The Division of Hematology, Oncology and Stem Cell Transplantation and Regenerative Medicine in the  Department of Pediatrics at Stanford University seeks board certified/eligible applicants with substantial clinical expertise in pediatric hematopoietic stem cell transplantation to join the Division as Clinical Assistant Professor, Clinical Associate Professor, or Clinical Professor in the Clinician Educator line.

• The major criterion for appointment as Clinician Educators is excellence in the overall mix of clinical care, teaching, administrative leadership and/or scholarship appropriate to the programmatic need the individual is expected to fulfill.

Academic rank and line will be determined by the qualifications and experience of the successful candidate.

We are particularly interested in candidates with extensive experience managing medically complex pediatric stem cell transplant patients, including pre-transplant evaluation, peri-transplant care, and long-term post-transplant management, within a large, high-volume transplant program. The successful candidate will have demonstrated expertise in bringing patients safely and effectively to transplant and contributing to multidisciplinary care in a fast-paced, academically rigorous clinical environment.

We seek individuals with clinical expertise spanning both malignant and non-malignant disorders, and with experience in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, including alternative donor transplantation platforms. Our program is also deeply engaged in gene therapy and gene-modified cellular therapies, with a strong emphasis on early-phase and first-in-human (FIH) clinical trials.

The ideal candidate will also have a strong interest in, and experience with, clinical research in pediatric stem cell transplantation, including the design, conduct, and leadership of clinical trials. Experience participating in or leading multi-institutional clinical trials, investigator-initiated studies, and collaborative research efforts is highly desirable. Interest and experience in correlative science, immune   monitoring, and biomarker-driven clinical investigation across malignant and non-malignant indications are strongly encouraged.

Excellent opportunities exist for clinical research leadership and clinical program development within a rapidly expanding pediatric stem cell transplantation and regenerative medicine program. This recruitment supports an ongoing initiative in the Department of Pediatrics to expand the Division’s growing clinical, translational, and first-in-human research portfolio in pediatric stem cell transplantation and gene therapy.

The successful applicant will demonstrate a commitment to clinical excellence, program development, and the advancement of pediatric stem cell transplantation and gene therapy. A record or clear potential for collaborative scholarship, mentorship of trainees and junior faculty, and leadership within multidisciplinary teams is expected.

Applications will be accepted until the position is filled.

About Stanford University

Located between San Francisco and San Jose in the heart of Silicon Valley, Stanford University is recognized as one of the world's leading research and teaching institutions. Leland and Jane Stanford founded the University to "promote the public welfare by exercising an influence on behalf of humanity and civilization." Stanford opened its doors in 1891, and more than a century later, it remains dedicated to finding solutions to the great challenges of the day and to preparing students for leadership in a complex world. The University's thriving diverse community is comprised of nearly 7000 undergraduate students, 9000 graduate students, 2000 faculty members, 1900 postdoctoral scholars, and over 11,000 academic and administrative staff in seven schools including several interdisciplinary research centers and institutes. The campus spreads over 8000 contiguous acres and nearly all undergraduates live on campus. Stanford offers bachelor's and master's degrees in addition to doctoral degrees (PhD, MD, DMA and JD) plus a number of professional and continuing education programs and certifications.
