Professor and
Head
Heart and Cardiovascular Research Center
Eastern Virginia Medical School
Eastern Virginia Medical School is making a
major commitment to strengthen, expand, and
integrate the academic enterprise in basic and
clinical research. During the upcoming year,
EVMS will undergo an aggressive recruiting
effort to develop four principal focus areas of
research excellence: Heart/Cardiovascular;
Diabetes/Metabolic Diseases; Women’s
Health/Infant Development; and Cancer
Biology/Infectious Diseases.
As part of this
process, we solicit applications for Professor
and Head of a new Heart and Cardiovascular
Research Center at EVMS. The candidate is
expected to:
- have a
Ph.D. and/or M.D.
- be a
nationally recognized and established
scientist in the cardiovascular sciences
- have
active NIH R01 or comparable cutting-edge
extramural research grant support with
translational impact
- possess
outstanding records of scholarly activity
- foster a
collaborative research environment in the
new Research Center
The specific
area of research is open, but potentially may be
on diabetes and heart disease, cardiac ischemia,
myocardial regeneration, fetal programming of
the cardiovascular system, or gene
targeting/transfer. The new Center Head will
hold a primary academic appointment within the
Department of Internal Medicine and be expected
to participate in hiring an Associate Director,
foster collaborative research ties, establish a
nationally prominent research center, and
develop an NIH Program Project or Centers Grant
in cardiovascular research. EVMS offers superb
opportunities for collaboration and growth, and
the Heart and Cardiovascular Research Center
will span and be comprised of investigators from
several academic departments.
Applicants
should submit a letter of interest, NIH
