The Department of Pathology and Translational Pathobiology at LSU Health Shreveport is seeking to recruit a tenure-track faculty member at the Assistant, Associate, or Full Professor level to contribute to and expand its growing research enterprise in cancer biology. This position is part of a broader institutional effort to build interdisciplinary programs that connect cancer biology with cardiovascular disease, metabolism, and inflammation. The Department of Pathology and Translational Pathobiology is a major driver of research growth at LSU Health Shreveport and serves as a hub for interdisciplinary biomedical research across the institution. The department has demonstrated sustained expansion in both faculty and research programs and currently leads the institution in extramural funding. Faculty within the department maintain active, externally funded research programs spanning cardiovascular disease, inflammation, metabolism, and translational pathobiology. Candidates whose research aligns with or bridges these areas are particularly encouraged to apply, including those working in cardio-oncology, cancer-associated cardiotoxicity, cancer metabolism, immuno-oncology, or related fields that integrate cancer biology with cardiovascular or inflammatory mechanisms. LSU Health Shreveport offers a collaborative academic medical center environment with strong institutional investment in research infrastructure, faculty recruitment, and programmatic growth. The department has played a central role in recent institutional expansion efforts, including the development of new research space and the recruitment of a large cohort of research-active faculty. Investigators will benefit from extensive collaborative opportunities through major center-level programs led by Pathology faculty, including the NIH-funded CoBRE Center for Redox Biology and Cardiovascular Disease and the NSF EPSCoR CREST Center for Post-Transcriptional Regulation. These programs provide access to a robust and expanding set of shared resources, including cores for molecular signaling, analytical redox biology, genotyping, animal phenotyping, metabolomics, and iPSC-derived cell models. These integrated resources support a wide range of mechanistic and translational research approaches and are designed to accelerate the development of competitive, extramurally funded programs. Candidates will also have opportunities to engage with the Feist-Weiller Cancer Center, which provides an integrated environment for cancer research, clinical care, and education. The center supports cancer-focused research through pilot funding, shared resources, and access to clinical collaborations and patient populations, enhancing the translational potential of faculty research programs. The successful candidate will be expected to establish or maintain an independent, extramurally funded research program and to contribute to the department's educational mission through mentorship of graduate students and postdoctoral fellows. Teaching and service responsibilities are aligned with the academic mission and structured to support research productivity.
