The Research Institute on Addictions (RIA), a national leader in addictions research, anticipates funding for one or more State of New York permanent Research Scientist positions. Candidates must have a doctoral degree in epidemiology, health sciences, psychology, sociology, economics, or other relevant field and a minimum of 1-2 years of postdoctoral research experience. We are particularly interested in applicants who can expand our research portfolio with expertise in Health Services/Health Economics, Tobacco/Nicotine Use, Prescription Drug Abuse, or Disorders of Appetite (Obesity). Experience as Principal Investigator on externally-funded research projects or prior grant funding is highly desirable.
The successful candidate is expected to obtain funding in areas of addiction research which answer important scientific questions. This is a research-focused position with no teaching and minimal administrative responsibility. Positions are subject to New York State Civil Service regulations. Salary and fringe benefits are competitive. RIA is a research center within the State University of New York at Buffalo, and faculty and/or joint appointments with SUNY-Buffalo departments are available. Applications from minority candidates are particularly welcome.
Established in 1970, RIA has a staff of over 190 persons working on over 30 separate research projects. RIA occupies a five-story building, and offers outstanding resources in support of its research endeavors. Visit the RIA website at:
