Position Description The University of California, Irvine (UCI), in partnership with Grant Cooper, announces a national search for the Chief of the Division of Basic and Clinical Immunology. The academic appointment may be at Full Professor Rank in the Health Sciences (HS) Clinical, Clinical X series or In‑Residence Series, depending on experience and extent of research effort.

Oversee the management of the Division with direct oversight of faculty and staff.
The Division of Basic and Clinical Immunology has a long and renowned history of discoveries and seminal contributions to the field of Immunology. The division’s faculty members are nationally and internationally recognized scientists advancing basic, clinical, and translational research in areas such as the effects of environmental toxins on the immune system, developing vaccines to protect against potential terrorist attacks, and investigating rare immunodeficiency diseases.
The ideal candidate will be an extramurally funded clinician‑scientist with a distinguished record of scholarly activity, an involved educator and mentor, and one who can develop robust clinical practices.
Qualifications Basic qualifications (required at time of application):
MD or MD/PhD degree (or equivalent).
Fellowship training in immunology and board certification by the ABAI.
