Understanding the application of precision health to support personalized care that aims to prevent and manage health conditions while incorporating the patient’s perspective is a key opportunity for nurses. As a result, the Ross and Carol Nese College of Nursing is pleased to announce an open-rank tenure line faculty position.

Faculty Position:

With a focus on exploring the role of genomics while applying emerging science and technology in nursing, you will enjoy the benefit of being a member of the Penn State’s R1 research community. Appointed as a co-funded hire, you will engage with the diverse research portfolio and expertise in the Huck Institutes of the Life Sciences and the Nese College of Nursing. Further, being a leader in genomics research and education throughout the University, you will help integrate genomics into the teaching and research programs of all our academic units while also contributing to the Ross and Carol Nese College of Nursing’s mission.

An integral member of the research faculty in the Nese College of Nursing, you will be expected to direct a research program focused on genomics, encompassing the ethical, legal, social, or political implications of genetics and genomics in precision health. In addition to accelerating strong collaborative interdisciplinary research, you will teach both undergraduate and graduate level courses and direct dissertations. Also charged with engaging in outreach, you will work to disseminate research on genomics to a range of stakeholders, including policymakers, nurses, and other practitioners at national, regional, and local conferences and meetings.

You will need the following clearances: PA State Police Criminal Background Check, PA Child Abuse History Clearance Form, and Federal (FBI) Fingerprint Criminal Background Check.

Faculty candidate:

To be successful in your pursuit of this opportunity, you should be a leader and researcher with the ability to demonstrate your impact on policy and/or practice. Additionally, you should have a strong publication record and a track record of securing external funding. A nursing license is strongly preferred.

Further, you are an ideal addition to our faculty if you have an interest in and commitment to becoming an integral member of the interdisciplinary scholarly community responsible for contributing to the University’s initiative on Health Ethics, Ecology, and Policy.

Truly founded in collaboration, you would be a good fit for this role and culture if you are experienced in fostering collaborations with colleagues in other disciplines and units across the college. Finally, we seek a colleague who will pursue a program of externally funded research that is published in highly regarded, peer-reviewed journals within the fields of nursing, genomics, and health services research.

The Huck Institute of the Life Sciences:

The Huck Institute of the Life Sciences is recognized nationally and internationally for promoting excellence in research and graduate training in the life sciences and its leadership in integrating life sciences across academic fields. The goal of this co-funded appointment is to expand our faculty’s expertise and to provide national and international academic leadership in genomics.

Best envisioned as a web, the Huck Institute serves as the University’s catalyst to developing deep collaboration across disciplines to generate new and profoundly integrative approaches to life sciences research.

Huck Institutes provide a rich environment in which faculty, research professors, postdocs and graduate/undergraduate students regularly interact and conduct collaborative studies. Affiliated faculty have access to the Huck Institutes’ state-of-the-art core facilities and the opportunity to work closely with colleagues from the 33 Huck Institutes’ cross-cutting centers and institutes (e.g., the Center for Computational Biology and Bioinformatics (http://www.ccbb.psu.edu), and the Center for Medical Genomics (http://cmg.psu.edu/).
