Search for the Associate Director of Population Sciences
The Fred & Pamela Buffett Cancer Center (FPBCC) at the University of Nebraska Medical Center (UNMC) seeks an ambitious, dynamic leader to serve as its inaugural Associate Director of Population Sciences (ADPS). As the only NCI-designated cancer center in Nebraska, the FPBCC places scientists and clinicians in collaborative spaces, providing an unparalleled opportunity for researchers to impact the future of cancer prevention and treatment.
Working in collaboration with stakeholders across the university and local and regional community leaders, the ADPS will identify and develop a translatable cancer prevention research strategy that improves the health of Nebraskans, built upon a thorough analysis of their health needs and challenges.
Reporting to the Director of the Cancer Center, the ADPS will develop a comprehensive vision for population-based research in cancer, expanding upon the FPBCC's strengths to best serve the diverse patient population in its catchment area. The ADPS will nurture relationships across the Fred and Pamela Buffett Cancer Center, UNMC, and Nebraska Medicine, while strengthening connections within the community to facilitate cross-disciplinary research in cancer population sciences throughout the Fred and Pamela Buffett Cancer Center, the University of Nebraska system, and the State of Nebraska.
The inaugural ADPS will bring a track record of federally funded population-based cancer research and a collaborative leadership style. As a coalition builder, the ADPS will have experience in energizing a coalition of investigators and in attracting, mentoring, and supporting a team of top talent researchers.
