The successful applicant will be expected to establish a high-caliber research program that addresses important problems at the nexus of technology, biology, and/or healthcare while contributing substantially toward our renowned undergraduate and graduate educational programs. Applicants pursuing research in all fields of biomedical engineering are welcome and will receive full consideration. Especially encouraged to apply are those candidates whose research makes use primarily of computational methods and would align our department's strategic priorities in the cognitive cyber nexus and precision health therapy/diagnostics. Department Overview Founded in 1977, the Department of Biomedical Engineering (BME) is a global leader in biomedical engineering education and scholarship headquartered in the School of Science and Engineering (SSE) on Tulane's picturesque uptown campus. Its mission is to inspire and work with students to develop and apply engineering methods to address health science challenges. The BME undergraduate program has been ABET accredited since 1981, and we currently have approximately 150 undergraduate BSE majors and 50 graduate students in MS and PhD programs. BME originated from joint research efforts among faculty in the SSE and the Schools of Medicine (SOM) at Tulane and the Louisiana State University Medical Center in New Orleans. Over the past 45+ years, BME research has expanded from a mechanics-oriented focus to a broader range of investigations, including biomechanics, biotransport, biomaterials, tissue engineering, medical imaging, and biomedical instrumentation, and expends approximately $2.3 million in research funding annually. The department is home to 13 core faculty with specific focus on investigations of pulmonary mechanics, blood physiology and biomechanics, microphysiological systems, cell therapies, medical imaging, and data science. The department is strongly committed to clinically translational research. For example, one of our faculty was recently recognized as one of the first awardees of the Biden Cancer Moonshot project, with up to $22.9 million in funding from the Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H) to support perioperative cancer detection. Over half of our tenure-track faculty are engaged in entrepreneurship and technology licensing. The newly opened Steven and Jann Paul Hall provides advanced laboratory and instructional space. The BME department also leads Tulane's Institute of Integrated Engineering for Health and Medicine (TI2EHM) on the downtown Health Sciences Campus. TI2EHM is dedicated to clinical-translational research and technology development, and provides BME faculty with exceptional laboratory space in close proximity to colleagues in the School of Medicine, Public Health and Tropical Medicine, and the New Orleans Bioinnovation Center (NOBIC). Finally, BME administers an interdisciplinary Bioinnovation PhD program that was founded by an NSF IGERT and is currently supported by an NIH T32 training grant. These initiatives position the department as a key leader in the Tulane University Innovation Institute.

About the Institution Founded in 1925 by Saint Katharine Drexel and the Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament, Xavier University of Louisiana is the only Catholic Historically Black College and University (HBCU). Located in New Orleans, the ultimate purpose of the University is to contribute to the promotion of a more just and humane society by preparing its students to assume roles of leadership and service in a global society. Xavier University of Louisiana's current enrollment is 3,419. Of these, 2,693 are undergraduates and 205 are graduate students enrolled in Masters and Doctoral programs in the College of Arts and Sciences. In addition, there are 518 students enrolled in the College of Pharmacy, which offers the Master of Health Science in Physician Assistant Studies, the Master of Science in Pharmaceutical Sciences, and the Doctor of Pharmacy. Xavier's student body is 80% African American, with approximately 37% from Louisiana, primarily from the New Orleans area. Xavier University of Louisiana has been a member of the Louisiana Cancer Research Center, a consortium that also includes Tulane University, LSU Health Sciences Center and Ochsner Health since 2007.

The LCRC has recently reorganized into the structure of an NCI center and is aggressively building cancer research and outreach programs. Living in the Area Xavier is located near the heart of New Orleans in a quiet neighborhood dotted with bungalows. An enclosed campus green mutes the urban feel of the encroaching city, and yellow brick buildings have been erected among the older historical limestone structures. Xavier was hard-hit in 2005 by Hurricane Katrina (much of the campus was underwater), but $130 million in renovations as well as the construction of the state-of-the-art Pharmacy Pavilion, Convocation Center, and St. Katharine Drexel Chapel, leave no traces of that tragic event. With a population of 400,000 and a cost of living lower than the national average, New Orleans charms visitors and locals alike with its music scene, diverse cuisine, and refusal to abandon its cultural traditions. But what is truly wonderful about the Big Easy lies at its heart, beyond the casual tourists swaying Mardi Gras beads and late-night strolls down Bourbon Street. The residents of New Orleans are infused with a resilient and welcoming spirit that celebrates eccentricity. To Apply Please apply through the application link and do not email applications.
