Michigan State University invites applications and seeks nominations for a John A. Hannah Professorship in Gene Regulation. The position is intended to complement a strong gene regulatory research presence at MSU, including structural, biochemical, genetic, and bioinformatic studies in animal, plant and microbial systems. The individual selected will bring innovative and multidisciplinary approaches to bear on central questions in gene regulation, including but not restricted to analysis of regulatory networks, structural analysis of higher order complexes, and dynamics of molecular complexes in live cells. It is anticipated that the candidate will contribute to the highly collaborative research atmosphere on campus and take a leadership role in enhancing training and research in the area of gene regulation.

This tenured research and teaching position comes with significant operating funds provided annually for program support. The primary appointment will be based in the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, with possible joint appointments in related departments.

The John A. Hannah Professorships were established in 1969, and are awarded to exceptional scholars to honor Hannah's 25 years as president of the University.
