The Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology, and Reproductive Sciences is seeking a full-time faculty member with a primary interest in establishing and / or growing a robust research program in a department with a dynamic and diverse research portfolio.

The faculty may focus on any area of research that falls within the broad research scope of the Department to improve the health and well-being of women, transgender and gender nonbinary people, and people with the capacity for pregnancy in the United Status and globally.

Faculty may choose to pursue an area of research that is aligned or in collaboration with current research activities within the Department or develop new areas and programs that are not addressed within our current research portfolio.

The Department currently has a particular focus on research in sexual and reproductive health including contraception and abortion, environmental health and justice, health disparities, health equity, preterm birth, Black maternal health, uterine fibroids, and cancer screening and prevention.

The faculty member's research program must fall broadly within quantitative or qualitative methodologic approaches related to human subjects research including but not limited to clinical, environmental health related sciences (e.

This faculty position will include significant initial salary support for research and academic time over 5 years, as well as funds for research activities (e.

g., research staff and equipment), with the amount of support based upon the successful candidate's existing grant funding and rank.

Ultimately, the faculty member will be expected to obtain research grant funding to help support their ongoing salary and program of research.

  • Interest in broad academic activities including mentorship, teaching, service, advocacy, and as applicable, clinical care.
  • Experience and training in community and stakeholder engagement to center equity and anti-racism in research.
