JOE - April 2012

The Yale School of Public Health (YSPH) and the Yale Cancer Center (YCC) seek to hire a scholar in cancer outcomes research at the level of Assistant or Associate Professor. Applicants with a research interest in quality of cancer care, comparative effectiveness of treatments and interventions across the cancer continuum, cost-effectiveness analysis of cancer care, and social and clinical factors that may affect cancer outcomes are especially encouraged to apply. The successful candidate can take advantage of a number of resources, including those available through the YCC (i.e., the Cancer Prevention and Control Research Program) (http://www.yalecancercenter.org/research/index.aspx), and other divisions at YSPH (http://medicine.yale.edu/ysph/about/index.aspx) including the divisions of Health Policy and Administration and Chronic Disease Epidemiology. The state of Connecticut has been a SEER region since 1973 and there is an opportunity to conduct statewide population-based cancer research. Applicants should have a Ph.D. or equivalent degree by the start of the appointment in epidemiology, health services research, health economics, or a related field, with a specialization in cancer. Also, applicants should have teaching experience, a record of research and scholarly accomplishments, and will be expected to develop an externally funded research program.

Review of applications will commence immediately and will continue until a successful candidate is identified.

Yale University is an affirmative action/equal opportunity employer. Yale values diversity in its faculty, students, and staff and especially welcomes applications from women and underrepresented minorities.

Applicants should submit an electronic copy of curriculum vitae, statement of research and teaching interests, three reprints, and three reference letters to:

Cary P. Gross, M.D., Search Committee Chair.
