Assistant / Associate Professor - Metabolomics

 

The Arizona State University’s College of Health Solutions (CHS) invites applications for a full-time, 9-month tenure-eligible faculty member at the rank of Assistant Professor or Associate Professor. 

 

We seek candidates who have innovative research programs centered on metabolomics, ideally with clinical applications, and who are interested in synergizing with CHS research focused on precision health and human performance. We expect successful candidates to develop rigorous independent research programs, secure extramural funding, and participate in collaborative team science projects. The position also requires developing and teaching courses at the undergraduate or graduate levels, mentoring students in research, and providing service to CHS, ASU, and professional societies. The selection criteria include the originality, the impact, the fit with the CHS focus areas (see paragraph below), and the interdisciplinarity of the candidate’s scientific work.

 

Through teaching, academic programs, service, and research, all faculty at the College of Health Solutions address one or more of our three major areas of focus: 1) The systems of health care and the health needs of populations; 2) Health and human performance of individuals across the lifespan; 3) Personalized interventions through precision health. Across these areas, we work to address complex and difficult health problems that require transformative collaboration, translational research, and innovation. We are particularly interested in making an impact on populations with health disparities.

 

At ASU, we work to maximize opportunities for people from diverse backgrounds, abilities, and perspectives. We value and encourage cultural and intellectual diversity, and we strive to foster a welcoming and inclusive environment for all faculty, staff, and students - which we believe is critical to our success as a community. All individuals who can strengthen the diversity of our academic community are encouraged to apply and will be considered without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, protected veteran status, or any other basis protected by law.

About the College of Health Solutions

The College of Health Solutions is committed to translating scientific health research and discovery into practice to improve health outcomes through education, research, and service. We equip students with the knowledge and skills to influence healthier lifestyle choices; develop creative interventions to improve the health of people and populations; analyze and translate large amounts of health data into solutions; and maximize the technology, science, business, and application of diagnostics. Our research programs encompass basic science, discovery science, clinical trials, intervention science, and measurement of health outcomes. In all cases, our faculty use interdisciplinary approaches to address the complex systems that underpin health problems. We are highly collaborative, transparent, and team-oriented. Our innovative organizational structure includes translational teams that move science from labs into communities with evidence-based interventions that make a difference, as well as affinity networks where teams of people work together to improve methodologies and processes. All of our programs, in and out of the classroom, are designed with the goal of improving the health of people and communities.

 

Current training programs include behavioral health, biomedical diagnostics, biomedical informatics, exercise science, health promotion, health sciences, kinesiology, medical studies, nutrition, population health, the science of health care delivery, and speech and hearing science. Our programs are offered at ASU’s Downtown Phoenix, Tempe, Polytechnic, West, and Lake Havasu campuses, as well as on Mayo Clinic’s campus in north Phoenix.
