Description

The Department of Radiology in the School of Medicine at the University of Washington in Seattle is recruiting for one full-time (100% FTE) faculty position at the level of Assistant Professor, Associate Professor, or Professor without tenure (WOT) by reason of funding, commensurate with experience, to join the department with an anticipated start date of July 1, 2025.  Assistant Professors WOT are eligible for multi-year appointments that align with a 12-month service period (July 1-June 30).  Associate Professors WOT and full Professors WOT hold indefinite appointments that align with a 12-month service period (July 1-June 30). Faculty with 12-month service periods are paid for 11 months of service over a 12-month period (July-June), meaning the equivalent of one month is available for paid time off.

The successful candidate will be expected to provide excellent clinical care. Responsibilities include the performance and/or interpretation of fluoroscopic studies, ultrasound, CT, and MRI scans. All faculty members participate in multidisciplinary conferences, which offer an opportunity to develop academic collaborations and build a reputation with our colleagues.  Teaching and mentoring of medical students, residents and fellows is a large part of our Section’s mission and it is required from all our faculty members.

Scholarly or creative work is a fundamental part of our academic life. Depending on their expertise and on the level of interest in performing research, the successful candidate may join our clinician-teacher pathway or physician-scientist pathway. We expect faculty members in the clinician-teacher pathway to be advocates of our trainees and to develop and/or participate in education-related activities beyond daily read-out sessions, services and committees in our department, school of medicine, university, and/or in our major radiology societies. Faculty members in the physician-scientist pathway are expected to collaborate within and across departments and institutions working on multidisciplinary teams. Their goal is to become independent investigators in their area of interest, which may span from bench to implementation research.
