Description
The Department of Physiology invites outstanding scientists with Ph.D., M.D., or equivalent degrees to apply for tenure-track faculty positions at the level of Assistant Professor. Exceptional candidates at the Associate Professor level will also be considered.

The scientific excellence of the candidates is more important than the specific area of research. These positions are part of the continuing growth of the Department at one of the country's leading academic medical centers. They will be supported by significant laboratory space, competitive salaries, state-of-the-art core facilities and exceptional start-up packages.
The University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center is the scientific home to six Nobel Prize laureates since 1985, 27 members of the National Academy of Sciences, and 22 members of the National Academy of Medicine, and 14 Howard Hughes Medical Institute Investigators. UT Southwestern conducts more than 5,800 research projects annually totaling more than $719 million. Additional information about the Department of Physiology can be found at
