We are looking for an excellent specialist and researcher to expand our internationally renowned scientific and research agenda in the field of therapeutic radiology and oncology.

Tenure Track Professor of Integral Translational Stereotactic Radiotherapy
Department of Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology
Full-time position (100%); initially limited to 6 years, becoming a tenured position when the qualification agreement is met.

The successful candidate should be a proven expert in the field of stereotactic radiotherapy (STX) and represent it in research, teaching and patient care.

Stereotactic radiotherapy plays a key role at the Department of Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology. Its research goal is to contribute to the integration of genuine radiotherapy data with data from radiotherapeutic and diagnostic imaging, clinical data and molecular data. Excellent research conditions and modern infrastructure, for example eight linear accelerators, two of which are TrueBeam STX (one with HyperSightTM, both with ExacTracTM) and two of which are Ethos with HyperSightTM, provide an optimal foundation for work. In addition, the department has an extensive network of national and international partners in science and industry that it relies upon to promote innovative projects as well as interdisciplinary exchange, for example the Austrian Comprehensive Cancer Network (ACCN) in cooperation with the Bavarian Cancer Research Center (BZKF), the DEGRO Radiosurgery Stereotaxy Working Group and the European Society for Radiotherapy and Oncology (ESTRO). On site, there is close cooperation between the Comprehensive Cancer Center, the Biobank and the Molecular Tumor Board.
The initial appointment is limited to six years with a qualification agreement (tenure track model pursuant to § 99 para. 5 and 6 of the Universities Act). The career advancement goal is to transfer to a tenured position as an associate professor. If the candidate demonstrates outstanding and remarkable achievements, the qualification agreement may be fulfilled in an abbreviated procedure.
