The Division of Infectious Diseases and Immunology (http://www.med.nyu.edu/medicine/id/) and the Department of Population Health (http://www.med.nyu.edu/pophealth/) at the NYU School of Medicine, are seeking investigators at the level of Assistant, Associate, or Full Professor with a focus on infectious diseases at the population or health systems level. Qualified candidates must have: an MD or PhD degree and a strong track record of research pertaining to infectious diseases that draws on methods from epidemiology, comparative effectiveness, decision science, modeling, and/or healthcare delivery science. For physician candidates, board certification or eligibility in infectious diseases is preferred.

Examples of areas of research focus for which strong collaborative opportunities exist include: 

• Elucidating the dynamics, risks, and impact of infectious diseases as well as prevention/treatment strategies at the population level using mathematical/computational modeling or informatics-based approaches. Experience in field data collection, multidisciplinary collaborations, and/or modeling to inform policy decisions is of particular interest. 
• Healthcare system strategies for effective and appropriate antibiotic utilization in inpatient and outpatient settings, and for hot spotting of hospital or community infections to mitigate transmission.
