University of Kentucky College of Medicine Tenure-Track Positions in Spinal Cord and Brain Injury Research

The Spinal Cord & Brain Injury Research Center (SCoBIRC) in the University of Kentucky College of Medicine invites applications for two tenure-track positions at the ASSISTANT or ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR levels. Competitive start up funding, salaries and state of the art facilities are available. Applicants should have a Ph.D. and/or M.D. and multiple years of postdoctoral research experience in neuroscience or a related discipline. They will be expected to develop and maintain innovative, extramurally-funded neurotrauma-focused research programs. Successful applicants will join a growing interdisciplinary spinal cord and brain injury research team and will have an appointment in a basic science or clinical department in the College of Medicine. Areas of particular interest for these positions include CNS neural plasticity and regeneration, neural and glial precursor cell transplantation, neuroimmunology and in vitro injury models. However, neurotrauma investigators working in other research areas will also be considered. Interested individuals should submit a curriculum vitae, statement of research interests and future directions and the names and addresses of at least three references.
