Tenure-Track
Faculty Position in Cellular/Developmental Biology
(Posted to DP
Web Site November 26, 2007)
The Department of
Biological Sciences at North Dakota State University has a 9-month,
tenure-track faculty position in cellular and developmental biology at the
rank of Assistant/Associate Professor, available fall 2008 (16 August
2008). The position is 45% teaching, 45% research, and 10% service. The
successful candidate is expected to develop an externally-funded dynamic
research program related to regulatory aspects of cellular and developmental
biology. Teaching duties include cellular and developmental biology at the
undergraduate and graduate levels, and advisement of undergraduate students
interested in the pre-health sciences. A highly competitive start-up package
will be provided. Appointment at the associate professor level is possible
for candidates who have an externally-supported research program, a
substantial publication record, and significant teaching experience.

NSF-Funded Post-Doctoral
Position in Digestive Physiology
(Posted
to DP Web Site August 09, 2006)
Two-year NSF-funded
POSTDOCTORAL POSITION to study ontogeny of digestive physiology in
altricial passerine birds. Besides whole-animal measures of
digestive function, research will include optimizing measures of
activity and expression (e.g., Western blots) of enzymes and
transporters of the intestinal brush border membrane, and characterizing
changes during postnatal development. PhD in biological sciences
required and relevant experience in biochemical and molecular methods
and animal handling highly desirable. Position available October
2006, and applications will be accepted until the position is filled.

Post-Doctoral Positions in Cellular/Developmental/Evolutionary Biology
(Posted
to DP Web Site June 21, 2006) The
Department of Biological Sciences at North Dakota State University is
sponsoring 2 postdoctoral positions to develop excellent teacher-scholars.
Applications from highly qualified candidates for 2 two-year appointments
in cellular/developmental/evolutionary biology are invited for positions
beginning fall, 2006. The positions are 50% research and 50%
teaching. Candidates will conduct original research in collaboration
with a sponsoring faculty mentor within the department (see <http://biology.ndsu.nodak.edu/>
for information on possible mentors.). Positions include
research and travel allowances. Under the mentorship of a faculty
sponsor, postdoctoral fellows will teach two courses per year in the
following areas: cell biology, developmental biology, and evolution.
These positions have some potential for conversion to a tenure-track
appointment.
Candidates must have 1) a Ph.D.
degree from an accredited institution in an appropriate discipline; 2)
demonstrated research experience in cell/developmental/evolutionary
biology; 3) evidence of peer-reviewed publication; 4) evidence of interest
and ability in teaching at the undergraduate and graduate levels; 5)
strong oral, written, and interpersonal communication skills, including
demonstrated ability to work/collaborate with others. Preference
will be given to candidates with teaching experience at the university
level.
Applicants should
submit 1) a letter of application detailing their suitability for a
position and how it will advance their career; 2) a curriculum vitae; 3) a
one-page research prospectus; 4) a sample course syllabus; 5) contact
information (including telephone numbers and e-mail addresses) for three
professional references to: Dr. Will Bleier, Chair Postdoctoral Search
Committee, Department of Biological Sciences, North Dakota State
University, P.O. Box 5517, Fargo, ND 58105-5517.
Review
of applications will begin June 30 and continue until the positions are
filled.

Post-Doctoral
Position in Growth Factor Regulation of Coronary Angiogenesis
(Posted
to DP Web Site June 5, 2006) A
postdoctoral fellowship in growth factor regulation of coronary
angiogenesis in 1) development, and 2) angiogenic therapy for the ischemic
and postinfarcted heart is available immediately. Studies aimed at
elucidating mechanisms that regulate embryonic/fetal and postnatal
formation of the coronary vasculature focus on growth factor interactions
and the contribution of stem cells. Both in vitro and in vivo
approaches are utilized. The studies regarding angiogenic therapy
for the ischemic and postinfarcted heart focuses on non-invasive
models. The applicant should have a background in cell/tissue
culture, immunohistochemistry and physiology.
Qualified
candidates should submit their
CV, along with a letter, to:
Dr. Robert J. Tomanek
Department of Anatomy & Cell Biology
The University of Iowa
1-402 Bowen Science Building
Iowa City, IA 52240-1109
