Position Summary
As part of a major multiyear initiative to expand research activities across the Indiana University Bloomington campus the Genome Cell and Developmental Biology program in the Department of Biology invites applications at the Associate or Full Professor level in the area of Metabolism. Established Assistant Professors will also be considered. We are particularly interested in scientists who are using model organisms to study the regulation of metabolism in development and disease. Scientists studying the molecular mechanisms by which the environment influences metabolism and growth are also encouraged to apply. Start dates of Fall 2023 or Fall 2024 are possible. Our vision is to continue building a multiinvestigator group that will define IU as a preeminent center for studies of metabolism and metabolomics in model organisms. This effort is part of a significant expansion in the life sciences at IU Bloomington. The successful applicant will join a vibrant group of investigators with related research programs within the Department of Biology and across campus in the Departments of Chemistry Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry as well as IU School of Medicine and the School of Public Health. The selected candidate will be provided with a competitive startup package and salary and will have access to outstanding research resources including stateoftheart facilities for genomics and bioinformatics light and electron microscopy (including cryoEM) flow cytometry protein analysis mass spectrometry and crystallography. Bloomington is a college town that offers the sophistication of a cultural capital with internationalcaliber performances in opera theater music and dance all in a walkable familyfriendly town. There are also extensive opportunities for local outdoor activities including hiking camping water sports and cycling.
