Transplant Pulmonology - Academic Physician

Primary Responsibilities

This academic track faculty member will devote at least 85% effort (90% or 95% for Clinician Track) to providing high quality clinical care in order to fill a faculty position at the rank of Assistant Professor or above (in the Academic Track or Clinician Scholar track). The remaining effort will be dedicated to education and collaborative research activities with the expectation of demonstrated accomplishments consistent with promotion in the academic track (an average of at least one publication per year, for example).

The clinical effort predominantly will be at the University of Minnesota Medical Center and Clinics and Surgery and Center, and University of Minnesota’s East Bank Hospital. The faculty will participate actively and contribute to PACCS Division and Department of Medicine academic and clinical programs.

Those with a primary clinical focus and particular interest in lung transplantation are encouraged to apply.
