About the Role
Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and the Division of Emergency Medicine in the Department of Pediatrics at the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania seek candidates for several Associate Professor positions in the non-tenure academic clinician track. Expertise is required in working within a large, complex medical system.

The distribution of clinical activity at CHOP and the designated affiliate is negotiable and tailored to the applicant’s interests, though significant time away from CHOP Main should be expected.
