Job Description

The Duke Department of Pediatrics invites applications for a full-time faculty position within the Division of Pediatric Hematology/Oncology. Ideal candidates will have particular expertise and interest in the diagnosis and management of children with a variety of classical blood disorders. Individuals at all academic levels will be considered, and those with leadership experience related to quality improvement activities, clinical program development, and/or post-graduate medical education will be prioritized. Professional activities will principally focus on providing care to children with blood diseases on inpatient and outpatient settings, and as a member of the faculty, clinical care will be closely aligned to the educational and research missions of the Division.

The selected candidate will have a primary appointment in the Department of Pediatrics Division of Hematology/Oncology, which embraces the missions of providing exceptional clinical care in inpatient and outpatient settings; facilitating growth and advancement across the spectrum from undergraduate students, graduate and medical students, clinical fellows, and junior faculty; and pursuing clinical, translational, and laboratory-based research focused on improving outcomes for children with cancer and classical blood disorders. The Division currently includes 16 full-time faculty physicians, 4 advanced practice providers, 12 clinical and laboratory research staff members, and additional staff members to provide social work, child psychology, child-life, and care coordination expertise.

Current strengths in classical hematology include a Comprehensive Center for Sickle Cell Disease, supported by funding from the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services to help enable our care of approximately 300 patients into adulthood; a robust Hemostasis and Thrombosis Program and a new clinical program focused on Young Women with Blood Disorders; and opportunities to engage in hematology-focused state and national research consortia.

The selected candidate will join a vibrant university and academic medical center community in which our division intersects seamlessly with other important centers and institutes, including the Duke Clinical Research Institute and the Duke Global Health Institute, all of which are nestled in the heart of the Duke University campus. This creates a remarkably collaborative and fertile environment for professional growth and innovation, changing how pediatric care is delivered on and far beyond our campus.
