[WTI-trainee] WTI faculty search: Help us spread the word!

[Guerrero-Medina, Giovanna]

Dear Wu Tsai members and colleagues,

As Director of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion for the Wu Tsai Institute, one of my roles is to support efforts to identify outstanding candidates from diverse disciplines who can enrich our community through their commitment and contributions to more diverse and inclusive research environments. We have just launched a new open-area, open-rank faculty job search<https://bit.ly/wti-faculty2024> and I am hoping you will help us spread the word!

Please distribute the message below among your networks and contacts. It would be great if you could personally encourage scientists who may be interested in this opportunity. You can also share our tweet<https://x.com/WuTsaiYale/status/1838639392971268345> or use our slide for your presentations<https://yale.box.com/shared/static/h7ew4yp2jvuubwv0q2bfizrh1i5csn4g.pptx>. And if there are any inspiring scientists to whom you think we should reach out directly to encourage their application, please feel free to send me their contact details so I can invite them.

The first deadline is October 15, so I would really appreciate your timely help.

Thanks in advance,

***
