The Institute is set to employ multidisciplinary approaches to study the mammalian brain. KBRI has two available categories for PIs: (senior) group leader (5 or more group members) and junior group leader (less than 4 group members). The successful candidates should hold either a PhD, MD, or MD/PhD associated to the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) and/or the medical fields. These positions will be appointed at a salary commensurate with individual qualifications that will be highly competitive any‘where‘ around the world. KBRI will be equipped with state-of-the-art research (core) facilities and will have an internal grants program. KBRI PIs will be able to apply for external funding globally and, in addition, seek joint appointment at various Korean research universities if the candidate is interested in teaching and mentoring students. South Korean nationals as well as foreign applicants are all encouraged to apply. Review of applications will begin 1 January 2013 and will remain open until all positions are filled. Please submit a cover letter, a curriculum vita (listing only published or accepted papers), a two-page research statement, (up to) three relevant reprints, research plan and a list of three (or more) references. The application cover letter should be addressed to the President of KBRI, Dr. Yoo-Hun Suh, MD/PhD. Please apply e-mail yhsuh@kbri.re.kr. The newly established Korea Brain Research Institute is located in Daegu, the third largest city in S. Korea with 2.5 million residents, which offers a unique opportunity to biomedical researchers as it has been designated to host the next generation medical facilities and hospitals by the Korean Government. KBRI‘‘s main research building will be located in the heart of Daegu, which has its own subway and well-established transit systems. The time distance via speed rail (KTX) between Daegu and Seoul (the largest city in Korea) is approximately 2 hours, which is identical to the time distance between New York City and Philadelphia. Please contact us if you have more question. Office : 82-70-4496-3289E-mail : changman@kbri.re.kr
