The Dan L Duncan Comprehensive Cancer Center (DLDCCC) and the Department of Medicine at Baylor College of Medicine (BCM) in Houston, Texas, are recruiting clinician investigators specializing in Thoracic Oncology and Head & Neck Oncology to join our expanding programs at the Assistant/Associate/ Professor level.

The selected candidate will collaborate with highly trained faculty from other specialties to deliver multidisciplinary care at the recently opened O'Quinn Medical Tower, attend on the inpatient consult/teaching service at Baylor St. Luke's Medical Center, and conduct clinical trials through the DLDCCC's Clinical Trial Support unit and Phase 1 program. The candidate will also have ample opportunity to teach fellows, residents, and medical students in both inpatient and outpatient settings and mentor research projects.

The DLDCCC, and NCI-designated comprehensive cancer center is affiliated with Baylor St. Luke's Medical Center, Ben Taub Hospital, the Michael E DeBakey VA Medical Center, and Texas Children's Hospital. The O'Quinn Medical Tower is state-of-the-art 470,000 Sq Ft space which includes radiology services, radiation oncology, bronchoscopy/endoscopy, and an 80 bed infusion center that houses the DLDCCC's Phase 1 unit. The 450 members of the DLDCCC generate more than $130 million of annual direct costs in cancer-related research funding, including more than $44 million in direct costs from the NCI. Cancer Prevention and Research Institute of Texas (CPRIT) recruitment awards are available on a competitive basis. The DLDCCC is composed of 6 well-funded research programs and 10 Cancer-specific Disease Working Groups that bring basic scientists and clinical researchers together for collaborative translational research. Interested candidates will have an MD or MD/PhD degree and should be board-eligible or board-certified in medical oncology. Applications should include a letter outlining the candidate's academic interests, a curriculum vitae, and the names of four references.
