Memory Disorders Division - Assistant, Associate, or Full Professor of Neurology
The Department of Neurology at Stanford University seeks a board-certified neurologist or neuroscientist to join the Memory Disorders Division as a Professor, Associate Professor, or Assistant Professor in the University Tenure Line (UTL), University Medical Line (UML), or Non-Tenure Line-Research (NTLR).
- The predominant criterion for appointment in the University Tenure Line is a major commitment to research and teaching.
- The major criteria for appointment for faculty in the University Medical Line is excellence in the overall mix of clinical care, clinical teaching, scholarly activity that advances clinical medicine, and institutional service appropriate to the programmatic need the individual is expected to fulfill.
- The major criterion for appointment for faculty in the Non-tenure Line (Research) is evidence of high-level performance as a researcher for whose special knowledge a programmatic need exists.
Faculty rank and line will be determined by the qualifications and experience of the successful candidate.
The successful applicant should have an MD, PhD, or equivalent, and an established record of excellence in Alzheimer’s disease or related disorders, and suitable teaching and scholarship experience. Clinical applicants should also have behavioral neurology fellowship training, board-certification or eligibility (ABPN), eligibility for a California medical license, and suitable clinical experience.
The Memory Disorders division has a large research footprint, which includes P30 NIH grant funding supporting the Alzheimer's Disease Research Center (ADRC). Participant recruitment for the ADRC comes largely from patients seen by Memory Disorders division faculty.
We are particularly interested in candidates who can bring a research program (either clinical/dry lab or basic/wet lab) that intersects with the ADRC and draws on ADRC resources, as well as candidates with the potential to step into administrative and leadership roles.
We expect the successful candidate to direct the applicant’s established memory disorders research program; teach medical students, graduate students, residents, and clinical and research fellows; and provide out-patient care of memory disorders patients (clinician applicants). Physician faculty may work in our hospital and clinics at Stanford Health Care and outreach sites in the San Francisco Bay Area. The successful candidate will be encouraged to interact with the wide range of clinical, translational, and basic science programs at Stanford and to enhance nationally recognized research programs at Stanford.
Applications will be reviewed beginning immediately and accepted until the position is filled.
The Neurology Department, School of Medicine, and Stanford University value faculty who are committed to advancing diversity, equity, and inclusion. Candidates may optionally include as part of their research or teaching statement a brief discussion of how their work will further these ideals.
