Full time Assistant, Associate, or Full Professor faculty position in Neurosurgery at UCLA

The Department of Neurosurgery at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA is seeking a neurosurgeon with focus and expertise in spinal surgery. Candidates should have completed a neurosurgery residency program, as well as a formal post-residency complex spine surgery fellowship. Candidates will be expected to develop an active academic program with high-caliber research and to maintain a high- volume clinical practice.

Candidates must be ABNS board certified or board eligible in neurosurgery and should have a proven record of accomplishment in academically oriented activities with a commitment to teaching and research. In addition, the candidate must have or be eligible for a California medical license. Compensation and academic title will be commensurate with experience.

The posted UC salary set the minimum pay determined by rank and step at appointment. See Table 5 scales https://www.ucop.edu/academic-personnel-programs/_files/2024-25/oct-2024-scales/t5-8.pdf. The salary range for this position is $173,000 - $457,200. This position includes membership in the health sciences compensation plan (https://www.ucop.edu/academic-personnel-programs/_files/apm/apm-670.pdf), which provides for eligibility for additional compensation beyond this base salary.

The University of California seeks to recruit and retain a diverse workforce as a reflection of our commitment to serve the people of California, to maintain the excellence of the University, and to offer our students richly varied disciplines, perspectives and ways of knowing and learning.

Interested applicants must submit their application materials online at https://recruit.apo.ucla.edu/JPF10565

The shared values of the DGSOM are expressed in the Cultural North Star, which was developed by members of our community and affirms our unswerving commitment to doing what's right, making things better, and being kind. These are the standards to which we hold ourselves, and one another. Please read more about this important DGSOM program at: https://medschool.ucla.edu/cultural-north-star.

All aspects of searches are confidential and all candidates are expected to review and abide by UC Regents Policy 1111 on Statement on Ethical Values and Standards of Conduct https://regents.universityofcalifornia.edu/governance/policies/1111.html.

The University of California is committed to creating and maintaining a community dedicated to the advancement, application, and transmission of knowledge and creative endeavors through academic excellence, where all individuals who participate in University programs and activities can work and learn together in a safe and secure environment, free of violence, harassment, bullying and other demeaning behavior, discrimination, exploitation, or intimidation. With this commitment as well as a commitment to addressing all forms of academic misconduct, UCLA conducts targeted employment reference checks for finalists to whom departments or other hiring units would like to extend formal offers of appointment into Academic Senate faculty positions. The targeted employment reference checks involve contacting the finalists' current and prior places of employment to ask whether there have been substantiated findings of misconduct that would violate the University's Faculty Code of Conduct. To implement this process, UCLA requires all applicants for Academic Senate faculty positions to complete, sign, and upload the form entitled "Authorization to Release Information" into RECRUIT as part of their application. If the applicant does not include the signed authorization to release information with the application materials, the application will be considered incomplete. As with any incomplete application, the application will not receive further consideration. Although all applicants for faculty recruitments must complete the entire application, only finalists (i.e., those to whom the department or other hiring unit would like to extend a formal offer) considered for Academic Senate faculty positions will be subject to targeted employment reference checks.
