The Department of Diabetes Immunology within the Arthur Riggs Diabetes & Metabolism Research Institute (AR‑DMRI) at City of Hope has an opening for a tenure‑track associate or full professor. AR‑DMRI is a component of the Beckman Research Institute (BRI) at City of Hope. Our research depth in diabetes and cancer makes this institution unique, providing opportunities for scientific and clinical distinction and collaboration across disciplines, for example cross‑talk between diabetes immunologists, cancer immunologists, and beta cell biologists.
City of Hope is also home to the Wanek Family Project for Type 1 Diabetes, a philanthropic partnership designed to advance novel therapies for type 1 diabetes. The Wanek Family Project and a Department of Diabetes Immunology are directed by Alberto Pugliese, who joined City of Hope in October 2022. The Department has strong focus on human type 1 diabetes and translation.
We are looking to hire a Tenure‑Track Professor who has an interest in understanding islet autoimmunity and more broadly the disease pathogenesis at the preclinical and/or clinical levels and with the desire to translate promising insights into biomarkers, treatments and potential cures for type 1 diabetes.
