Faculty Positions in Neuroscience

The Department of Neuroscience at Tufts University School of Medicine is adding tenure-track faculty positions. Positions are available at Assistant, Associate and Full Professor levels. The department will build on its core strengths and focus on the study of synapses, disorders of the nervous system and neuron-glial interactions. We are seeking candidates who use innovative approaches to investigate problems that cross levels of investigation from molecular and cellular to systems and/or behavioral neuroscience. Candidates using molecular, genetic, electrophysiological and/or imaging methodologies to study neurons, synapses and networks are particularly encouraged to apply. We offer generous start-up packages, newly renovated laboratory space and a highly collaborative environment offering opportunities for both basic and translational research.

Applicants should hold a Ph.D. and/or M.D. degree and have several years of productive postdoctoral experience. Successful candidates will be expected to develop thriving, well-funded research programs and to contribute to graduate and medical education. Please submit electronic applications including a CV, a statement of research interests and the names and email addresses of at least three references to: neurosci-facultyrecruitment@tufts.edu.

Please note that applications received in the summer months will be considered when the Search Committee reconvenes in the fall.
