Isenberg Professorship in Integrated Life Sciences
University of Massachusetts Amherst
The College of Natural Sciences and Mathematics (NSM) at UMass Amherst seeks
candidates at the Associate or Full Professor level for the NSM Isenberg
Endowed Professorship. We seek a prominent individual who does integrative
work in any area of the life sciences using interdisciplinary approaches that
complement existing strengths in Systems Biology, Biomedicine, Biomaterials,
Nanomedicine, Bioinformatics, and Mathematical or Computational Biology. The
Isenberg Professorship was established with the support of Ronnie and Eugene M.
Isenberg to catalyze interdisciplinary work in management, engineering and
science by promoting integrative approaches using technology, innovation and
entrepreneurship. The successful candidate will participate in campus
initiatives by working collaboratively across NSM disciplinary boundaries and
interacting closely with existing Isenberg Professors in the College of
Engineering and the Isenberg School of Management.
The Isenberg Professor will benefit from an environment at the UMass Amherst
campus that promotes life sciences research and innovation through
interdisciplinary collaboration. These efforts are bolstered by the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts $1 billion Life Sciences Initiative that includes
increased faculty recruitment and capital expansion on the Amherst campus.
The NSM Isenberg Professor will hold an academic appointment in the appropriate
participating department of NSM. These include Biochemistry and Molecular
Biology, Biology, Computer Science, Polymer Science and Engineering, Chemistry,
Mathematics and Statistics, and Physics. Rank and salary will be commensurate
with qualifications and experience.
Evaluation of applications will begin on December 15, 2008 and continue until
the position is filled.
Applications should include a curriculum vitae, a summary of research interests
and accomplishments (5 pages), and copies of 1-3 key publications. Candidates
will be contacted by the search committee to arrange for at least three letters
of recommendation after the initial evaluation of applications is completed.
Applications should be sent by email to Ms. Cheryl Daggett [email:
daggett@nsm.umass.edu], Personnel Manager, Dean of the College of Natural
Sciences and Mathematics, Lederle Graduate Research Tower- Room 716, University
of Massachusetts, Amherst, MA 01003. Please include Isenberg Professorship
Search in the subject line.
