The Department of Physics welcomes biophysicist Gaudenz Danuser to present the 38th annual Yunker Lecture. His talk explores the paradigm of “form follows function,” delving into the interplay between cell shape and molecular action that governs function, particularly in cancer cells, on Monday, October 9 in the Memorial Union Horizon Room. The talk, “Cell Shapes Keep Cells in Shape,” will begin at 5 p.m. with a light reception beforehand at 4 p.m. Danuser is the chair of the Lyda Hill Department of Bioinformatics and the director of the Cecil H. and Ida Green Center for Systems Biology at UT Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas, Texas. His research focuses on measuring and modeling non-genetic mechanisms of cancer metastasis and drug resistance. Making discoveries by computer vision of molecular and cellular mechanisms to enhance observation steers Danuser’s research. We hope to see you at this inspiring talk!

The Department of Chemistry at Oregon State University (OSU) seeks to fill one Tenure-Track faculty position starting in Fall 2024 at the rank of Assistant Professor in the areas of inorganic materials chemistry. We are seeking candidates who are interested in developing innovative inter- or trans-disciplinary research programs to revolutionize sustainable inorganic materials discovery for emerging applications in electronics, energy, and environment. Preference will be given to candidates who will focus on the discovery of next-generation materials for semiconductor industries by employing automated inorganic synthesis through solution-based routes, solid-state reactions, or thin-film deposition and who employ artificial intelligence/machine learning in their experimental research. The Department is home to a sophisticated, digitally enabled continuous flow synthesis system.

The proposed research program should demonstrate proficiency or significant potential to garner national and international recognition with sustainable external grants. The successful candidate is expected to teach courses in Inorganic Chemistry, Materials Chemistry, special topics, and general chemistry, broadly defined. The successful candidate is expected to fulfill working, teaching, and mentoring responsibilities in ways that provide equity and inclusivity for all students, faculty, and staff at OSU. Minimum qualifications include a Ph.D. in Chemistry or a related scientific field.

To review each job posting and apply, please submit a curriculum vitae, cover letter, teaching statement, research statement, and diversity statement online and arrange to have three letters of reference submitted online. For full consideration, applications should be received by October 31, 2023; however, the position will remain open until filled. Apply to posting # 144097 at https://jobs.oregonstate.edu/

The College of Science and the Department of Chemistry at OSU are committed to creating equitable and inclusive learning and working environments for their students, faculty, and staff. One of our primary foci is enhancing recruitment, retention, and success for first-generation, underrepresented racial and ethnic minority, and female students or postdoctoral fellows. In addition, several faculty-led initiatives and committees focus on diversity and inclusivity in the classroom and beyond. To meet these goals, we value involvement in professional societies committed to advancing URMs in STEM (e.g., SACNAS, Society for the Advancement of Chicanos/Hispanics and Native Americans in Science). OSU is an AA/EOE/Vets/Disabled. OSU commits to inclusive excellence by advancing equity and diversity in all that we do. We are an Affirmative Action/Equal Opportunity employer and particularly encourage applications from members of historically underrepresented racial/ethnic groups, women, individuals with disabilities, veterans, LGBTQ community members, and others who demonstrate the ability to help us achieve our vision of a diverse and inclusive community.

The Office of Undergraduate Research, Scholarship, & the Arts (Office of URSA) is excited to announce this year’s call for faculty summary submissions for the 2023-2024 URSA Engage Program, which is designed to provide first- and second-year students, and transfer students in their first year at OSU, opportunities to pursue research or a creative activity under the guidance of an OSU faculty mentor.    The  mentor  summary submission form can be found at this  link.    Below are the steps involved for the URSA Engage Program. More detailed information about eligibility and deadlines can be found on our website.   Faculty submit the mentor summary form by Sunday, October 15, 2023, at 11:59pm. The opportunities submitted by faculty will be posted on our website for students to view on October 16th.Students will read through mentor summaries and fill out a form that will be emailed to faculty mentors they are interested in working with.  Faculty and students will then discuss shared interests and whether they want to work together on a project. We encourage faculty to host networking hours to chat with students prior to allowing them to apply.  Faculty will ultimately decide which student(s) they will allow to move forward with an application to the URSA Engage Program. Students who have secured a mentor will then apply to the URSA Engage Program. The Office of URSA will evaluate student applications.   We appreciate your partnership and willingness to mentor students early in their careers at OSU!
