Professor and Co-Director The Redox Biology Center (RBC) at UNL, funded as a Center of Biomedical Research Excellence by the National Institutes of Health, invites nominations and applications from established investigators for a tenured Full Professor position in the Department of Biochemistry and Co-Director of the Center. The RBC is a major focus group for research in redox biology, incorporating various investigators at UNL and the University of Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha. Areas such as thiol-based redox signaling and gene regulation, redox control of neurodegenerative diseases and cancer, biochemistry of redox-active trace elements, structural biology, proteomics/metabolomics, microbial pathogenesis and redox homeostasis are all current targets of investigation. The Center also operates mass-spectrometry and spectroscopy core research facilities. The successful applicant will be expected to lead an internationally recognized, federally funded research program and contribute to the development and leadership of the Center. The position will be housed in the state-of-the-art George W. Beadle Center, and carries with it a 12-month, state-funded appointment. This senior hire is the first of several new positions that the RBC will fill in various areas of redox biology during the next four years. Additional information on applying for this position will be available in September 2008. Assistant Professor The Redox Biology Center (RBC) at UNL, funded as a Center of Biomedical Research Excellence by the National Institutes of Health, invites applications for a tenure-leading Assistant Professor position in the Department of Biochemistry. Any area of redox biology will be considered, but we are particularly interested in applicants with expertise in bioinformatics/functional genomics, mass-spectrometry, and/or redox regulation/ signaling. The RBC is a major focus group for research in redox biology, incorporating various investigators at UNL and the University of Nebraska Medical Center in nearby Omaha. Areas such as thiol-based redox signaling and gene regulation, redox control of neurodegenerative diseases, cancer and aging, biochemistry of redox-active trace elements, structural biology, proteomics/metabolomics, microbial pathogenesis and redox homeostasis are all current targets of investigation. The Center also operates mass-spectrometry and spectroscopy core research facilities. The successful applicant will be expected to establish an internationally recognized, federally funded research program. The associated teaching commitment will be one course per academic year at the undergraduate or graduate level. The position will be housed in the state-of-the-art George W. Beadle Center, and carries with it a 12-month, state-funded appointment and a generous start-up package. This hire is one of several new faculty positions that the RBC will fill in various areas of redox biology during the next four years.
