Candidates with expertise in biochemistry or environmental physiology, biostatistics, genomics and biomedical fields are particularly encouraged to apply; however, all disciplines of biology will be considered. The ideal candidate will also demonstrate a commitment to engaging a diverse student body and creating an inclusive classroom environment in a liberal arts context.

The position begins July 1, 2023 in preparation for the fall semester of 2023; instruction begins September 5. Research funding is available to help visiting faculty continue their research activities.

Reference letters will be requested before the final round of interview.
