About the role

Vanderbilt University invites applications for a tenure-track Assistant Professor in Biochemistry. The appointee is expected to establish a vigorous, externally funded research program and mentor graduate students and postdocs. We seek investigators addressing molecular biomedical problems with strengths in RNA/DNA biology, signaling, protein folding, structural/chemical biology, and computational biology. Strong collaborative environment and core facilities available.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
