The Department of Ag Botany & Plant Pathology invites applications for a full-time (1.00 FTE), 9-month, tenure track Assistant Professor position.

This position is for a tenure-track Assistant Professor in Population and Disease Dynamics of Cereal Pathogens in the Department of Botany & Plant Pathology. The incumbent will be expected to establish a robust and extramurally funded research program that will address the epidemiology and genetics of cereal diseases in agroecosystems and will apply this knowledge to inform breeding and disease management issues. Teaching associated with the position will contribute to the graduate and/or undergraduate curriculum in Botany and Plant Pathology, Biological Data Sciences, or related programs.
 

All research topics within the area of population and disease dynamics of cereal pathogens will be considered; however, preference will be given to candidates who show the greatest potential to

  1. combine field experiments and molecular/genomic data to address population-level research in fungal pathogens of wheat,
  2. work collaboratively as part of the Oregon State University Wheat Team, extension, growers, and/or stakeholders as part of interdisciplinary teams, and
  3. advance departmental goals in diversity, equity and inclusion.
