A complete application will consist of a curriculum vita, including a complete list of publications, a short statement of research interests and scientific goals from the applicant, and three letters of recommendation (sent directly by the referees) to: Development & Cell Biology Search Committee Ecology The EBE section and the Division of Biological Sciences are committed to building a strong program in environmental biology to meet the key challenges of the 21st century. We seek applications from scientists working to understand and solve ecological problems both locally and globally that are caused by human impacts. Applications from junior candidates are strongly encouraged although tenured scientists will be considered. Area of scholarship is open, but we are particularly interested in candidates working in the areas of global change biology and human impacts on community structure and dynamics. Applicants should demonstrate outstanding records of research achievement, and be able to attract significant extramural research support. The appointee is expected to participate fully in departmental affairs and teaching. Level of appointment will be commensurate with qualifications and experience. Salary will be based on published UC pay scales. Review of applications will begin November 1, 2007 and continue until the position is filled. Applications should comprise a single .pdf file containing a CV, copies of recent publications, and statements of research and teaching interests. The application and three letters of reference (sent directly by the referees) should be sent to ebe-ecol-e@ucsd.edu with EBE Ecology as the subject line. Molecular Biology The Section of Molecular Biology at UCSD announces searches for faculty members in Molecular Biology and Microbiology. We seek applicants using molecular, biochemical, or genomic approaches to address fundamental problems in eukaryotic and prokaryotic biology. Candidates must have a Ph.D. or M.D. degree or equivalent, postdoctoral experience, and a record of research accomplishment. In addition to performing outstanding research, the successful candidate will be expected to participate in undergraduate and graduate education. Assistant Professor level candidates should show evidence of potential through letters of recommendation and a publication record appropriate for experience. The level of appointment will be commensurate with qualifications and experience with salary based on the University of California pay scale. Each applicant should submit a detailed resume, copies of selected publications, a summary of current and proposed research, and arrange for three letters of recommendation to be directly sent to one of the search committees listed below. Candidates may apply to multiple searches. Complete applications received by October 24, 2007 will be assured of full consideration.
