The Department of Cell and Molecular Physiology at Loyola University Chicago
Stritch School of Medicine (SSOM) seeks applicants for a tenure-track position at the
ASSISTANT PROFESSOR level.
We seek a collaborative colleague whose research program is focused on
fundamental mechanistic processes related to cardiac physiology, cell physiology/

consideration will be given to applicants who use non-traditional models alongside
innovative biophysical, 'omics, and live imaging approaches to address fundamental
knowledge gaps. Departmental strengths include faculty engaged in cardiovascular
science, ion channel physiology, molecular motors, cellular biophysics, calcium
signaling, nuclear steroid receptors, RNA biology, and aging research. The successful
candidate will have the opportunity to engage with collaborative translational research
groups within Loyola's Cardiovascular Research Institute (CVRI). Additional
information on the department and cross-departmental research areas, resources,
and facilities are described here:

publication records. The faculty applicant will be expected to sustain an independent,
externally-funded research program and contribute to graduate and medical
education.

references will not be contacted without applicant's approval. Applications will be
accepted until the position is filled, but we encourage early submissions as reviews
