The Department of Pathology at the University of California, San Diego (http://pathology.ucsd.edu) is committed to academic excellence within the faculty, staff, and student body, and seeks Academic Chemical Pathologists (physicians or physician-scientists) to join the Division of Laboratory and Genomic Medicine. The candidates will serve as Associate Directors of the Clinical Chemistry Laboratories at UC San Diego Health's Center for Advanced Laboratory Medicine (CALM) and Jacobs Medical Center in La Jolla, and at the UC San Diego Medical Center in Hillcrest. UC San Diego is an internationally recognized leader and center of excellence in laboratory automation/robotics, clinical mass spectrometry, immunoassay development, and genomic/precision medicine. The positions involve a broad range of rotating clinical, administrative, and on-call responsibilities shared with a dedicated team of other qualified MD, MD/PhD, and PhD faculty. Primary service coverage includes providing physician interpretations of diagnostic tests and pathology clinical consultations with written report sign-outs, as well as medical and technical supervision of laboratory operations across all UC San Diego Health laboratory sites. Other duties encompass assisting the section directors with quality and regulatory management, new test development and innovation, analytical instrument/method validations, procedural oversight, and performance improvement initiatives. The positions also involve the teaching of medical students, residents, and fellows, including active participation in our ComACC-accredited clinical chemistry training program, clinical case conferences/call reviews, and journal clubs. This academically-rich environment also offers exceptional opportunities for translational, developmental, and clinical research collaborations with leading investigators at UC San Diego, several nearby affiliated biomedical institutions, and biotechnology/IVD partners.
