<b>Geobiology faculty search at Stanford University</b><br>
<br>
As part of an initiative in Geobiology, the School of Earth Sciences
at Stanford University seeks to make one or more tenure-line faculty
appointments of open rank (Assistant, Associate, or Full Professor)
in this area. We invite applications from persons with demonstrated
research records addressing fundamental questions at the
intersection of the biological and geological sciences who are also
committed to quality undergraduate and graduate teaching. The
objective of the Geobiology initiative is to advance fundamental
understanding of the co-evolution of Earth and life, with particular
focus on addressing the challenges that arise from the enormous
range of temporal and spatial scales involved. Areas of particular
interest include, but are not limited to, the study of the coupled
histories of Earth and life using data from paleontology,
geochemistry, and sedimentary geology; the evolution of
biogeochemical cycling; the role of life in shaping the geochemistry
of the Earth's crust over modern to geological time scales;
geochemical controls on biotic activity, diversity, and evolution;
biogenic mineral formation/dissolution; and life in extreme
environments. Applications should include a cover letter, curriculum
vita, a statement outlining research and teaching interests that
would materially contribute to related programs in the School of
Earth Sciences, three representative papers published within the
last 5 years and the names and email addresses of three referees.
Review of applications will commence August 1, 2013. The position
will remain open until filled. Stanford University has a strong
institutional commitment to the principle of diversity. In that
spirit, we particularly encourage applications from women, members
of ethnic minorities, and individuals with disabilities. For more
