Job Description

The Department of Pathology & Anatomical Sciences of the University of Missouri is seeking an additional forensic pathologist / autopsy pathologist to join the faculty.

This position is for an Assistant / Associate / Full Professor in our non-tenure clinical track and would be considered for the Chief Medical Examiner position.

The Department operates the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner of Boone and Callaway Counties by contract with those counties, contracts for ME services with at least two other counties and the State Correctional Facilities system and provides forensic autopsy services to Coroners of other counties on a case-by-case basis.

The Office has annually performed between 500-525 autopsies for a considerable number of years. The new pathologist will join the other experienced forensic pathologist (along with an additional part-time forensic pathologist) to divide this workload as well as sharing coverage of up to about 70 hospital autopsies per year.

This sharing of workload will permit time for research, teaching, publications, and other scholarly work, including collaborations with members of other departments and other schools on the larger MU campus.

The Department has an ACGME-accredited 12-person residency and residents and the 3 to 4 Post-Sophomore Fellows are extensively involved in the hospital autopsy service and the forensic service.

Additionally, by working in a university setting there is library access, access to neuropathology, pediatric pathology, geneticists, clinical microbiologist, and cardiac pathologist.

The successful applicant will have trained in Anatomic Pathology and done a Forensic Pathology Fellowship; training in Clinical Pathology is preferable but not required.

Board certification in at least AP and FP, or eligibility for such certification, is required.

Employees of the University of Missouri and University of Missouri Healthcare are eligible for the Public Student Loan Forgiveness Program.
