Description:
“Candidates should be interested in interdisciplinary research projects that focus on understanding social and cultural impediments to health span and/or efforts to improve health span and demonstrate potential for interdisciplinary collaboration across departments and with various research centers (e.g. Center for Demography and Ecology, the Center for Demography of Health and Aging, and the Center for Healthy Minds).” Candidates should have a “Ph.D. in gender studies (gender and women’s studies; gender and sexuality studies; feminist studies) or other disciplinary or interdisciplinary field required by start of appointment.” “We are particularly interested in scholars who study gendered aging among socially or economically marginalized groups. Use of identifiable feminist research methods and interest in community-engaged research are a plus. Areas of interest include gendered aging among Indigenous people; aging concerns among queer/trans communities; women, aging, and sexuality; Black women and aging; women and elder abuse. Strong candidates with a commitment to interdisciplinary research on gender or sexuality and aging and an interest in advancing the health span (safe, secure, and healthy lifespan) regardless of sub-specialization, will be considered.”
