Organization Description: The Department of Population Health Sciences (DPHS) at Duke University School of Medicine invites applications and nominations for regular-rank faculty positions at the Assistant, Associate, or Full Professor level focused on CLIMATE AND HEALTH. DPHS consists of 52 primary faculty members, 57 scholars with secondary appointments, and 97 staff who conduct and support research and M.S. and Ph.D. programs preparing the next generation of professionals to explore multi-level factors impacting the health of populations. DPHS includes various research teams and resources, including the Center for Health Measurement (CHM), Duke PopHealth DataShare that provides access to numerous state and federal electronic health datasets and biostatistics support, Implementation Science Research Collaborative, Research to Eliminate Global Cancer Disparities (REGAL), Qualitative Core (QualCore), and Bellwether Collaborative for Health Justice. The Department has close collaborations with the Duke and Durham Veterans Affairs (VA) health systems, Duke clinical departments, and research centers across Duke and the Durham VA (e.g., Duke Aging Center, Duke Cancer Institute, Duke Clinical Research Institute, Duke Clinical and Translational Science Institute, Duke Global Health Institute, Margolis Center for Health Policy, VA Health Services Research & Development Center of Innovation, among others).

The goal of DPHS is to reduce health disparities, implement effective health innovations, measure true health needs and their relative value to patients, and link communities and healthcare systems. The faculty includes experts in bioethics, biostatistics, clinical decision sciences, epidemiology, health behavior, health economics, health informatics, health measurement, health policy, health psychology, health services research, health sociology, implementation science, public health, and qualitative research. We aspire to create a community built on collaboration, innovation, creativity, equity, and inclusivity of others without biases or prejudice of any kind. Our collective success depends on a robust exchange of ideas – an exchange that is best when the rich diversity of our perspectives, backgrounds, and experiences flourishes. To achieve this exchange, we are committed to diversity in the staff and faculty we hire, the policies we create, and the decisions we make.
