# Tenure-Track Faculty Sought for Harvard's Department of Stem Cell and Regenerative Biology **Posted Date:** August 21, 2013 **Job Type:** Professional **Job Location:** Harvard University - Department of Stem Cell and Regenerative Biology *Harvard University is recruiting tenure-track faculty for the multi-disciplinary [**Department of Stem Cell and Regenerative Biology (HSCRB)**](http://www.scrb.harvard.edu/), Harvard’s first joint Department bridging the Faculty of Arts and Sciences and the Harvard Medical School.* The **Department of Stem Cell and Regenerative Biology** is situated in the heart of the University’s Cambridge campus, with research conducted in new state-of-the-art laboratories there, as well as in three of Harvard’s affiliated world-class hospitals. The ultimate goal of the Department’s research is combating disease and tissue degeneration and improving human health. The Department’s research and teaching mission emphasizes developmental biology, stem and progenitor cell biology, tissue and organ formation, tissue repair, regeneration, and aging. These topics are studied at the molecular, cellular, and organismic levels across a number of organ systems by faculty with expertise in the fields of developmental biology, neurobiology, genetics, immunology, hematopoiesis, cancer, cardiovascular development and metabolic disease. A list of HSCRB faculty is available at . We seek to hire faculty with a history of innovative research using human, mammalian, or non-mammalian systems. We are particularly interested in applicants who are applying novel tools or experimental and informatics approaches to advance regenerative biology and medicine. Candidates should possess an interest and aptitude in teaching undergraduate, graduate, and/or medical students and will join a dedicated core of scientists and physician-scientists utilizing stem cell and regenerative biology to inform the understanding and treatment of human disease. **Basic Scientists in the Field of Regenerative Biology** We are seeking Ph.D. scientists with demonstrated research interest in developmental and stem cell biology enabling regenerative biology – with an emphasis on organ system repair and regeneration. **Physician Scientists in the Field of Regenerative Medicine** We are seeking M.D. or M.D./Ph.D. physician-scientists with strong scientific credentials who are interested in clinical translation and who are applying novel tools to advance regenerative medicine – with an emphasis on developing new molecular and cellular therapeutics. **Application Process** Applications, including *curriculum vitae*, reprints of publications, statement of present and future research plans (1-3 pages), and three letters of recommendation should be addressed to Professors Paola Arlotta and Kiran Musunuru, HSCRB Search Committee, and submitted using the web-form available at .
