The Department of Otolaryngology — Head & Neck Surgery at Stanford University seeks a developmental biologist (PhD or MD) with interest in neurosensory biology to join the OHNS Department as Assistant Professor, Associate Professor or Professor in the University Tenure Line (UTL), University Medical Line (UML) or Non-Tenure Line-Research (NTL-R). We are particularly interested in candidates who have a strong background in stem cell biology and experience with combining multiple approaches, such as in vitro organoid methodologies and in vivo models, to investigate the development of sensory organs of the head and neck and to understand disorders of the hearing, vestibular, and/or olfactory systems. Investigators studying other developmental processes relevant to otolaryngology and structures of the head and neck, such as craniofacial development and neoplasia, are also highly encouraged to apply.

•  The predominant criterion for appointment in the University Tenure Line is a major commitment to research and teaching.
• The major criteria for appointment for faculty in the University Medical Line shall be excellence in the overall mix of clinical care, clinical teaching, scholarly activity that advances clinical medicine, and institutional service appropriate to the programmatic need the individual is expected to fulfill.
• The major criterion for appointment for faculty in the Non-tenure Line (Research) is evidence of high-level performance as a researcher for whose special knowledge a programmatic need exists.

Faculty rank and line will be determined by the qualifications and experience of the successful candidate.

The successful applicant should have a PhD, MD, or equivalent and should have scientific expertise, teaching experience, and accomplishments that are commensurate with their current rank. We expect the successful candidate to actively participate in departmental research events and seminars, as well as formal teaching and training opportunities. More senior candidates are expected to be leaders in their field and have a strong track record in publishing and funding.

 Applications will be reviewed beginning now and accepted until position is filled.
