The ideal candidate is expected to have a successful record of extramurally-funded research, or to demonstrate potential to obtain extramural research funding. Candidates should possess excellent teamwork and interpersonal skills. Enthusiasm for teaching and mentoring a new generation of scientists and practitioners of epidemiology will also be highly advantageous for prospective candidates. Diversity and inclusion are key values of the departments involved and will be considered in hiring decisions.
