Search open for Professorship in Aging/Director Regional Institute on Aging

Teresa Radebaugh, founding director of the Regional Institute on Aging, recently announced her retirement effective June 1, 2015. In 2007, Radebaugh worked with the university administration to develop a coordinating mechanism for aging research. What blossomed is now a well-respected institute, both regionally and nationally.

Because of Radebaugh's retirement announcement, the Division of Academic Affairs, where the institute is housed, is opening an internal search to replace Radebaugh as the Carl and Rozina Cassat Professor in Aging and Director of the Regional Institute on Aging.

The successful candidate will be someone with a major track record and commitment to aging research, in their current tenured position, who will take on the additional responsibilities of the professorship and director, and compensated with a stipend from the professorship fund.
