The University of Michigan Department of Radiation Oncology invites applications for a board certified/eligible Radiation Oncologist at the rank of Clinical Assistant or Associate Professor to build an academic career. The disease site focus is Gynecologic Malignancies (GYN) including brachytherapy, with a secondary focus dependent on the candidate’s interest and department need. Potential sites include CNS, GU, and oligometastatic disease. There may be other disease sites that need support based on departmental needs.  The ideal candidate will display excellent interpersonal skills, excellence in patient care, and the ability to work successfully with a team. In addition to providing patient care, the faculty member will be expected to conduct research including clinical trials, publish, and teach medical students and residents. 

Responsibilities

 In addition to clinical practice, there will be opportunities for teaching and clinical services research. This position will have strong connections to and enjoy support and opportunities for collaborative work with University of Michigan faculty colleagues, particularly Gynecologic Oncology. The major criterion for appointment in the Clinician track is excellence in the overall mix of clinical care, clinical research, and teaching.   

We are interested in candidates with strong training in clinical radiation oncology and a track record of clinical research. The successful candidate is expected to engage in the University of Michigan’s tripartite mission of clinical care, education, and research.  Foundational to this is excellent clinical radiation oncology care, collaboration in a multi-disciplinary setting, and robust contribution to the University of Michigan GYN cancer care program that provides quaternary state-wide care.  The qualified candidate will be expected to engage in resident training through rotations and mentorship, as well as medical student teaching with opportunities for mentorship.  The candidate will be expected to participate in clinical research and will have opportunities to work with trainees and medical students on clinical research projects, as well as access to the University of Michigan Clinical Trials Office in order to open investigator-initiated trials.  Notably, the department has a 3T MR Simulator with unique clinical research opportunities for GYN. 

Experience in multi-modality treatment planning (e.g. PET, 4D CT, MRI) and image-guided brachytherapy, and interest in image guided radiotherapy (IGRT), stereotactic radiosurgery, and stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT), is strongly desired. As a faculty member of the University of Michigan Department of Radiation Oncology, the successful candidate will be an active participant in institutional tumor boards and departmental meetings.

Michigan Medicine is especially interested in qualified candidates who can contribute, through their research, teaching, and service, to the diversity and excellence of the academic community. Women, minorities, individuals with disabilities, and veterans are encouraged to apply. The University is also responsive to the needs of dual career couples.
