Associate/ Full Professor of Virology in Molecular Biology & Biochemistry
The Department of Molecular Biology and Biochemistry ( https://mbb.bio.uci.edu/ ) in the Charlie Dunlop School of Biological Sciences at the University of California, Irvine ( https://www.bio.uci.edu/ ) is inviting applications for a tenured Senior Professorship in Virology with a focus on host-virus innate or adaptive immune responses, viral pathogenesis, structural virology, emerging and re-emerging viral pathogens, viral replication mechanisms, or development of anti-viral therapies and vaccines. Applicants should hold a Ph.D., M.D., or equivalent degree. The successful candidate should have an internationally recognized research program with a sustained record of research funding from extramural agencies, experience with teaching at the undergraduate and graduate levels, and a demonstrated commitment to service and leadership. Responsibilities include teaching across all programs (undergraduate, Masters, and doctoral). Opportunities for leadership roles may be available. Applicants will be evaluated based on a curriculum vitae, a 4-page statement of research interests and future research plans, and a 1-page statement of teaching and mentoring experience. Please include contact details for three potential referees; reference letters will only be solicited for candidates under serious consideration. Research plans should identify synergistic connections with existing UCI research programs and demonstrate alignment with the university's strategic goals. The UCI Charlie Dunlop School of Biological Sciences offers a dynamic and collaborative environment, including membership in the Center for Virus Research ( https://www.cvr.bio.uci.edu/ ), which comprises faculty studying diverse areas of virology. The university has two BSL2-plus laboratories and two state-of-the-art BSL3/ABSL3 facilities for research activities. The school is committed to increasing participation of underrepresented groups in biomedical sciences and promotes equity, diversity, and inclusion ( https://inclusion.bio.uci.edu/ ). UCI is a Hispanic-Serving Institution (HSI), an AANAPISI, and a member of the AAAS SEA Change initiative, supporting access and success in STEMM ( https://www.aaas.org/news/four-new-charter-members-join-sea-change ). The university offers programs for dual-career partners, housing support through the Mortgage Origination Program, and is located near the coast in Irvine, a vibrant city known for parks, schools, and diversity. Applicants should prepare a research statement (4 pages) detailing their expertise, contributions, funded research, and future plans, emphasizing how their work will synergize with UCI's research environment. A teaching statement (1 page) should describe teaching interests, experiences, mentoring, teaching philosophies, and evidence of teaching effectiveness. Reflect on personal and professional experiences that align with UCI’s goals of opportunity, inclusion, and community building, integrating these themes into your statements.
