  Assistant Professor (cell and molecular and gene-environment research)
  The Center for Precision Environmental Health ( https://www.bcm.edu/centers/precision-environmental-health ) invites applications for a faculty search. Applications will be considered for a non tenure-track Assistant Professor position.
  Center faculty enjoy access to Baylor's impressive state-of-the-art core facilities ( https://www.bcm.edu/research/advanced-technology-core-labs ) at subsidized rates, outstanding M.D/Ph.D. ( https://www.bcm.edu/education/programs/md-phd-program ) and Ph.D. ( https://www.bcm.edu/education/schools/graduate-school-of-biomedical-sciences/about-us ) training programs, and a new interinstitutional T32 training grant in Precision Environmental Health. Candidates with cancer-relevant research programs are also eligible for funding from the Cancer and Prevention Research Institute of Texas (CPRIT)( http://www.cprit.state.tx.us/research/ ).
  Center faculty hold academic appointments in one or more of Baylor's basic, translational or clinical departments including Molecular & Cellular Biology, Neuroscience, Molecular & Human Genetics, and Medicine. Ample opportunities exist for collaborations with faculty across the Texas Medical Center, including U.T. MD Anderson Cancer Center, UT Health, Texas A&M University, Texas Children's Hospital, Houston Methodist Research Institute, University of Houston, and Rice University.
  The successful candidate will use innovative approaches to study important questions in cell and molecular biology and gene-environment interactions, broadly defined. Applicants' research programs should complement existing Center faculty strengths in environmental health, cell and developmental biology, genetics, epigenetics, cancer biology, neurocognitive/neurodegenerative disease, and model systems of human disease, including vertebrate and invertebrate model organisms. The selected candidate will also be expected to advance Baylor's strategic plan by contributing to initiatives in Population Health and Precision Medicine.
  Candidates must hold a doctoral degree (PhD, MD, or equivalent) with a strong record of scholarly activity.
