[Compbio-allhands] Fwd: Assistant Professor Position in Biochemistry CU Boulder

---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Brian Shoichet <bshoichet(a)gmail.com> Date: Mon, Oct 14, 2013 at 11:56 AM Subject: Fwd: Assistant Professor Position in Biochemistry CU Boulder To: Ryan Coleman <ryan.g.coleman(a)gmail.com> FYI. Brian ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Amy E Palmer <amy.palmer(a)colorado.edu> Date: Mon, Oct 14, 2013 at 11:45 AM Subject: Assistant Professor Position in Biochemistry CU Boulder To: Amy E Palmer <amy.palmer(a)colorado.edu> Dear Colleagues I am writing to request your help in identifying candidates for a *faculty position in Biochemistry at the Assistant Professor* level at the *University of Colorado, Boulder*. In addition to establishing a vigorous research program, the new faculty will participate in teaching biochemistry or chemistry at the undergraduate and graduate levels. Candidates working in all areas of research will be considered. We have a healthy graduate program with each faculty member taking about one new graduate student a year, as well as excellent support facilities and a large amount of shared research equipment. Because the Biochemistry Program is situated within the Department of Chemistry & Biochemistry, there are many opportunities to interact with chemistry faculty, some of whom have considerable interest in biochemistry. We also have a joint graduate program with the Department of Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology, located on campus, thus there are excellent interactions with molecular biologists and geneticists. There are strong connections between biochemistry and the physical sciences, and these connections are supported by an NIH-funded training program in Biophysics. Finally, we moved into a new state of the art Jennie Smoley Caruthers Biotechnology Building about 1 year ago which also houses the Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering and the BioFrontiers Institute, providing ample opportunity for cross-disciplinary and interdisciplinary interactions. The University has a strong interest in recruiting minority and women for faculty positions. There is a general feeling that simply stating in advertisements that "The University of Colorado is an Affirmative Action/Equal Opportunity Institution" is not enough. We would like to maximize chances of identifying all minorities and women who would be appropriate candidates for present and future openings in the Biochemistry Program. We would greatly appreciate it if you would bring this opening to the attention of candidates you feel are suitable. Enclosed is a copy of our position announcement. The position is advertised in Sciencejobs and Naturejobs.**** Sincerely,**** Amy Palmer ************************************ Associate Professor Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry BioFrontiers Institute UCB 596 3415 Colorado Ave Univesity of Colorado Boulder, CO 80303 303-492-1945 http:/Chem.colorado.edu/palmergroup -- Brian Shoichet, Professor http://www.uoft.bkslab.org/ University of Toronto, Leslie Dan Faculty of Pharmacy Donnelly Centre Room 604 (416) 978-7224 University of California, San Francisco Dept. of Pharmaceutical Chemistry -- Brian Shoichet, Professor http://www.uoft.bkslab.org/ University of Toronto, Leslie Dan Faculty of Pharmacy Donnelly Centre Room 604 (416) 978-7224 University of California, San Francisco Dept. of Pharmaceutical Chemistry
