FACULTY POSITION AT SCRIPPS INSTITUTION OF OCEANOGRAPHY, UC SAN DIEGO – Marine Natural Products/Marine Biotechnology The University of California San Diego invites applications for a tenure-track faculty position at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography (SIO, https://scripps.ucsd.edu ). This position will be filled at the Assistant Professor level. We seek a motivated, broad-thinking scientist and educator to establish a vigorous research program and provide intellectual leadership in their field while complementing existing expertise at SIO and other UC San Diego departments.

We strive for interdisciplinary engagement and rigorous data science. We seek candidates that have a history of innovative research in fields ranging from, but not limited to: natural products chemistry, chemical ecology, metabolomics or other ‘omic’ sciences, pharmacology, biotechnology, and chemical and synthetic biology. The successful candidate will be expected to develop a strong, marine-focused extramurally supported research program that integrates with and elevates existing marine natural products research at SIO, other departments at UC San Diego, and, in particular, the Center for Marine Biotechnology and Biomedicine (CMBB, https://scripps.ucsd.edu/cmbb ). The successful candidate will be expected to demonstrate a commitment to teaching excellence at the undergraduate and/or graduate levels, develop courses that promote student knowledge of marine natural products, marine biotechnology, marine chemical ecology and/or related topics, and train the next generation of researchers.
