Position Description:
DEPARTMENT OF EPIDEMIOLOGY AND POPULATION HEALTH
UNIVERSITY OF LOUISVILLE SCHOOL OF PUBLIC HEALTH & INFORMATION SCIENCE
Position: Environmental Epidemiologist, Open Rank
Description:
The Department of Epidemiology and Population Health in the School of Public Health and Information Sciences at the University of Louisville is seeking applicants for a tenure-track, open rank faculty position. Applicants must have a doctoral degree in epidemiology: other doctoral degrees may be considered if the applicant has at least 3 to 5 years of direct experience in epidemiologic research. Applicants should have a strong record of peer-reviewed publications. Extramural funding as a principal investigator is required for consideration at the Associate or Full Professor level. Applicants should show good potential for developing and maintaining a nationally recognized portfolio of research, and experience in teaching and mentoring. Specialization in environmental epidemiology with research relevant to climate change is strongly preferred. Applicants with research experience on the effects of chemical and radiation exposures, air pollution, the built environment, environmental health inequities, or other relevant specializations are of interest also.
The School of Public Health and Information Sciences (SPHIS) is located on the University of Louisville Health Sciences Center campus, which includes the schools of Medicine, Nursing and Dentistry. SPHIS is one of two schools of public health in Kentucky and is fully accredited by the Council on Education for Public Health. The Department of Epidemiology and Population Health has MPH, MS and PhD curricula in epidemiology, and a new BA/BS, minor in epidemiology. It is the only department in the school with two MPH concentrations: Epidemiology and Global Maternal-Child Health. All faculty are expected to teach as well as pursue research. Candidates for this position opening will be expected to develop new courses related to their specialization and contribute to the expansion of the teaching mission of the department.
Faculty members of the Department of Epidemiology and Population Health currently specialize in diverse areas of research and teaching including: nutrition, obesity and body composition; aging; molecular biomarkers for cardiometabolic diseases and cancer; infectious diseases; women's maternal-child and reproductive health; racial-ethnic, gender and geographic health disparities; global health; the effects of environmental lead, radon, heavy metal and toxic nanoparticle exposures on health; interactions among genetic, behavioral societal and environmental factors; prevention of infectious diseases including efficacy of vaccines, masking and social distancing in COVID 19, community acquired pneumonia, and HIV; and long-term consequences of diagnosed cancers on quality of life. The faculty members enjoy strong research collaborations with other departments in SPHIS and across the university. The university is home to several centers and institutes relevant to this position including the Christina Lee Brown Envirome Institute, Center for Integrated Environmental Health Sciences, Superfund Research Center, Divisions of Environmental Medicine and Infectious Diseases, and the Brown Cancer Center, as well as the Louisville Metro Department of Health & Wellness and the Kentucky Department of Public Health. SPHIS is home to the Center for Health Hazard Preparedness, the Commonwealth Institute of Kentucky, Center for Social Justice Youth Development, and the Statistical Consulting Center.
The selected applicant will receive a competitive salary, office and research space, and protected time for scholarship: start-up funds are negotiable. The department supports membership and travel to professional epidemiology organizations such the Society for Epidemiologic Research and American College of Epidemiology. We are looking for candidates interested in becoming members of a small, highly collegial, collaborative and competitive department that "punches above its weight" by placing its graduates in excellent positions.
Please include your curriculum vitae, a letter of interest including a statement of research interests and three letters of reference addressed to: Kira Taylor, Chair of Search Committee.
