| Title: Director, Institute for Structural Biology and Drug Discovery Position Number: F3067 | |
| Deadline: Open until Filled | |
| Description: Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) established the Institute for Structural Biology and Drug Discovery (ISBDD) in 1996 as its nidus of structural studies. The Institute currently embraces the research of ten groups engaged in X-ray crystallography, high field NMR, computational chemistry and molecular modeling. With the retirement of the founding Director, VCU has committed to a major expansion of the ISBDD, and now seeks a Director to lead this growth. As a first step in this process, VCU has initiated the acquisition of three new NMRs at 400, 600, and 700 mHz strength to supplement current equipment. We seek an individual of scientific maturity and depth, and have developed the resources and identified appropriate research space to support his or her leadership, including an endowed chair. The expectations of this senior faculty member would be the expansion of the scientific impact of the ISBDD and the introduction of structural approaches to molecular biological research on the Medical Center and Monroe Park campuses of VCU. Because of the ongoing close relationship between the ISBDD and the NCI-designated VCU Massey Cancer Center, candidates with research programs directed at understanding the key proteins involved in neoplastic transformation and progression or in structure-based approaches to therapeutics of cancer are of particular interest. | |
| Qualifications: The successful candidate should have earned the Ph.D. and/or M.D. degree and qualify for a senior level faculty appointment with tenure. He or she should have demonstrated leadership and administrative skills and should currently direct a high-impact, externally-funded research program. | |
