Dear colleagues, The Institute of Biosciences of the University of São Paulo (IB-USP) invites applications for one full-time faculty position at the rank of Professor Doutor (equivalent to Tenure TRack Assistant Professor) in the Department of Zoology (DZ). Bioinformatics and Phylogenomics are fundamental to advancing scientific research by integrating genomic data and computational tools to address complex scientific questions. This interdisciplinary field is essential for unraveling evolutionary relationships, understanding biodiversity, and exploring biological processes at a molecular level. In this context, the Department of Zoology (DZ) is seeking a highly qualified candidate with demonstrated expertise in this area. The selected candidate will be expected to contribute to original research, teaching, and outreach activities. This includes working collaboratively, fostering interdisciplinary initiatives within and outside the department, and actively pursuing research funding. The candidate is expected to strengthen current research lines, ensure the consistent quality of core undergraduate and graduate courses, propose new curricular offerings, and contribute to the formation of highly qualified human resources. This strategic hire aims to address a critical departmental need, reinforce the Institute's leadership, and strengthen the long-term commitment to academic excellence in the life sciences, particularly given the department's foundational role in systematics and phylogenetics.
