NB: The hiring season for European jobs tends to run later than the North American market, so that jobs posted in late Spring and Summer might still have start dates in the following Autumn; new jobs are still being posted there [June 2012].
Most of these pages still need to be created. AFII 09:49, May 24, 2012 (UTC)

Open-Rank Position in the History of the Modern Life Sciences (c. 1850 to present)The Department of History at the University of Missouri, Columbia, is seeking to fill an open-rank, tenured/tenure-track position in the history of the modern life sciences (i.e., from c. 1850 to the present) within any sub-field. Applicants must have a degree in History, History of Science, or a closely allied discipline. Whoever fills this position will be a full-time member of the History Department and will also be affiliated with the Christopher S. Bond Life Sciences Center as a resident historian. We are seeking candidates with a compelling research agenda and a strong commitment to building networks among disciplines. Existing initiatives in which s/he could participate include a science studies research group, an evolutionary studies research group, and a teaching certificate in the Life Sciences & Society Program. S/he is also expected to develop innovative projects along interdisciplinary lines. As a result, the normal 2-2 course-load in the History Department will be reduced by one. Two courses are open to his/her discretion. The third will be an annual historical survey of the modern life sciences that addresses social and cultural implications.
Please submit letter of application describing research and teaching interests, and c.v. online at http://hrs.missouri.edu/find-a-job/academic.
