Position Information
Position/Rank:
Nephrology Investigator Department:
00237 - Nephrology City:
Salt Lake City, UT New Position to Begin:
When filled Details: The Division of Nephrology and Hypertension in the Department of Internal Medicine at the Spencer Fox Eccles School of Medicine at the University of Utah in Salt Lake City, Utah is seeking applications for tenure-line faculty at all levels (Assistant, Associate, or full Professor, depending on experience and qualifications). The Division, Department, and University have vibrant, collaborative research communities spanning the translational spectrum. Current areas of research in the division include, but are not limited to, basic, translational, and clinical research in the areas of chronic kidney disease, genetics, dialysis, vascular access, molecular physiology, hypertension, and health equity. A new Cardio-Renal & Metabolism Center, under the direction of Nephrology and Cardiovascular Medicine faculty, was inaugurated in 2024. Nephrology faculty hold adjunct appointments in Nutrition & Integrative Physiology, Population Health Sciences, Human Genetics, Pathology, and Biomedical Engineering. New Division faculty will be supported in seeking appointments in these or other departments based on research area and will also have access to graduate programs through these departments. Institutional initiatives include Diabetes & Metabolism; Immunology, Inflammation & Infectious Disease; Genomic Medicine; Digital Health; and Data Exploration and Learning for Precision Health Intelligence. These initiatives, which many Nephrology faculty participate in, provide intellectual communities, including seminars, workshops, and scientific retreats; opportunities for collaboration; and seed grants and other research funding. Seed grants are also offered by the Department of Internal Medicine, the School of Medicine, and the Senior Vice President for Health Sciences. Nephrology faculty are also investigators in the Nora Eccles Harrison Cardiovascular Research & Training Institute and the University of Utah Molecular Medicine Program (U2M2). U2M2 provides an interdisciplinary home for wet bench/early translational researchers from across clinical departments, and newly recruited faculty may be eligible for joint recruitment into U2M2. Many of the MD and PhD faculty in Nephrology hold joint appointments at the Salt Lake City Veterans Affairs (VA) Medical Center, offering opportunities for VA funding. New faculty may be eligible for VA joint appointments. Core facilities provide access to state-of-the-art instrumentation and expert consultation, across a broad range of scientific techniques, including microscopy, flow cytometry, genomics, metabolomics, proteomics, genetic engineering, drug discovery, and others. Consultative services and support are also available in the areas of biostatistics, study design, grant development, and technology licensing and commercialization. The Utah Population Database facilitates family-based genetic studies. Career development support across career stages is available through multiple departmental and institutional resources. Minimum Qualifications: MD and/or PhD, or equivalent degree, with postdoctoral research training, with strong potential for high-impact, federally funded research. Preferred Qualifications: Applicants with federally funded research programs, and, at senior levels, with national and/or international recognition, as well as applicants with high potential for collaboration within the Division, Department, or University will be prioritized, particularly those whose research synergizes with institutional priorities. We strongly encourage applications from physician-scientists and candidates from all populations, including those who have been underrepresented in academic medicine and science and candidates with non-traditional backgrounds.
