The University of California, Los Angeles invites applications for a tenured faculty position in the Mary S.

We welcome candidates whose experience in teaching, research, or community service has prepared them to contribute to our commitment to diversity and excellence.  Candidates must have an established focus in patient-oriented research in neurodegenerative disease. The UCLA Easton Center welcomes applicants with expertise in precision medicine approaches including neuroimaging biomarkers, computational medicine and genetics, patient-derived stem cells, and novel methodologies in neuropathology.

The Mary S. Easton Center for Alzheimer’s Disease Research is a comprehensive center focused on Alzheimer’s and other neurodegenerative diseases. The Center encompasses outpatient clinics, neuropsychology services, basic and clinical science research projects and an extensive clinical trial program under an integrated organizational structure dedicated to excellent clinical care and developing a cure for Alzheimer’s and neurodegenerative diseases (http://www.adc.ucla.edu/). The Center, based in the Department of Neurology, has 23 faculty spanning several School of Medicine Departments and 18 staff. The Center has clinical and research sites at the Westwood UCLA campus, the West Los Angeles Veterans Administration Medical Center and the Olive View-UCLA Medical Center, capturing a large and diverse patient population.

The Department of Neurology at the DGSOM is internationally recognized in its pursuit of innovation, strategic growth and success. Founded by Augustus S. Rose, M.D. in 1951, the Department has grown to its current size with 106 faculty with primary appointments, 11 with secondary appointments, 4 active emeriti faculty, and 59 voluntary faculty throughout the local region. The department is integrated with seven affiliated hospitals including Harbor/UCLA Medical Center, Olive View/UCLA Medical Center, Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, the Greater Los Angeles Veterans Administration Medical Center, and Charles Drew University. These affiliations provide the ability to serve a diverse community throughout the region.

The Department is organized into disease-specific programs, including all of the major categories of neurological diseases. The department enjoyed a #1 ranking in NIH funding for nine consecutive years and currently is in the top tier nationally.

The Neurology residency training program is rated in the top 10 nationally and attracts applicants from the finest institutions in the nation.
