The Department of Molecular and Cellular Biology at the University of Guelph invites applications for a tenure-track position at the rank of Assistant Professor in the area of Immunology. We seek outstanding candidates whose research interests complement the department's strengths in immunological approaches such as immune cell signalling, immune cell interactions, immune response regulation, immune responses to pathogens, immunotherapy, or other relevant methods in immunology.
The successful applicant is expected to establish an innovative and sustainable research program that will integrate with and expand the department's research strengths and offer new avenues for collaboration.

The candidate would have access to shared immunological and cellular biology equipment, including flow cytometers, confocal and super-resolution microscopes, and in vivo imaging systems. Graduate student training activities are focused on M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in Molecular and Cellular Biology, but faculty members also participate in cross-department programs such as Immunology, Microbiology, Neuroscience, Plant Science, and Toxicology.
The successful candidate must also demonstrate the potential to provide effective and innovative teaching in the discipline of immunology to a diverse population of undergraduate and graduate students.
