**Description**

This recruitment is an important component of the 'Precision Oncology and Clinical Excellence' focus that is a priority theme in the new Arthur Child Comprehensive Cancer Centre. The recruit would join a vibrant research community and contribute to progress through increasing activity in precision cancer diagnostics, the goal of discovering and testing novel diagnostic strategies, and would facilitate the increasingly sophisticated biological correlative studies that are expected to accompany the highest quality interventional, investigator-initiated clinical trials.

Experience in biomarker identification/quantification, image analysis, computational approaches to pathology diagnostics, or lab automation is required. The ability to instigate research projects, collaborate with laboratory physicians and clinicians in the translation and implementation of the aforementioned technologies, and direct a laboratory with equipment which enables such research is required.

Qualifications include a MD, eligibility for licensure in the Province of Alberta, and certification in Anatomic Pathology, Hematopathology, or General Pathology by the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada or Anatomic/Clinical Pathology by the American Board of Pathology. A PhD-trained Clinical Doctoral Scientist with licensure to practice in an associated field of laboratory medicine would also be eligible. An advanced degree with basic/translational research training and/or demonstrated commitment in areas related to cancer pathogenesis and disease mechanisms or other areas relevant to basic or translational research pathology with the ability to establish an independent or significant collaborative research program as demonstrated by a portfolio of scholarly work is preferred.

At the Assistant Professor level, peer reviewed publications with ideally first or senior author level contributions, other academic outputs, and potential to obtain extramural funding and establish a research program is expected. Applicants at the Associate Professor level must present evidence of an established, externally funded research program, and a strong publication record as evidenced by continuous productivity including as senior or first author. Applicants must show evidence of successful teaching and/or graduate supervision, and evidence of established academic engagement in professional and other communities.

The APL medical staff component of the position is a contractor position with APL. APL is a publicly funded wholly owned subsidiary corporation of Alberta Health Services (AHS) and is party to an affiliation agreement with the University of Calgary. APL performs over 30+ million tests annually providing laboratory tests for five acute care facilities in Calgary, one community laboratory and 9 rural health laboratories in Southern Alberta. APL pathologists must maintain the highest possible standards of practice including prompt delivery of services to match established performance indicators and turn-around times, must actively participate in such activities as quality assurance, quality control and quality improvement programs, and must actively participate in undergraduate, graduate, and postgraduate medical teaching.

The University of Calgary adheres to the principles of the San Francisco Declaration on Research Assessment (DORA) and strives to evaluate research impact responsibly and inclusively by explicitly considering discipline-appropriate methods for demonstrating the quality, significance, and societal impact of a broad range of research contributions.
