MAJOR RECRUITMENT DRIVE FOR HEMATOLOGY AND HEMATOLOGIC MALIGNANCIES FACULTY
Hematology is uniquely interconnected with virtually every area of medicine. Hematologic malignancies include some of the most effectively treatable—and sometimes curable—cancers, while also encompassing some of the most challenging and debilitating diseases. Recognizing the central role of hematology in medical science, the University of Utah is committed to fostering interdisciplinary collaboration to drive innovation and discovery in this critical field.
In a strategic partnership, the Huntsman Cancer Institute and the Department of Internal Medicine have joined forces to recruit outstanding faculty dedicated to the study of blood diseases, including both malignant and classical hematologic disorders. We are actively seeking candidates for faculty positions at the assistant professor, associate professor, and professor levels. Ideal candidates will have an MD, MD/PhD, or PhD with a strong commitment to advancing clinical-translational research. We are particularly interested in individuals with a track record of innovation and scientific productivity, supported by extramural funding.
Recruited faculty will receive generous start-up packages with ample resources to ensure the successful development of their research programs. Academic appointments will typically be housed within the Department of Internal Medicine, Division of Hematology & Hematologic Malignancies, providing an environment rich in collaboration, scientific excellence, and translational impact.
This is an exciting opportunity to join a thriving research community dedicated to advancing the understanding and treatment of hematologic diseases.
Our vision is to leverage the power of transdisciplinary collaboration, data integration, and translational research to advance clinical practice, science and education in Hematology and Hematologic Malignancies.
The University of Utah, as the state’s flagship academic institution, offers a comprehensive educational experience to an increasingly diverse student body. Rooted in a pioneering spirit and a deep appreciation for collaboration, the University has made outsized contributions to medicine and biomedical sciences through its commitment to research and discovery.
The Huntsman Cancer Institute (HCI)—an NCI-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center and the only facility of its kind in the Mountain West—serves as a vital hub for cancer treatment and research. As the region’s premier tertiary care center, HCI provides specialized care to a rapidly growing population across a vast geographic area.
The Division of Hematology and Hematologic Malignancies is home to nearly 40 faculty members with diverse scientific and clinical expertise. Over the past several years, the Division has experienced significant growth in both clinical activity and extramural funding, reflecting its dynamic and expanding impact. Committed to the core values of excellence, respect, and integrity, the Division fosters a culture of collaboration and scientific inquiry. Candidates with a passion for innovation and discourse will find an intellectually rich and supportive environment within our program.
