The University at Albany, SUNY, invites applications for a tenured position

and technology. Areas of interest
include, but are not limited to, the structure and function of RNA and
RNA-protein interactions.
The successful candidate will interact with a diverse group of research

Recently, the Institute of RNA Sciences and Technology (IRNAST) has been created
identifying this research theme as a focus of the University at Albany’s $100 million life sciences research initiative (for
more information see [http://www.albany.edu/lifesciences/].) In the greater Albany area, RNA research also has a strong presence in
institutions such as the Wadsworth Center, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Albany Medical College, and the Ordway Research Institute and thus, there
is outstanding potential for research collaborations. The successful candidate will be offered a
competitive start-up package and salary.
Qualifications: Candidates must qualify for a tenured
appointment at the time of application, and must have internationally
recognized, externally funded research programs in RNS sciences and
technology. All degrees must be from a college or university accredited by a
U.S. Department of Education or internationally recognized accrediting

responsibilities in the College of Arts and Sciences will be appropriate to the interests and funded research
level of the candidate. Applications
sent in PDF are preferable. Applicants
should submit a CV, list of past and current grant support, and statement of
research interests by e-mail to Lifesciences@albany.edu.

2007 and continue until
the position is filled.
