Baylor College of Medicine and Texas Children's Hospital are significantly expanding their fundamental and translational biomedical research programs relevant to children's and women's health. As part of this expansion, they seek an outstanding physician-scientist, poised to become fully independent, with a background in neurogenetics, child neurology, and/or a related field.

The physician-scientist candidate should be eligible for licensure in Texas. The candidate must be a US citizen or non-citizen national or must have been lawfully admitted for permanent residence and possess verification of legal admission as a permanent US resident at the time of acceptance. Individuals on temporary or student visas are not eligible to apply.
