Job Description:
The Brown Center for Biomedical Informatics (BCBI) is seeking a tenure-track faculty member with primary research emphasis in Translational Bioinformatics. BCBI was established in 2015 as a transdisciplinary center with partnerships across the entire biomedical and health community of Brown University. This is a unique opportunity to be part of shaping the vision and long-term impact of a new biomedical informatics program at an institution with academic, hospital, and government partnerships that span basic research, health care, and public health. The successful candidate will be expected to support BCBI’s three-fold mission, to: (1) innovate how electronic biomedical and health data are used, (2) implement solutions for improving biomedical research and healthcare delivery, and (3) inspire the next generation of biomedical researchers and clinicians in partnership with collaborators in existing areas of excellence at Brown, its healthcare affiliates, and statewide healthcare organizations. A competitive startup package will be provided, with the expectation that a majority of the faculty’s research program will be supported through extramural funds within three years. Competitive applicants will have a PhD, DPhil, or DSc in biomedical informatics or related discipline (e.g., computer science, applied mathematics, or biostatistics) with appropriate experience in applications in biomedical or health contexts. Candidates with a doctoral-level health degree (e.g., MD, DO, DDS, DVM, DNSc, DrPH, or PharmD) and post-doctoral experience in biomedical informatics (including clinical informatics fellowships) or related discipline will also be considered favorably. Research experience in translational bioinformatics evidenced by peer-reviewed publications related to the following areas is of particular interest: EHR-linked biobanking, clinical phenotyping, large-scale genome-phenome analysis, disease nosology incorporating genomic information, evolutionary history of disease genes, genomic data driven clinical decision support, and drug discovery or repositioning. Other areas of translational bioinformatics may also be considered. Teaching experience at all collegiate and medical school levels (undergraduate, graduate, and medical students) is highly desirable. Interested candidates should submit: (1) Cover Letter that includes a précis of research and teaching interests; (2) Curriculum Vitae; (3) Research Statement; (4) Teaching Statement; (5) up to three peer-reviewed publications; and (6) up to three presentations given at national or international meetings. Candidates should also arrange for the submission of at least four letters of reference. Initial review of applications will begin on April 15, 2016, and continue until the position is filled. Brown University is an equal opportunity (EEO/AA) employer and is committed to increasing the diversity of its faculty. It welcomes nominations and applications from minorities, women, and individuals with varied experiences, perspectives and backgrounds, which would enrich the university's research, teaching, and service missions.
