Purdue University, Physics & Astronomy Department

The Department of Physics and Astronomy in the College of Science at Purdue University seeks applications for a faculty position at the level of Assistant Professor in the area of experimental biological physics. All areas of experimental biological physics will be considered. Successful candidates will have a joint appointment in both the Department of Physics and Astronomy and the Department of Chemistry (75:25 appointment). We are interested in outstanding scientists with an established track record, a commitment to leading a preeminent research program, and a clear vision for future innovation. Current research efforts within the department apply a variety of experimental and theoretical techniques to investigate intracellular dynamics, cell growth, cell sensing, and structural and electron dynamics in a variety of systems. The department is looking to integrate a creative scientist into the cutting-edge interdisciplinary environment provided by the Purdue University Life Sciences Institutes, including the Purdue Institute of Inflammation, Immunology and Infectious Disease (PI4D) and the Purdue Institute for Integrative Neuroscience (PIIN).

The Department of Physics and Astronomy in the College of Science at Purdue University seeks applications for a faculty position at the level of Assistant Professor in the area of experimental particle physics. All areas of experimental particle physics will be considered. We are interested in outstanding scientists with an established track record, international stature, a commitment to leading a preeminent research program, and a clear vision for future developments that will complement the current efforts within the department.
