Cell/Molecular Biology Faculty positions

[David R. Hyde]

CELL / MOLECULAR BIOLOGY

The Department of Biological Sciences at the University of Notre 
Dame invites applications for two TENURE TRACK FACULTY 
POSITIONS in Cell Molecular Biology beginning fall semester 
2001. Post-doctoral experience as well as a strong interest in 
undergraduate and graduate teaching is required.  Teaching 
responsibilities will be one course per semester consisting of an 
undergraduate course in Cell, Molecular or Developmental Biology 
and graduate teaching in an area of expertise.  

Any research area of cell or molecular biology is appropriate.  
However, we are particularly interested in seeking research 
expertise to complement our current research emphases in cell 
and molecular biology which includes:  molecular motors, 
membrane trafficking, invasion and metastasis, apoptosis, nuclear 
receptors, signal transduction, molecular genetics of visual 
processes, molecular and cellular nutrition, and tumor biology. 
Additional information is available at 
http://www.science.nd.edu/biology.  The candidate's specific area 
of research is less important than a demonstrated record of 
excellence, originality and productivity in research.  The 
department provides an excellent research environment including 
state of the art optical imaging, flow cytometry and cell sorting, 
automated histology and laser capture micro-dissection core 
facilities.  The University also maintains excellent animal care, 
zebrafish and transgenic facilities. We are particularly interested in 
individuals who can complement our current research in zebrafish 
and can take advantage of our anticipated 500 square foot 
expansion of our current zebrafish facility.   

The University of Notre Dame offers competitive salaries and 
generous start up packages.  Review of applications will begin 
December 15, 2000 and will continue until the positions are filled. 
Applicants should submit a curriculum vitae, a brief description of 
research accomplishments, a two page statement of research 
objectives and teaching interests and have three letters of 
recommendation sent to:
