The successful candidate will become part of a dedicated team of 10 full-time faculty members who provide around-the-clock in-house EM coverage. Opportunities for involvement in either clinical or laboratory-based research may also be available.

The clinical services for the Division of Emergency Medicine are provided at our facility in New Brunswick, NJ, which is adjacent to the Bristol Myers Squibb Children's Hospital (BMSCH).
