We value our department’s collaborative atmosphere and breadth of scientific areas including  computational, systems, cellular, and molecular physiology. Many of the departmental faculty have co-authored scientific publications with each other. We also value integrity, humor, humility, respectful  engagement, community, and a growth mindset toward all endeavors. The department is located within the  Division of Life Sciences, part of the UCLA College of Letters and Science serving undergraduate and  graduate students. Thus, the search is particularly geared toward candidates that share our belief that, as  Professors at a top public university, we strive for excellence in teaching, service, research, as well as  promoting justice, equity, diversity and inclusion. The department is an exemplar in this regard. Interaction  with our colleagues in the David Geffen School of Medicine is seamless as we are all located within close  proximity on the Los Angeles campus. Applications should include statements of research interests in  sensory physiology, teaching philosophy, and a statement that addresses how their cultural, experiential,  and/or academic background contributes to promoting the strengths that are achieved by diverse  representation. In the cover letter, applicants should also address how their research will synergize with  existing research programs in the Department and within the broader UCLA campus community. The  successful candidate will be expected to establish an internationally recognized, externally funded research  program, in addition to participating in undergraduate and graduate teaching and mentoring. Undergraduate  teaching involves contributing to a team-taught upper division core physiology course. The successful  applicant will be supported by a community of scholars who are highly knowledgeable of evidenced-based  inclusive teaching practices. Junior faculty in the Department are also supported with multiple, well qualified mentors during their path to tenure.

UCLA is the #1 ranked public university in the USA, and California’s largest university, with an enrollment  of nearly 38,000 undergraduate and graduate students. The Biosciences at UCLA has more than 300 faculty  members, includes many top ten ranked departments, and is consistently in the top ten in NIH funding. As  a campus with a diverse student body, we encourage applications from women, minorities, and individuals  with a history of mentoring under-represented groups in the sciences.  

The University of California is committed to creating and maintaining a community dedicated to the  advancement, application, and transmission of knowledge and creative endeavors through academic  excellence, where all individuals who participate in University programs and activities can work and learn  together in a safe and secure environment, free of violence, harassment, bullying and other demeaning  behavior, discrimination, exploitation, or intimidation. With this commitment as well as a commitment to  addressing all forms of academic misconduct, UCLA conducts targeted employment reference checks for finalists to whom departments or other hiring units would like to extend formal offers of appointment into  Academic Senate faculty positions. The targeted employment reference checks involve contacting the  finalists’ current and prior places of employment to ask whether there have been substantiated findings of  misconduct that would violate the University’s Faculty Code of Conduct. To implement this process, UCLA  requires all applicants for Academic Senate faculty positions to complete, sign, and upload the form entitled  “Authorization to Release Information” into RECRUIT as part of their application. If the applicant does  not include the signed authorization to release information with the application materials, the application  will be considered incomplete. As with any incomplete application, the application will not receive further  consideration. Although all applicants for faculty recruitments must complete the entire application, only  finalists (i.e. those to whom the department or other hiring unit would like to extend a formal offer)  considered for Academic Senate faculty positions will be subject to targeted employment refence checks. 

The University of California is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer.
