Position Summary

The Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at Michigan State University (MSU) invites applications for a tenure-track faculty position at the rank of Assistant Professor. We seek an innovative scientist who will establish an outstanding, independent research program in drug discovery, focusing on assessing, understanding, predicting and/or modeling the action of drugs in the body. Both computational and experimental researchers are encouraged to apply.

Areas of interest include but are not limited to:

In silico drug development
Novel therapeutic target classes and mechanisms
Emerging drug modalities

The Drug Discovery Program has built expertise in Medicinal Chemistry and in translational sciences, particularly in areas to understand absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) properties of small molecule therapeutics as well as pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) properties that give insights into what the body does to the drug (PK) and what the drug does to the body (PD). The program also has a strong in vitro and high-throughput screening center with many types of technology formats to offer.

Candidates should also leverage the strengths of the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, which has strong research programs across computational biology, structural biology, molecular plant sciences, cancer biology and neurodegenerative diseases.
