lipidomics, glycomics, or next-gen proteomics sequencing and are expected to apply innovative approaches to address fundamental or translational biological questions relevant to the interests and goals of CBATI. A particular emphasis will be placed on research areas related to translational omics, biomarker development, and technology development. Successful candidates will have a laboratory in the state-of-the-art research space at CBATI. They will be expected to develop and maintain a nationally and internationally recognized extramurally funded research program and be committed to the education and outreach missions of CBATI, the recruiting department, SoS, and IU Indianapolis.

The IU Indianapolis School of Science is a hub for scientific research and education, offering a range of undergraduate and graduate (MS and PhD) programs across disciplines, including biology, chemistry, earth and environmental sciences, forensic and investigational sciences, mathematics, neuroscience, physics, and psychology. With state-of-the-art facilities and close ties to Indianapolis' thriving healthcare, biotech, and life sciences sectors, the school fosters interdisciplinary research and innovation, and prepares students for careers in science, medicine, technology, and education through hands-on research and collaboration with leading industry and academic partners.

The IU Indianapolis campus, with over 21,000 students, is located adjacent to downtown Indianapolis. IU Indianapolis is the health and life science campus of Indiana University, the focal point of health profession education in the State of Indiana. IU Indianapolis offers a full range of academic programs and is an academic leader in the life and health sciences. The School of Science and O'Neill School of Public and Environmental Affairs in Indianapolis are on the academic Medical Center Campus, home to the Indiana University School of Medicine, the largest medical school in the U.S.. Both schools have formed key research partnerships with the IU School of Medicine and the Regenstrief Institute, an internationally recognized medical informatics research center. The schools also enjoy collaborations with the Roudebush VA Medical Center, IU Health (one of the largest health care organizations in the Midwest), and the IU Schools of Nursing, Public Health, Public and Environmental Affairs, Informatics, Computing, and Engineering. IU faculty have access to state-of-the art computing resources. IU's Quartz supercomputer, Big Red 200 is among the world's fastest research supercomputers. Owned and operated solely by IU, these high-performance resources are designed to accelerate discovery in a wide variety of fields, including biomedicine, biotechnology, health care, and enable effective analysis of large, complex biomedical data sets (i.e., big data). Overall, IU Indianapolis research contributes significantly to the Indiana State economy, with an estimated $672 million generated in economic activity from NIH-funded projects alone. This growth aligns with the IU 2030 strategic plan, aiming to support Indiana's economic and health needs through expanded research infrastructure and collaboration across IU campuses.

Review of applications will begin on September 30, 2025 , and continue until the position(s) are filled.
