The Department of Physiology and Biophysics at the University of  
Colorado School of Medicine invites applications for a tenure-eligible  
faculty position at the Assistant/Associate Professor level in the  
areas of molecular, cellular, or systems neuroscience. We are  
particularly interested in candidates who explore physiological  
mechanisms using innovative techniques in electrophysiology,  
biophysics, photonics, and/or bioengineering. We expect the appointee  
to conduct vigorous independent research and participate in  
professional and graduate training.

The new appointee will be part of an actively expanding Department (http://www.uchsc.edu/physiology/ 
). We recently moved to a new state-of-the-art research facility at  
the Anschutz Medical Campus (http://www.uchsc.edu/ 
anschutzmedicalcampus/) and will appoint up to three new faculty  
members over the next three years. Current faculty in the Department  
have research programs in systems neuroscience, sensory physiology,  
developmental neurobiology, synaptic function, cell signaling, ion  
transport and channel biology, and endocrine and reproductive  
physiology. We especially encourage candidates with research interests  
that complement and extend existing research in the Department to  
apply. Additional scientific interactions occur within the  
interdepartmental programs: Neuroscience; Cell, Stem Cell, and  
Developmental Biology; Reproductive Science; Molecular Biology;  
Biomolecular Structure; Cancer Biology; and Immunology. Many of these  
programs have associated core facilities. For example, the  
Neuroscience Program provides its members with core facilities in  
light and electron microscopy, and mouse and zebrafish gene  
manipulation technologies (http://www.uchsc.edu/neuroscience/).  
Opportunities also exist for interactions with the downtown campus of  
the University of Colorado Denver.

Salary is commensurate with skills and experience. The University of  
Colorado offers a full benefits package. Information on University  
benefits programs, including eligibility, is located athttp://www.cu.edu/pbs/
