Dear colleagues,

Rice is looking to hire a bioethicist who would be actively involved in our
Medical Humanities program. Please share this posting widely. For more
information, see: https://apply.interfolio.com/91982<
https://urldefense.com/v3/https:/apply.interfolio.com/91982;!!GobTDDpD7A!YTKkIwV4cOIOe6kNBtTtt-0uOKQFFcAaqH1UKGLL4b274IosT3HX9w5eJXN1Kq8j-A$

The Philosophy Department at Rice University in Houston, Texas, invites
applications for a tenure-track or tenured position at the rank of
assistant or associate professor in biomedical ethics, broadly construed.
The successful candidate will have a strong record of research in
biomedical ethics, or related areas in moral or political philosophy or
philosophy of science, including philosophy of medicine, philosophy of
technology, philosophy of disability, bioethics and race, bioethics and
gender, and non-western or decolonial philosophies. The successful
candidate must also be a skilled participant within the larger medical
ethics and medical/health humanities community at and around Rice. They
will support the Medical Humanities program at Rice and our collaborative
relationships with the institutions of the Texas Medical Center. Assistant
and associate professors have a standard teaching load of two courses per
semester, at both the graduate and undergraduate levels, and the successful
candidate will teach in both Philosophy and in the Medical Humanities
program. We are especially interested in candidates committed to teaching a
diverse student body. The successful candidate will also perform research
in their specialized area and participate in university service through
committee work, advising or other duties.

Thank you and best wishes, Kirsten
