Position Description The Division of Craniofacial Medicine in the Department of Pediatrics at the University of Washington and the Seattle Children's Hospital Craniofacial Center has initiated a national search to identify candidates for a full-time new faculty member at the rank of Clinical Assisant, Clinical Associate or Clinical Professor to provide both craniofacial pediatric and clinical genetic services. Anticipated start date is Fall 2024. Clinical Assistant, Clinical Associate and Clinical Professors hold annual appointments that align with a 12-month service period (July 1 - June 30) and may be reappointed to subsequent annual terms. Faculty with 12-month service periods are paid for 11 months of service over a 12 month period (June-July) meaning the equivalent of one month is available for paid time off. The successful candidate will become a faculty member in the Division of Craniofacial Medicine joining nine clinicians and two full time scientists with a breadth of basic and clinical research programs. The Craniofacial Center at Seattle Children's Hospital specializes in the treatment of cleft lip and palate, Robin sequence, craniosynostosis, craniofacial microsomia, and other complex craniofacial conditions. Our center has become one of the most comprehensive craniofacial centers in North America. This multidisciplinary craniofacial team of over 50 healthcare providers and staff from 14 specialty areas provide all aspects of care for children with craniofacial conditions. Each child who establishes care at our center is assigned a craniofacial pediatrician, who coordinates care across the team and tailors a plan of care to address each child's unique needs. Innovative surgical procedures in the context of comprehensive and holistic care enable these physicians, dentists, and allied health specialists to address even the most serious and complex craniofacial abnormalities. If genetic consultation is indicated, the child is seen by the clinical geneticist and one of the genetic counselors on the team. Our primary service extends throughout the WAMI region (Washington, Alaska, Montana, and Idaho). However, we are now caring for national and international patients who are specifically seeking to receive care at our center. The responsibilities of the craniofacial pediatrician/geneticist include direct patient care in an interdisciplinary clinic, care coordination, intake clinic for new patients and on call coverage of craniofacial medicine inpatients. In addition, they provide patient consultation with the Craniofacial Genetics team (genetic counselors, RNs, and genetic counseling assistants) in outpatient setting. Although this BC/BE pediatrician/clinical geneticist will focus primarily on clinical activity, the specific balance of clinical work, and academic time will be tailored to the interests and experience of the applicant.
