Assistant Professor​/Associate Professor​/Professor-Molecular Epidemiologist

LSU Health seeks candidates with research expertise in molecular epidemiology or cancer epidemiology. Skills and training in epidemiologic methods, cancer, infectious, social, and clinical epidemiology, informatics, or implementation science are especially desired. Evidence of extramural research funding and publications must be commensurate with years of professional experience. We expect our faculty to build an externally funded research program, publish in leading journals, and be committed to advancing health equity and to impacting public and population health.

As minimum qualifications for consideration, applicants will have evidence of or strong potential for establishing an independent, extramurally funded research program, a demonstrated interest in teaching, and a commitment to epidemiology and public health. Candidates will be responsible for advising and mentoring students, post-doctoral fellows, and junior faculty scholars. Faculty members will receive a competitive salary, dedicated research space, and protected time for scholarship.

The position includes start-up funds for research support and a relocation package. The department offers a highly collegial environment with growth potential. We are particularly looking for candidates who can operate effectively in a diverse community of students and faculty and share our vision of helping all constituents reach their full potential.
