Employment Opportunities

The Department seeks well-qualified applicants who are committed to excellence in teaching, research and patient care.  It offers a collaborative environment, with many opportunities for personal development and training.  The University of Rochester is an equal opportunity/affirmative action employer, and welcomes diversity in its faculty and staff.

Candidates for faculty and staff positions should apply online through the University of Rochester Human Resources Management System (HRMS):  http://www.rochester.edu/urhr/applyonlin

Faculty Positions

The Department is currently recruiting an academically-oriented hematopathologist at the Assistant Professor rank.  The job ID is 171422.

Staff Positions

Openings for clinical technologists can be found under the advanced search job category "Healthcare Support/Technician."  Openings for research laboratory technologists can be found under the job categories "Research Tech/Professional" and "Research/Tech Support."

Most clinical laboratory technologists need New York State licenses, or need to be eligible for licensing, in order to be hired for lab positions.  This is noted in the job description.  For more information on eligibility and obtaining a license, see the New York State Education Department http://www.op.nysed.gov/prof/clt/clp-cltlic.htm

The implementation of State licensing requirements means that, after a short grace period, the Department will no longer be able to hire individuals with related B.A. or B.S. degrees unless they have specific laboratory training.  The good news is that more colleges are offering or are planning to offer this additional training, many of them online.  For the latest information on these developments, you can contact Vicki Roberts, the URMC Labs Educational Coordinator, Vicki_Roberts@urmc.rochester.edu

Postdoctoral Positions

Inquiries should be sent directly to the listed faculty.

Research: Bone Pathology

Applications are invited from suitably qualified individuals to study the role of NF-kappaB and src signaling in osteoclasts, osteoblasts and chondrocytes. Applicants should have experience in bone cell biology and in signal transduction by factors such as NF-kappaB and AP-1. The fellow will further explore the role of these in bone cell function in normal and disease states. Please submit a current CV and names of referees by e-mail to Brendan Boyce (brendan_boyce@urmc.rochester.edu).

Research: Cardiology

Postdoctoral fellow position is immediately available in the study of voltage-gated cardiac K+channel modulation by kinases. Candidates should have a strong background in cellular electrophysiology. Although previous experience in cell biology, biochemistry and molecular biology is not required, preference will be given to individuals with training and/or expertise in one or more of these areas. Please send a curriculum vitae and a statement of research interest to Dr. Haodong Xu, Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, University of Rochester Medical Center, 601 Elmwood Ave, Rochester, NY 14642. E-mail: Haodong_Xu@URMC.Rochester.edu

Research: Leukemias

Postdoctoral positions are available immediately at the University of Rochester to investigate molecular mechanisms in acute myeloid leukemia and myelodysplastic syndrome using the mouse as a model system. Our lab focuses on the zinc finger oncoprotein EVI1, and has developed a number of genetic models to investigate its function. Please send CV and names of three references to Archibald S. Perkins (archibald_perkins@URMC.rochester.edu).
