Director of Neuroscience at The University of Texas at Austin
The University of Texas at Austin invites applications and nominations for 
Director of its Institute of Neuroscience, an interdisciplinary organized 
research unit and graduate program.  The University has recently made major 
commitments to the development of Neuroscience.  A recent reorganization of 
biological sciences departments resulted in the formation of a new unit of 
Neurobiology in the College of Natural Sciences in 1999.  Since its 
inception, Neurobiology has added 8 new faculty and is expected to continue 
to grow rapidly.  In addition, the University administration and 
participating colleges have committed 12 new faculty lines in neuroscience 
and new funding for graduate student and program support.  Institute 
faculty have academic appointments in a number of sections/departments 
including neurobiology, psychology, pharmacology, molecular genetics and 
microbiology, and the successful candidate would be expected to hold an 
appointment of professor in one or more of these units.  For more 
information about the Institute, see 
http://www.utexas.edu/neuroscience.  The successful candidate for Director 
of the Institute will play a pivotal role in furthering the Institute's 
mission of promoting interdisciplinary studies and graduate training in 
neuroscience and will be expected to work with participating units in the 
recruitment of additional new faculty.  He or she must have a doctoral 
degree and a demonstrated record of accomplishment in neuroscience research 
and in administration.  The position is available 1 September 2003, or as 
negotiated.  Review of applications will begin immediately and will 
continue until the position is filled.  Please submit a letter of interest, 
statement of experience, curriculum vitae, and names of three references 
(including address, phone, and e-mail) to Professor Wilson Geisler, 
Chairman, INS Director Search Committee, Department of Psychology, 108 E. 
Dean Keeton St., University of Texas, Austin, Texas 78712.
