About Dell Medical School

As part of The University of Texas at Austin, one of the nation's leading research universities, the Dell Medical School pursues innovation in the redesign of healthcare delivery, excellence in healthcare research, and programs in interdisciplinary and inter‑professional education. It is the fifth medical school in the UT System and the first medical school established in nearly five decades by a member of the Association of American Universities, an organization of leading public and private research universities.

The University of Texas Medical Center, anchored by Dell Medical School, is defining the future of health. Announced in August 2023 with planning and implementation underway, the University of Texas Medical Center will cement Austin as a premier destination for health care alongside other major Texas cities. With two new, state‑of‑the‑art hospitals – a UT specialty hospital and a cancer center being built by MD Anderson – plus the academic and research expertise of UT, the University of Texas Medical Center will provide the integrated, world‑class care that is a hallmark of academic medicine.

The Dell Medical School is especially interested in qualified candidates who can contribute to excellence within the health learning system.

The Department of Neurology is comprised of faculty representing a wide range of specialties in adult and pediatric neurology with a focus on delivering outstanding care to the community. The neurology faculty are also members of the Mulva Clinic for the Neurosciences, a unique institute consisting of faculty in the Departments of Neurology, Neurosurgery, and Psychiatry conducting world‑class translational and clinical neuroscience research across The University of Texas at Austin.

The Department's mission is to transform the health and lives of the diverse communities we serve. To accomplish this our priorities are to:

• Deliver exceptional multidisciplinary neurological care for children and adults
• Provide comprehensive education for students, clinicians, patients, and the community
• Conduct and disseminate world‑class neuroscience research focused on therapies

The review of applications will continue until the positions are filled.
