In addition to these specific areas, we will consider all candidates with interests in human health and disease who can make exceptional contributions to leadership in diversity, equity and inclusion and whose research interests fit within the broader subject areas encompassed by the participating departments.

Candidates will be expected to lead a vigorous externally funded research program, contribute to the intellectual vitality of the UC Santa Cruz scientific community, teach at the undergraduate and graduate levels, and provide
