Faculty Positions

Virology and Bacterial Pathogenesis (Bacterial/Host Interactions)

The Microbiology Department at UT Southwestern Medical Center is seeking new faculty at the Assistant Professor (tenure track) level in virology and bacterial pathogenesis (including bacterial/host interactions). This will be a rolling search until positions are filled. Appointees will be expected to develop front-rank, competitive, independent research programs on medically relevant pathogens.

For virology, some preference will be given to candidates working on RNA viruses and/or viral pathogenesis. The appointees will contribute to the teaching of medical and graduate students. Attractive start-up packages, including a competitive salary and generous laboratory space in a new building, are available to conduct research in an expanding, dynamic environment.

Candidates also will be considered for UT Southwestern’s $1.2M Endowed Scholars (start-up) Program. Candidates should have a PhD and/or MD degree with at least three to four years of postdoctoral experience and an exceptional publication record. Candidates should send a cover letter, CV, contact information for three letters of recommendation, and a brief summary of future research to:
