The Division of Hematology at Washington University in St. Louis invites applications for a physician-scientist at the level of Assistant Professor on the tenure track. The successful applicant will establish an independent, laboratory-based basic research program. The appointee will complement, expand, and strengthen the current research program in the Division of Hematology and Washington University academic community. Current Hematology Division faculty members are actively engaged in diverse research areas, including hematopoiesis, thrombosis, inflammation, stem cell biology, myeloproliferative neoplasms, and lysosomal storage diseases (see http://hematology.wustl.edu/).
The successful candidate will receive a generous start-up package, excellent laboratory space, and guaranteed protected time to perform research.

Candidates should have an M.D. or combined M.D./Ph.D. degree. The successful applicant will establish an independent, laboratory-based basic research program and will participate in the inpatient and consult services at Barnes-Jewish Hospital; establishment of an outpatient clinic will be optional. The hematology service sees a broad range of patients with classical hematological problems, including bleeding and thrombotic disorders, myeloproliferative neoplasms, bone marrow failure syndromes, autoimmune hematologic diseases, and hemoglobinopathies.
Enthusiastic physicians with the skills and interest to pursue an academic career that advances healthcare, medicine, and institutional service are encouraged to apply.
