The American Museum of Natural History (AMNH) seeks an Assistant Curator in the area of Ancient Biomolecules. The successful candidate will be appointed in a tenure-track position as an Assistant Curator in one of four science Divisions (Anthropology, Invertebrate Zoology, Paleontology, or Vertebrate Zoology) and as an Assistant Professor in the Richard Gilder Graduate School at the AMNH. We seek a candidate with demonstrated high-impact research that involves generating molecular data from ancient or historical archival materials and collections. Candidates should exhibit a high level of scientific productivity and grantsmanship, and clear potential for future success in these areas. Research focus could be in any area related to ancient DNA, historical DNA, museomics, paleoproteomics, paleogenomics, and/or molecular signatures in ancient tissues. The research should integrate with the Museum’s focus on comparative biology and/or anthropology. Those whose research also helps grow natural history collections through fieldwork are encouraged to apply. The ideal candidate would have an interest in teaching and advising comparative biology graduate students and postdocs in the Museum’s Richard Gilder Graduate School.
