The Department of Environmental Health Sciences at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, invites applications for several faculty positions at the level of assistant professor, tenure-track. Successful applicants will be expected to develop and sustain a vigorous, extramurally funded research program in the field of environmental health sciences. The specific areas of research interest are expected to complement and enhance the wide range of expertise currently possessed by faculty in the department. In particular, candidates are encouraged to apply who have a research focus pertaining to: 1) the effects of exposure to environmental toxicants on development of neural, reproductive, or other organ systems; 2) specific environmental mediators of cardiopulmonary or metabolic disorders; 3) use of alternative models to study environmental diseases such as C.elegans or Zebrafish; 4) environmental epigenetics and genomics; 5) mechanisms of environmental based carcinogenesis or 6) molecular mechanisms of the effects of environmental exposures on signal transduction, immune system or other cellular processes. The Department offers excellent opportunities for cross cutting interdisciplinary research in areas including gene-environment interaction, environmental epidemiology, environmental and occupational health, toxicology, physiology and risk assessment for susceptibility to environmental diseases. Successful applicants should have academic and research experience commensurate with the level of the appointment at the assistant professor level. In particular, they should have demonstrated a record of peer-reviewed publication and the potential to successfully obtain funding. Successful applicants will also be expected to contribute to the masters and doctoral education programs of the department.
We actively encourage applications from women and minority candidates. The Johns Hopkins University is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action employer.
