Research
Will you be our new Research Theme Leader?
Our faculty is looking for leaders to represent the six strategic research themes from the Faculty Strategic Plan:
- Biodiversity
- Complex Networks
- Sustainability
- AI
- Drug Discovery & Development
- Quantum & Space
As a Faculty Research Theme Leader, you’ll take the lead on one of these themes, working closely with the Faculty Board, fellow researchers, and external partners. You’ll receive support from Academic Affairs and Communication & Marketing, and starting September 2025, each theme will benefit from dedicated funding to grow existing and new initiatives.
This is your chance to strengthen your leadership profile and contribute to the faculty’s long-term strategy. You’ll be the face of your research theme, fostering collaboration, increasing visibility, and creating real impact. We're looking for an enthusiastic Associate Professor or Full Professor with a clear vision and strong communication skills.
Interested? Please send a brief motivation letter and CV to Monique Leemkuil by 1 July. Interviews will take place in late July.
