Multiple, Tenured/Tenure-Track Faculty Positions Applying Precision Approaches in Toxicology, Environmental Health, and Disease Treatment

at Indiana University Bloomington

Indiana University is undertaking a major, multi-year initiative to expand research activities related to the use of non-mammalian model organisms, animal alternatives, and animal compliments for understanding environmental contributions to human health, with a special emphasis on chemical safety research. We are particularly interested in those working to advance research in the development of non-targeted biological and chemical assays, as well as data-driven approaches to understand biomolecular, physiological, and toxicological responses of chemical exposure, including pharmaceuticals and complex environmental mixtures. This work will help identify and classify chemical pollution, support the implementation of chemical regulations, accelerate drug discovery, and improve food safety/security.

We encourage applications from scholars in biology, chemistry, computer science, engineering, medicine, physiology, toxicology, or related fields who apply interdisciplinary perspectives across a variety of these domains. This initiative spans the IU Bloomington campus, including the

College of Arts and Sciences ,

Luddy School of Informatics, Computing, and Engineering ,
