The Department of Physiology in the School of Medicine at LSU Health

Sciences Center in New Orleans, LA seeks outstanding candidates for

tenure track faculty positions at the associate professor and professor

levels.

Candidates should have a strong record of research accomplishments; lead

an active, nationally funded research program; and have a vision, as

well as a commitment, to developing a collaborative research program

involving multiple investigators. Expertise in all areas of physiology

will be considered, but preference will be given to those that

complement the existing collaborative research strengths of the

department which include alcohol and drug abuse interaction with host

defense response to inflammation, trauma and infection; and renal and

cardiovascular physiology.

Candidates with international distinction in cardiovascular research

will be considered for the Pfizer-Ardoin Superchair in Cardiovascular

Research. The Department of Physiology at the LSUHSC-NO School of

Medicine has a strong history of collaborative research programs, with a

state-of-the-art infrastructure including access to core laboratories in

genomics, proteomics, imaging, and flow cytometry to support

investigation, and an NIH-sponsored training grant to recruit

outstanding graduate students and postdoctoral fellows. Opportunities

are available for interaction with the Alcohol Research Center, the

Centers of Excellence in Alcohol and Drug Abuse, Cancer, Cardiovascular

Biology, and Neuroscience. Anticipated duties and responsibilities

include sustaining an exceptional research program, mentoring graduate

students/postdoctoral fellows, and participating in departmental and

school graduate and undergraduate teaching programs. The institution

offers generous laboratory space with competitive start-up packages and

salaries. Additional information about the department and faculty is
