The Department of Radiology at Stanford University is seeking a Faculty Affairs Administrator 2 to provide analysis and guidance within the Department regarding faculty and academic staff appointments, reappointments, promotions, and the search process.

The people and programs comprising Stanford Radiology are world-renowned. Stanford Radiology continues to push the boundaries of innovation in physics and engineering to develop cutting-edge methods for enhanced anatomic and functional imaging. Our diverse multidisciplinary teams of scientists, together with industry collaborators, are creating new methods for the early detection of cancer using molecular imaging, nanotechnology, and systems biology. They also continue to develop improved and more targeted methods for least-invasive, and compassionate cancer patient care.

Ultimately, Stanford Radiology plans to play a very important role in the development of personalized medicine by moving advances from the laboratories to the clinic for improved patient-centric care. Anticipating better tools for implementing personalized medicine, we are starting to develop a patient-centric approach to radiology that will greatly increase the interaction between radiologists and their patients.
