Hey folks,
If you are/know of any graduating students / early-career researchers, I'm letting folks know that the branch campus of NYITCOM is currently looking to expand our anatomy faculty this year. The official advertisement is below. I will add that the Jonesboro location provides fairly quick access to universities in the neighbouring states (e.g., Mizzou, OSU, LSU), making collaboration pretty easy. On top of that, you will also be working with the paleo / anatomy faculty in New York. The faculty and staff are all very welcoming and encourage new research. This is a joint position with Arkansas State University, so you have the opportunity to work with med students and A-State students.
If there are any questions please contact the e-mail at the end of the job ad.
Jason
