The
Wu Tsai Institute
(WTI) is a university-wide research initiative at Yale University whose mission is to understand human cognition and explore human potential by sparking interdisciplinary inquiry. WTI invites applications for multiple endowed faculty positions, at any rank, to begin July 2025. We seek outstanding applicants from a broad range of disciplines, including (but not limited to) neuroscience, psychology, cognitive science, data science, computer science, and engineering. Successful candidates will receive a tenure-track or tenured appointment in one or more departments in the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, School of Engineering and Applied Science, and/or School of Medicine. WTI is dedicated to hiring, mentoring, and advocating for colleagues who foster equity and excellence in our community through their research, teaching, and service. Plans to promote these values should be integral to the application, backed by a commitment to diversity, inclusion, and multicultural competence. Women, protected veterans, persons with disabilities, and members of underrepresented groups are strongly encouraged to apply. We are eager to accommodate the needs of families and welcome applications from dual-career couples to this search or a combination of Yale searches.Background: WTI was founded in 2021 by a historic gift from Joe Tsai and Clara Wu Tsai to reveal fundamental truths about the mind through the integrated study of the brain. Based at 100 College Street in New Haven, with research linkages across Yale campuses, WTI rests on three pillars that coordinate its research activities: the Center for Neurodevelopment and Plasticity, the Center for Neurocognition and Behavior, and the Center for Neurocomputation and Machine Intelligence. WTI enables interdisciplinary inquiry through: fellowships for co-mentored postdocs, grad students, and undergrads; shared research facilities and services with cutting-edge technologies; collaborative grants to nucleate disruptive ideas; and regular conferences, seminars, and professional development. WTI integrates approaches across disciplines through common mathematical, statistical, and computational frameworks. WTI is creating an inclusive environment that confronts inequity and celebrates diverse backgrounds, identities, and perspectives. For more information, please visit the WTI website:
