Research Faculty Recruitment – Department of Orthopaedics, Rhode Island Hospital and
The Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University
he Brown Department of Orthopaedics is soliciting applications to fill a faculty position in musculoskeletal research, with appointment at the level of Assistant or Associate Professor. The successful candidate will join an established, productive, and well-funded research group located on the campus of Rhode Island Hospital, which is the primary teaching affiliate of the Alpert Medical School of Brown University. This is a non-targeted recruitment. We are interested in outstanding candidates who can enhance or expand the scope of our current research program, which includes laboratories specializing in bioengineering, molecular biology, nanomedicine, skeletal stem cell biology and cell signaling, cancer biology, cartilage, osteoarthritis, spine, and implant infection and diagnostics.
Successful candidates will have a PhD in cell and/or molecular biology, bioengineering, or similarly applicable discipline and, ideally, will have completed a post-doctoral fellowship in musculoskeletal research. Preference will be given to applicants who have established an NIH or similarly-funded research program, though applicants who can demonstrate the likelihood of funding will also be considered. Successful candidates will receive a primary appointment in the Department of Orthopaedics, a competitive start-up package, and space in the Orthopaedic Research Laboratories. Secondary appointments are available in related basic science departments at Brown University.
Research faculty in the Department are expected to establish and maintain nationally recognized independent research programs, as evidenced by consistent NIH or similar funding, and publication in high-impact journals. They are also expected to contribute to the educational mission of the department by mentoring residents, graduate students, medical students, and undergraduate students. Faculty are encouraged to collaborate with clinicians and scientists in the department, as well as with investigators in allied departments at Brown University and the Alpert Medical School of Brown University.
Rhode Island Hospital and Brown University are both located in Providence, Rhode Island, a diverse capital city with an exceptional culinary scene, numerous arts venues, and easy access to myriad cultural and recreational opportunities, including 400 miles of scenic Atlantic coastline and some of the best sailing in the world.
Inquiries can be addressed to Joseph J. (Trey) Crisco, Ph.D., Henry Frederick Lippitt Professor of Orthopaedic Research and Executive Director for Research (joseph_crisco@brown.edu)
To apply: Submit a curriculum vitae with a complete bibliography, a 3-5 page description of your research plan, and a list of three (3) references to Mr. Stephen Ardente (steven_ardente@brown.edu). Review of applications will begin on January 1, 2018 and will continue until the position is filled.
