Position Summary
The Department of Pediatrics at the Indiana University School of Medicine (IUSM) is seeking a physician-scientist to serve as an Assistant Professor, shared between the divisions of Pediatric Critical Care and Children's Health Services Research. This is a tenure track faculty position, and the full-time effort will be split equally between clinical care and research.
The Division of Pediatric Critical Care Medicine is integral part of Indiana's only quaternary care pediatric hospital, Riley Hospital for Children at Indiana University Health. The highly trained sub-specialists intensivists in this pediatrics specialty team are prepared to intervene at the most critical moment of a family's life journey, when their child's life hangs in the balance. Patients from across the state of Indiana are transported here for interventions, procedures and treatment that other hospitals are not equipped to perform. The Children's Hospital Association names Riley Hospital as having one of the highest acuity patient mixes in the United States.
Children's Health Services Research, one of the largest and most active pediatric research divisions of its kind in the country, is recognized nationally for its innovative work and research services it provides to pediatricians throughout the state of Indiana. As a national leader in health policy research, analysis, and advocacy, CHSR faculty conduct research in four priority areas, including informatics, implementation science, community engagement, and systems & policy analysis. The core faculty actively serve on committees that generate local and national health care guidelines and frequently present research evidence to legislators, stakeholders, and organizations such as American Academy of Pediatrics to determine health policy. Children's Health Services Research is also recognized internationally for leading-cutting edge research, contributing to policy decisions related to children and health care issues. The division currently consists of 17 faculty members across 8 pediatrics subspecialties and general pediatrics. Children's Health Services Research strives to improve the health of children, families, and communities by:
Conducting collaborative and inclusive health services research emphasizing Community Engagement, Informatics, Implementation Science, and Systems & Policy Analysis
Translating evidence into practice and policy through bi-directional engagement with local, national, and international partners
Fostering an inclusive culture of professional growth, mentorship, and impactful team science
Embedded in CHSR is the Pediatric Accelerator for Careers Engaged in Research (PACER) which was originally established by a grant from the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality. The purpose of PACER is to provide training and support for faculty who will engage in pediatrics focused health services research. Support within PACER includes mentorship, grant writing support, project management, and administrative oversight.
The Indiana University School of Medicine is comprised of 26 academic departments that cover basic science and clinical science areas of medicine. Faculty here enjoy a collaborative professional environment, where research scientists and clinical physicians at all stages of their career work together to address the world's most pressing health care challenges. The School offers a world-class medical education throughout nine statewide campuses that offer rural and urban settings that are consistently recognized for livability. With access to leading medical researchers, a large hospital network and top NIH funding in many areas of medicine, IUSM offers outstanding opportunities for career growth, development and continuous learning. For the fiscal year 2020, IUSM received approximately $408 million in sponsored programs funding ($197 million from NIH, $27 million from other federal sources). As of June 2020, there were 679 externally-funded primary investigators on the IUSM campus. IUSM currently hosts 14 research centers or program projects supported by PHS/NIH or other federal funds, as well as at least 19 supported by non-federal funds.

The Department of Pediatrics is based in the Riley Hospital for Children. It has 360 faculty members with a strong research program. Research is primarily conducted in the Herman B Wells Center for Pediatric Research and the Health Information and Translational Sciences Building, which are home to 58 Department of Pediatrics investigators (40 basic science investigators and 18 HSR/Human translational research/information science investigators). Pediatric faculty research programs have achieved national recognition and have an outstanding record for attaining peer-reviewed, external research funding totaling approximately $76 million in 2020, including funding from the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the National Cancer Institute (NCI), the American Heart Association, and the Department of Defense. In 2020, The Department of Pediatrics at IUSM has over $32.4 million in NIH funding ranking 6th among medical schools in the nation and 3rd among public institutions.
