Precision Medicine and Population Health — Associate or Full Professor
Log #19-110
The School of Public Health is seeking a tenure-track faculty member to join its core faculty as a scholar to lead its new initiative in Precision Medicine and Public Health. Precision medicine has been with us for many years, mostly in the form of drugs and devices that can be used for curative and restorative purposes. The advances of the past few years has pushed precision medicine beyond the general and into the realm of specific treatments for individuals, based on the genetic makeup of both host and disease. Much of the attention has been devoted to the biogenetic process, less to the social, demographic, and economic aspects that will ultimately determine the pathway for precision medicine in society. An interdisciplinary group at Georgia State (public health, law, molecular genetics, economics) wishes to pursue a broad agenda that will encompass laboratory science, population health, health disparities and inequalities, the legal and ethical foundation for genetic therapies, and the economic implications of such treatments. We seek a scholar in any of those fields who will be in a position to lead combined efforts in all of them.
