Assistant, Associate and Full Professor | Farmington, CT

The Jackson Laboratory (JAX), an independent nonprofit biomedical research institution and a global leader in genetics and genomics, invites applications for faculty positions at the Assistant, Associate, and Full Professor levels at its research campus in Farmington, Connecticut. JAX Genomic Medicine brings together experimental, computational, and translational scientists to uncover the biological mechanisms of human health and disease and translate genomic discoveries into meaningful clinical impact.

Faculty benefit from an exceptionally collaborative environment that integrates human studies with cellular, tissue, organoid, animal, and computational models.  We welcome creative and collaborative investigators developing ambitious research programs across a broad range of biomedical disciplines. Candidates whose work bridges multiple areas or creates new connections across JAX research programs are particularly encouraged to apply.  
** Areas of particular interest include:*
* · Human genetics, functional genomics, genome engineering, and emerging technologies
· Immunology, including human immunology, immune-mediated disease, neuroimmunology, immune aging, and vaccine responses
· Biology of aging, resilience, and age-associated disease
· Cancer biology, cancer genomics, and cancer immunology
· Cellular, tissue, organoid, and mouse models of human disease
· Computational biology, data science, and AI-enabled biomedical discovery

We are interested in both rising investigators launching innovative independent programs and established scientists who can provide intellectual leadership, build collaborative initiatives, and expand institutional strengths.
