for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content. Must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, no invented or summarized away detail. Remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, etc. Also remove application instructions. So we need to extract content and map to sections.
Let's parse the posting:
- University of Pennsylvania: School of Veterinary Medicine: School of Veterinary Medicine - Clinical Sciences and Advanced Medicine Location Philadelphia Open Date Jul 30, 2026

The position includes clinical service and teaching in a busy university teaching hospital; as well as, scholarly activity. Clinical service responsibilities will include provision of patient care and supervision of day-to-day operations of the Internal Medicine service. Teaching responsibilities will include small group and didactic instruction of veterinary students rotating through the service and mentoring of internal medicine residents. In addition, faculty will participate in classroom/laboratory teaching. A requirement of the Clinician Educator track is development of a scholarly research program that advances the field of internal medicine. Opportunities for collaborative research and clinical endeavors are abundant within the Veterinary School as well as with the nearby School of Medicine. The Department offers junior rank faculty mentoring through a specifically appointed mentoring committee as well as competitive internal funding for pilot research projects. The Section of Medicine employs eight (7 ACVIM-Small Animal Internal Medicine, 1 ECVIM-Small Animal Internal Medicine) board-certified internists in support of the program. There are currently 12 residents enrolled in the residency-training program. More than 30 Diplomates of various American and European certifying Colleges directly support the Internal Medicine program. This position is part of the School’s Standing Faculty. It is a non-tenured position, with reappointment every three years and promotion required by year nine. Salary will be commensurate with experience. Full University benefits including vacation time, health, dental, vision, retirement, and eligible tuition reimbursement for self, spouse, and or dependents accompany the position. The anticipated start date, although negotiable, is July 2026. The hospital is a dynamic and intellectually stimulating environment with excellent nursing staff, interns, and residents. The School is located amid a vibrant urban neighborhood that offers an abundance of cultural resources including music, art, theatres, and fine dining (www.upenn.edu/life-at-penn/philadelphia). The University of Pennsylvania is a qualifying employer for the federal Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) Program.
Qualifications: Candidates must have a veterinary degree and either be a Diplomate of the American or European College of Veterinary Internal Medicine, Specialty of Small Animal Internal Medicine, or have successfully completed an internal medicine residency program at an accredited university. Board-certification would need to be achieved within 24 months of employment.
Application Instructions: ... (to be removed)
We need sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We need to decide which sections have content.
- About the role: Could be description of position, overview. We have description paragraph about position. So we can put that under About the role.
- Responsibilities: Clinical service responsibilities, teaching responsibilities, etc. We have details: clinical service responsibilities (patient care, supervision of day-to-day operations), teaching responsibilities (small group and didactic instruction, mentoring residents, classroom/laboratory teaching), also scholarly activity, professional development, citizenship, etc. So we can list responsibilities as bullet list.
- Requirements: Might include things like veterinary degree, board certification within 24 months, etc. But we also have Qualifications section. The spec says we have separate Requirements and Qualifications sections. Usually Requirements could be mandatory items; Qualifications could be preferred? But we need to follow instruction: include a section only when posting has real specific content for it. We have both Requirements and Qualifications content. The posting has "Qualifications" heading with specifics. It also mentions requirements like veterinary degree, board certification within 24 months, etc. That could go under Requirements. However the posting also says "Candidates must have a veterinary degree and either be a Diplomate ... or have successfully completed an internal medicine residency program..." That's a requirement. Also "Board-certification would need to be achieved within 24 months of employment." That's also a requirement. So we can put those under Requirements.
- Qualifications: Might be things like history of or potential as exemplary clinician educator, researcher, academic leader, demonstrated excellence in clinical service and teaching, record/potential to develop scholarly research program, etc. That's more like qualifications. So we can put those under Qualifications.
- Skills: Not explicitly listed. Could infer but we should not invent. So we omit Skills section.
- Benefits: The posting mentions "Full University benefits including vacation time, health, dental, vision, retirement, and eligible tuition reimbursement for self, spouse, and or dependents accompany the position." Also mentions PSLF program. So we have benefits content. So include Benefits section.
- Pay: The posting says "Salary will be commensurate with experience." That's vague, not specific. The instruction says: never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Since Pay is only "commensurate with experience", which is placeholder, we should NOT include Pay section.
