Dear all, if you know of any candidates that may be suitable for the position below could you please advise them of this opportunity. All inquiries or nominations should go directly to Bruce Holm, Chair Structural and Computational Biology Search Committee, bah...@buffalo.edu.
Thanks, Eddie Snell ---------------------------------------------------------- Chair Department of Structural and Computational Biology The University at Buffalo (UB), The State University of New York, School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences, and the Hauptman-Woodward Medical Research Institute (HWI) invite applications from candidates for the position of Department Chair to lead expansion of the current Department of Structural Biology into a Department of Structural and Computational Biology. The successful candidate will be an established investigator with a strong record of competitive research funding and significant research accomplishments. He or she will possess personal qualities of leadership and vision equal to the task of building a program of research in computational structural biology that will complement and enhance the Department's ongoing programs of research based on experimental studies of the three-dimensional atomic architecture of biological macromolecules and multi-molecular complexes and assemblies. The Department is housed in the Hauptman-Woodward Medical Research Institute (HWI; www.hwi.buffalo.edu), which is recognized internationally as a leading center for crystallography-based research on biomolecular structure and function, and whose principal scientists constitute the faculty of the Department. HWI is located on the Buffalo-Niagara Medical Campus immediately adjacent to UB's New York State Center of Excellence in Bioinformatics and Life Sciences (CoE; www.bioinformatics.buffalo.edu) and the Roswell Park Cancer Institute's Center for Genetics and Pharmacology (www.roswellpark.org/Research). The CoE houses UB's Center for Computational Research (www.ccr.buffalo.edu), a supercomputing facility capable of 14 teraflop peak performance that will be a collaborating resource for the new Structural and Computational Biology Department. The Department has a key role in fulfilling the aims of UB's 2020 strategic plan as well as integrating basic science with the School's expanding clinical and translational research programs. Interested persons should supply a copy of their curriculum vitae and a description of their research plans, and arrange for three letters of recommendation to be submitted confidentially to www.ubjobs.buffalo.edu for posting number 0900066. Nominations or inquiries may be sent electronically to Dr. Bruce Holm, Chair Structural and Computational Biology Search Committee, bah...@buffalo.edu.
