The Center for Bioethics and Humanities at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus is seeking an outstanding early‑career scholar for a full‑time, tenure‑eligible Assistant Professor position. We are especially interested in candidates whose research focuses on ethical, legal, or policy dimensions of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in healthcare, though applicants working in other areas of bioethics are also strongly encouraged to apply. The successful candidate will develop an independent, empirically grounded research program, pursue extramural funding, and collaborate with a vibrant, interdisciplinary community of investigators across the CU Anschutz campus. The Center offers a highly supportive environment for junior faculty, including strong mentorship, exceptional research staff, and opportunities for interdisciplinary collaboration. This position includes the potential for a hybrid work schedule and a competitive start‑up package designed to support the successful launch of a funded research career in bioethics.
