There are still lots of open positions. Let's find the one that's right for you.
The Center for Drug Discovery (CDD) at Northeastern University invites applications for open rank tenure-track/tenured faculty positions at the Assistant, Associate, and Full Professor levels with projected start dates in 2025. The CDD seeks to hire faculty members with research programs at the medicinal chemistry, preclinical, behavioral, and/or translational levels that address addiction and mental health with a focus on AI/computational approaches to drug discovery and drug development. Junior scientists using breakthrough technologies are welcome to apply, as are senior faculty with internationally recognized research programs and strong funding, and whose expertise will complement the activities of faculty affiliated with the CDD toward drug discovery. Competitive applicants will have research programs leveraging Computational Biology, Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) to advance drug discovery. The targeted academic home is one of the departments in the Bouvé College of Health Sciences; a joint appointment in another department/college can be considered. The mission of the CDD is to engage in drug discovery and drug development that will lead to new medications to address a variety of unmet medical needs, especially those involving addiction and mental health. The CDD provides an excellent environment to train junior faculty, students and postdoctoral fellows in the art and science of drug discovery and drug development. The CDD holds an NIH/NIDA-funded T32 training grant award to train three graduate students and two postdoctoral fellows. Our tenure and promotion process values collaborative research and teamwork. Hires will be mentored for success, with mentoring teams and group guidance. In addition, a strong and effective faculty development strategy is part of the Northeastern institutional mission.
