Position Summary: Overview The Institute for Health, Health Care Policy and Aging Research, a unit of Rutgers Biomedical and Health Sciences (RBHS), invites applications for multiple faculty positions in health disparity and health equity with population health research experience or training. Health and social inequalities are observed at the individual, relationship/network, community/neighborhood, and societal levels, and are embedded in life course dynamics. Any successful candidates will have research expertise on the social, cultural and structural determinants and/or observable manifestations of urban inequality at any of these levels. Topics could include, but are not limited to, disparities in health, income, transportation, or residence relating to race/ethnicity, socio-economic status, gender, religion or other characteristics. We are particularly interested in researchers using innovative theory and quantitative methods that account for social and spatial context. Applicants with training or focus across disciplines such as clinical medicine, public health, medicine, nursing, psychology, demography, sociology, or other related fields in addition to geography are encouraged to apply. Minimum Education and Experience: A doctoral or equivalent degree in medicine, nursing, psychology, public health, sociology, demography, policy or equivalent are strongly desired. A strong theoretical grounding and quantitative and/or qualitative research skills with excellent oral and written communication skills to support developing a rigorous program of research is expected. A track record of independent funding through successfully competing for research grants is highly desired. A successful candidate will have joint appointments in the Institute for Health with tenure-track or tenured appointment within a mutually fitting Rutgers school or department with teaching, clinical, and/or mentoring responsibilities. Opportunity exists for appointment as a Chancellor's Scholar or endowed chair position as well as protective efforts and support during the early years of hire. Salary and academic rank will be commensurate with a candidates' achievements including funding and publication record, as well as other relevant professional experience. Initial support for establishing a strong program of research will be provided with the expectation that the research program will be progressively supported by extramural funding. Required Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities: A doctoral or equivalent degree in medicine, nursing, psychology, public health, sociology, demography, policy or equivalent are strongly desired. A strong theoretical grounding and quantitative and/or qualitative research skills with excellent oral and written communication skills to support developing a rigorous program of research is expected Posting Number: 20FA0522 Location: Rutgers University - New Brunswick
