USC Faculty Positions in Biology (Aging)
UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA
Davis School of Gerontology - Ethel Percy Andrus Gerontology Center
The USC Davis School of Gerontology and its Ethel Percy Andrus Gerontology Center are pleased to announce the next round in our continued expansion of tenure-track faculty positions. Our highly interdisciplinary faculty come from backgrounds in biochemistry, physiology, molecular biology, neuroscience, demography, psychology, sociology, urban planning, and public policy. In the current round, we seek to hire two tenure-track individuals at the Assistant Professor level, one of which will be in the biology of aging. Biologists with expertise in molecular/genetic approaches and/or translational research are particularly encouraged to apply.
The successful candidates must have the capacity to thrive in our multidisciplinary research and teaching environment; they will be expected to develop a strong, independent research program supported by significant federal funding. We offer gerontology degrees at the bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral level. Additionally, our diverse faculty members all have joint appointments in other schools and departments (e.g. molecular biology, neurobiology, sociology, psychology, etc.) where they also supervise Ph.D. students.
We actively encourage people of all backgrounds, ethnicity, and culture to apply. Candidates should send a C.V., along with a letter indicating research experience and plans for the future. They should also arrange for three letters of support to be sent to, Gerontology Search Committee, Davis School of Gerontology, 3715 McClintock Avenue, Los Angeles, CA 90089-0191, USA. Email inquiries and applications can be submitted to Ms. Marie Bergara (bergara@usc.edu). Review of candidates will begin immediately and continue until a suitably qualified candidate is identified.
The University of Southern California is an Equal Opportunity Employer that Values Diversity.
