The Department of Pediatrics at the University of Washington is hiring for an Associate Professor or Professor (without tenure by reason of funding) appointment on the Faculty-Scientist track to join the Division of Adolescent Medicine and the Seattle Children’s Research Institute (SCRI) Center for Child Health, Behavior, and Development. This position will be expected to establish a research focus and to mentor and collaborate within the Division and the Department of Pediatrics. The anticipated start date is July 1, 2024.
The successful applicant will join a well-established division of thirteen Adolescent Medicine faculty members and a multidisciplinary team of over fifty staff and faculty.

Particular strengths of the Division include an outstanding fellowship program, a Maternal and Child Health Bureau-funded Leadership Education in Adolescent Health (LEAH) training, and an active research program.
Associate and full Professors hold indefinite appointments that align with a 12-month service period (July 1-June 30).
