FACULTY
Vollum Institute and Jungers Center
The Vollum Institute and the Jungers Center in association with the Department of Neurology announce faculty openings for outstanding scientists. For the Jungers search, we are interested in individuals whose work addresses neurological diseases, especially the fundamental causes and treatments of neural injury and neurodegeneration as well as mechanisms of neural repair and regeneration.

Applications will be considered at all levels. We offer attractive start-up packages and the opportunity to work in an outstanding scientific environment.