- Schedule: The posting mentions "Sixty (60%) of the candidate’s time will be dedicated to clinical service and teaching..." and "Time outside of clinical service is used for scholarly activity, professional development, citizenship to the Department, and didactic teaching." Also anticipated start date July 2026. That's more about time allocation, not schedule like hours per week. Could we consider that as Schedule? The instruction says only include Schedule if posting actually states them. It does state time allocation (60% clinical service and teaching). That's somewhat schedule. But is that considered schedule? Might be considered "Schedule" as time distribution. However the instruction says avoid filler like "not specified". This is specific: 60% time dedicated to clinical service and teaching. So we could include Schedule section with that detail. Also anticipated start date July 2026 could be included. However start date might be more about "Schedule"? Could be considered under Schedule. But we need to decide.
Better to include Schedule section with bullet points: 60% time dedicated to clinical service and teaching at Matthew J. Ryan Veterinary Hospital; remaining time for scholarly activity, professional development, department citizenship, didactic teaching; anticipated start date July 2026 (negotiable). That seems specific.
But we need to check if we already used that info in Responsibilities or About the role. We can still include it in Schedule as separate section. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. But we can still include if substantive.
We have About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Benefits, Schedule. That's six sections. Pay omitted, Skills omitted.
Now we need to format: Use for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose.
We need to preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. So we must keep details like numbers, percentages, names, etc.
We must not include boilerplate like cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions.
We must not repeat job title as heading. The job title is "Assistant or Associate Professor level in Small Animal Internal Medicine in the Clinician Educator (CE) track." We should not put that as heading.
We must not put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings.
Now craft HTML.
We'll start with
About the role
then ... content.
What content for About the role? Could be the introductory description: The University of Pennsylvania, School of Veterinary Medicine, Department of Clinical Sciences and Advanced Medicine, invites applications for a faculty position at the Assistant or Associate Professor level in Small Animal Internal Medicine in the Clinician Educator (CE) track. The successful candidate is expected to have history of or potential as an exemplary clinician educator, researcher and academic leader in their field and possess demonstrated excellence in clinical service and teaching, as well as a record of or potential to develop a scholarly research program that advances the field. The CE faculty member is expected to contribute to their field through scholarship that brings new knowledge and advances their field. Members of the faculty in the CE track in Internal Medicine provide patient care; Sixty (60%) of the candidate’s time will be dedicated to clinical service and teaching in the Matthew J. Ryan Veterinary Hospital. Time outside of clinical service is used for scholarly activity, professional development, citizenship to the Department, and didactic teaching. The position includes clinical service and teaching in a busy university teaching hospital; as well as, scholarly activity.
But note that some of that overlaps with Responsibilities. However we can keep About the role as overview, and Responsibilities as specific duties.
We must not duplicate content? The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. It doesn't forbid duplication, but better to avoid redundancy. However we can split.
Let's extract distinct pieces:
About the role overview: invitation to apply, position level, track, expectations (exemplary clinician educator, researcher, academic leader, excellence in clinical service and teaching, record/potential to develop scholarly research program, contribute via scholarship). Also mention that CE faculty member expected to contribute via scholarship bringing new knowledge. Also mention that members provide patient care; 60% time dedicated to clinical service and teaching; time outside used for scholarly activity, professional development, citizenship, didactic teaching; position includes clinical service and teaching in busy university teaching hospital; as well as scholarly activity.
Responsibilities: Clinical service responsibilities: provision of patient care and supervision of day-to-day operations of the Internal Medicine service. Teaching responsibilities: small group and didactic instruction of veterinary students rotating through the service and mentoring of internal medicine residents. In addition, faculty will participate in classroom/laboratory teaching. Also maybe mention scholarly activity, professional development, citizenship, etc. But those could be considered responsibilities as well. However we already mentioned time allocation in About the role. To avoid duplication, we can keep responsibilities focused on specific duties: patient care, supervision, teaching (small group, didactic, mentoring residents), classroom/laboratory teaching. Also maybe mention participation in scholarly activity? But that's more expectation.
We'll decide.
Requirements: veterinary degree; either be a Diplomate of American or European College of Veterinary Internal Medicine, Specialty of Small Animal Internal Medicine, or have successfully completed an internal medicine residency program at an accredited university; board-certification must be achieved within 24 months of employment.
Qualifications: history of or potential as an exemplary clinician educator, researcher and academic leader; demonstrated excellence in clinical service and teaching; record of or potential to develop a scholarly research program that advances the field; contribution to field through scholarship that brings new knowledge and advances field; opportunities for collaborative research and clinical endeavors abundant within
