Tenure Track Assistant Professorship focused on Neurodegeneration at the IBG

University of Colorado, Boulder, Boulder, Colorado, United States, 80301


The Institute for Behavioral Genetics, University of Colorado Boulder, invites applications for a tenure track Assistant Professorship with an academic appointment in one of the following departments:

Psychology and Neuroscience

Integrative Physiology

The Institute seeks to build on its strength in neurodegeneration and behavioral genetics research. Successful candidates should have a robust background in neurogenetics, high-content genomics, and experience with iPSC-derived neurons and glia and neural organoids. Preference will be given to those with expertise in neurodegeneration, particularly in using patient-derived iPSC lines and single-cell genomics and/or human-animal chimeric translational research. Appointees will participate in the research and teaching missions of the Institute and their academic department, which can include the Department of Integrative Physiology or the Department of Psychology and Neuroscience. This is the first of two hires focused on neurodegeneration, with a second hire in 2026 in the BioFrontiers Institute. The appointee will be expected to develop a productive, extramurally funded research program and participate in the undergraduate and graduate teaching missions of both the institute and their academic department.

The University of Colorado Boulder is committed to building a culturally diverse community of faculty, staff, and students dedicated to contributing to an inclusive campus environment. We are an Equal Opportunity employer, including veterans and individuals with disabilities.
