The Department of Pharmacology and Toxicology is expanding its program in
the study of signal transduction. Applicants should apply modern methods of
biochemistry, molecular biology, proteomics, and/or cell biology to the
study of signal transduction pathways. This may include membrane or nuclear
receptors, kinases, phosphatases, lipids, ion channels, G proteins, and
related mediators. Preference will be given to applicants studying vascular
biology, cancer biology, or neurobiology, but outstanding candidates in
other promising/emerging areas of research will also be considered.
Facilities are modern and include core laboratories for peptide/DNA
synthesis and analysis, flow cytometry, electron spin resonance, mass
spectrometry, electron and confocal microscopy, and microarray. Tenure-track
appointments can be made at ASSISTANT or ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR ranks.
Applicants for Assistant Professor position must have a doctoral degree in a
relevant area and a minimum of two years of postdoctoral experience. They
