The University of Toronto Mississauga (UTM), Department of Biology, invites applications for a tenure track faculty position at the level of Assistant Professor effective July 1, 2010.
We are searching for a Theoretical Biologist who is asking cutting edge questions in evolutionary biology. The successful candidate may pursue purely theoretical paths of inquiry, or employ laboratory or field-based experiments in their research.
Of great interest is the scope and novelty of the proposed research. We are particularly interested in cross-disciplinary approaches designed to produce a more broadly integrated conceptual framework. Excellent opportunities exist for collaboration within the Department of Biology, other departments at UTM with strong research ties to biology, and with biology faculty at other campuses of the University of Toronto. UTM offers a broad spectrum of programs in which theoretical biology is relevant and a valuable addition to our teaching mandate.
The successful applicant will have a Ph.D., an outstanding academic record, and will demonstrate potential for excellence in research and teaching. Salary will be commensurate with qualifications and experience. The appointee will be located in the Department of Biology, University of Toronto Mississauga, and will also be a member of the graduate Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology or Cell and Systems Biology. The graduate departments are University-wide, including UTM, the downtown (St. George) and Scarborough campuses.
