Duke’s Department of Dermatology (https://dermatology.duke.edu/) was established as an independent department in 2009. It has a tradition of cutting-edge clinical care, nationally recognized programs in graduate medical education, and innovative research. The Department has a robust clinical and basic research program with strengths in immunology and cancer biology. Clinically, the Department has faculty who are national and world leaders in cutaneous oncology, pediatric dermatology and immunology. Approximately 30 clinical and research faculty members, and 16 fellows and residents comprise the department.
Interested individuals should submit a statement of interest and a Curriculum Vitae to Paige Smith via email at paige.smith@duke.edu by March 15, 2019.
Candidates should have an MD degree, academic credentials that qualify for appointment at the level of full Professor, and be eligible for a license to practice medicine in North Carolina. Duke University School of Medicine and Health System are very interested in a diverse candidate pool and would be particularly interested in women and those from other groups underrepresented in medicine.
