Faculty Positions
Neurobiology of Hearing - University of Rochester
Applications are invited for tenure-track positions (assist.-full Professor) in the Departments of Otolaryngology and Neurobiology & Anatomy. As part of an institutional initiative in Neuromedicine, candidates will join a strong interdepartmental group of systems and cellular neuroscientists under the umbrella of the Center for Navigation and Communication Sciences (NIDCD-funded P30 core-center) with strengths in sensory, motor, and integrative neurobiology, emphasizing the auditory and vestibular systems and neuroengineering. This recruitment is targeted toward basic and translational aspects of regenerative and restorative sensory neurobiology of the ear, including progenitor/stem cell approaches (e.g. hair cell regeneration), gene therapy, and prosthetic applications. Candidates should have a PhD and/or MD (physician-scientist), and an established independent research laboratory following training in neuroscience and/or engineering. Successful candidates will maintain a productive, independent, and externally supported research program and participate in teaching activities. Competitive start-up packages are included. Salary is commensurate with rank and experience.
To apply, send CV, statement of career goals, at least 3 letters of recommendation, and key publications (all in PDF form) to: Gary D. Paige, MD, PhD, Chair, Department of Neurobiology and Anatomy, University of Rochester, at NBA_ENT_recruitment@urmc.rochester.edu.
Post-Doctoral Fellowship Positions
Post-Doctoral Position Available Immediately in the Auditory Processing Laboratory
Applications are invited for a postdoctoral research scientist to join an active NIH-funded auditory neurophysiology laboratory at the University of Rochester. The successful candidate will use a multidisciplinary approach to study the organization and function of the anatomical pathways in the brain that are responsible for spatial hearing. Research expertise in electrophysiological, neuropharmacological, or computational approaches to brain function is desireable.
Interested candidates should send cover letter, curriculum vitae, and contact information for three references to:
