Tenure Track Jobs Near Me

The Department of Anesthesiology at Wexner Medical Center/The Ohio State University College of Medicine is initiating a search for one (or more) Tenure Track faculty position in Basic, Translational and/or Clinical Research. To accelerate our research growth, we have recently recruited 2 NIH funded tenure track faculty and we plan to recruit additional faculty in strategic areas of research to complement our existing strengths and grow our capabilities. We encourage applicants to apply for Assistant, Associate or a Full Professor position. Qualified candidates for the Tenure Track will be focused on research relevant to perioperative care and anesthesiology, in subspecialty areas generally focused on Neuroscience, Pain and Addiction. Applications in other research areas may be considered and should complement ongoing research areas outlined below.

Specific target areas of investigation could include, but are not limited to, neuromodulation, neuroimmune regulation, neuroinflammation and reactive glia, in the context of perioperative neural dysfunction, neuroprotection, pain signaling and analgesia, recovery and wound healing, or addiction research. Candidates focused on Women's Health in the specific target areas are encouraged to apply. We are interested in recruiting either PhD or Physician scientists.

Successful applicants will join a growing and dynamic research environment dedicated to translating innovative laboratory discoveries in basic mechanisms to human studies and clinical trials with a long-term goal to improve patients' lives.

Qualifications

• Ph.D. and/or M.D degree, post-doctoral training, a commitment to basic, translational and/or clinical research and a history of strong research productivity in strategic target areas of investigation.
• The position(s) are for NIH (or equivalent) funded investigators, although a significant funding record from other sources will be considered.
• We highly value Team-Science and individuals who seek opportunities to develop strong extramurally funded collaborations and innovative programs with physicians and basic scientists in and outside the department with existing programs and participate in training grants and program project grants in the future.
• Individuals with innovative applications of Artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, bioinformatics and computational models in perioperative medicine in targeted areas with an NIH or equivalent funding record are also encouraged to apply.
• We also encourage highly motivated, ambitious, early-stage investigators to apply with a solid background and track record of productivity, the ability to establish an innovative independent research program, and to secure NIH (or equivalent funding).
• Mindset and track record reflecting adherence to standards of professional ethical conduct
• In aggregate, accomplishments should be sufficiently compelling that the appointee is judged to have significant potential to attain tenure and a distinguished record as a faculty member in the department.
• Salary commensurate with previous training and experience.
• Faculty interested in a tenure track faculty position are encouraged to apply. Preference will be given to qualified individuals pursuing a tenure-track faculty position as Assistant Professors if they are highly productive scientists with notable publications in impact journals, who have demonstrated potential to succeed on the tenure track (i.e. with a K Award, K99/ R00, R03, or other competitive early-career awards in Anesthesiology such as FAER, IARS, ASA, or Foundation grants, etc.) and develop an independent research program or faculty at advanced rank who have demonstrated a record of sustained NIH R01 funding as Principal Investigators (or equivalent competitive funding such as PCORI, DOD, NSF, ACS, FDA, SBIR/R44-Phase studies).
• Opportunities exist for recruitment of qualified investigators in a leadership position (directorship role) in emerging or new areas of investigation with great potential for growth and collaboration.
