Position description
Assistant Professor in Marine Animal Physiology
The Scripps Institution of Oceanography (SIO) at the University of California, San Diego invites applications for an Assistant Professor position in Marine Animal Physiology. We seek candidates who take innovative approaches to address fundamental physiological questions regarding invertebrate or vertebrate marine animals. Example areas of research include (but are not limited to) neurophysiology, diving physiology, cardiac and respiratory physiology, osmotic and acid-base regulation, energy metabolism, biomineralization, biomechanics, symbiosis, immunology, and reproduction. A successful candidate would integrate physiology at the organismal level with molecular, biochemical and cellular biology, and/or environmental physiology. A comparative and evolutionary approach, as well as links to climate change biology, aquaculture, ecotoxicology or conservation are encouraged. We seek applicants with the expertise and desire to teach lecture- and laboratory-based physiology courses at the undergraduate and graduate levels.
The successful candidate will have the opportunity to interact with multidisciplinary colleagues at SIO, with other departments within the large and dynamic UC San Diego campus, and with the vibrant scientific and industry community of Southern California. Candidates will be evaluated on their potential to establish a vigorous research program, provide intellectual leadership in their field, acquire extramural funds, train and mentor students, teach in the marine biology undergraduate major, and contribute to building an equitable and diverse scholarly environment. Salary is commensurate with qualifications and based on University of California pay scales.

In our academic hiring processes, we will be keeping this in mind as we consider achievement relative to opportunity.
