APAP believes that pay transparency is a critical step toward pay equity and benefits both the job seeker and the employer. For those reasons, we are now requiring that employers include a salary range in all new job postings.
Postings that are backfilled from another association’s career center may not include salary information.
The Department of Genetics at the University of Georgia (UGA) invites applications for a tenure-track Assistant Professor in Human Genetics. The ideal candidate will establish an active and independent research program grounded in the genetic study of human populations related to human biology, development, evolution, and/or disease. The candidate may also use computational and/or model experimental systems to address mechanistic questions.
The Department of Genetics offers a collegial work environment that spans a broad range of research, from developmental and molecular genetics to evolutionary biology and ecology, with strengths in functional genomics, chromatin biology, evolutionary genetics, and microbiology. Laboratory and office space is located in a building shared by the Department of Genetics, the Department of Biochemistry & Molecular Biology, and the Institute of Bioinformatics. There are excellent opportunities for collaborations among faculty as well as access to the Georgia Genomics and Bioinformatics Core, the Biomedical Microscopy Core, and the Georgia Advanced Computing Resource Center.
