Vanderbilt University: Assistant Professor tenure-track positions

[Carl Johnson]

Please see the attached advertisement for two Assistant Professor tenure-track positions at Vanderbilt. We are very interested in plant biologists whose research topics dovetail with other research interests within our department or in the larger Vanderbilt community. We have a state-of-the art greenhouse that is under-utilized and several walk-in growth chambers for growing plants. I hope you will apply or pass this advertisement to a junior colleague who might be interested.
Best wishes,
Carl Johnson
