Professorship (W2) of General and pediatric interventional Radiology

As one of Europe’s leading research universities, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität (LMU) in Munich is committed to the highest international standards of excellence in research and teaching. Building on its more than 500-year-long tradition, it offers a broad spectrum that covers all areas of knowledge within its 18 Faculties, ranging from the humanities, law, economics and social sciences, to medicine and the natural sciences.

The Faculty of Medicine invites applications for a

Professorship (W2) (6 years/tenure track)

of General and pediatric interventional Radiology

commencing as soon as possible.

The professorship will be located at the Department of Radiology at the LMU University Hospital. The professorship serves to strengthen the focus of the Department of Radiology in minimally invasive oncology, transplantation medicine, rare diseases including vascular malformations, and the care of children. In addition to extensive experience in the clinical care of correspondingly affected adults and children down to infancy, evidence of experience in basic research – cellular, small animal, translational – is also desired. Experience in managing a ward with interventional radiology patients is preferred, and evidence of successful acquisition of public third-party funding is required.

LMU Munich seeks to appoint a highly qualified junior academic to this professorship and, therefore, especially encourages early-career scholars to apply. Prerequisites for this position are a university degree, a doctoral degree or a comparable specific qualification and a board certification in radiology. With an excellent record in research and teaching to date, prospective candidates will have demonstrated the potential for an outstanding academic career.

The initial appointment will be for six years. After a minimum of three years, it can be converted into a permanent position pending a positive evaluation of the candidate’s performance in research and teaching as well as his or her personal aptitude and if all legal conditions are met.

LMU Munich makes a point of providing newly appointed professors with various types of support, such as welcoming services and assistance for dual career couples.

LMU Munich is an equal opportunity employer. The University continues to be very successful in increasing the number of female faculty members and strongly encourages applications from female candidates. LMU Munich intends to enhance the diversity of its faculty members. Furthermore, disabled candidates with essentially equal qualifications will be given preference.

Please submit your application comprising a curriculum vitae, scientific career, documentation of academic degrees and certificates, references, a list of publications and lectures, third-party funds as well as a short application form (see https://www.med.lmu.de/en/academic-career/professorship/) to the Dean of the Faculty of Medicine, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München, by email to berufungen@dek.med.uni-muenchen.de, no later than December 3rd 2026.
