The Department of Biostatistics at The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill is seeking applications for two non-tenured positions in the Collaborative Studies Coordinating Center (CSCC) beginning spring or fall 2016. The track (research, clinical, or practice) will depend on qualifications and research focus of the applicant. A doctoral degree in Biostatistics or equivalent is required. Applicants should have broad research interests, potential to direct multi-center clinical trials and epidemiological studies, and ability to engage in collaborative research.
One position is at the Associate or Full Professor rank, depending on qualifications. Evidence of success in competing for coordinating center grants and/or contracts and directing applied research projects in an academic setting is highly desirable. One position is at the Assistant Professor rank.
Preference will be given to candidates with expertise in innovative applications of big data and/or new technology, including but not limited to electronic health records, data linkage and integration, “omics” data, precision medicine, mobile devices and adaptive clinical trials.
The CSCC is the longest-running NIH-funded Coordinating Center, with a diverse portfolio of clinical trials and observational studies, innovative data management technology, and close collaboration with tenured Biostatistics faculty.
Review of applications will start in December 2015. The positions will remain open until filled. Apply at http://unc.peopleadmin.com/postings/85750 and upload PDF versions of your CV, cover letter, and research statement. Arrange for three letters of recommendation to arrive via email at bennett@bios.unc.edu addressed to CSCC Faculty Search Committee, c/o Vera Bennett.
