Hi Gerlind, To clarify, the position is tenure-leading, where tenure dossiers are typically submitted in the 5th year of employment. If tenure is granted, then the position is a continuous appointment. The 9-month language in the ad refers to the academic year-typically faculty can either choose to take their salary over either 9 or 12 months. Faculty can also raise additional funds for salary over the summer via grants. This is common (nearly universal) in the US system. Importantly, this is _not_ simply a 9-month contract position, which would not make sense for an Assistant Professor.

Personally, I feel that working conditions and job offers in the scientific field have deteriorated considerably in recent years. I've always been shocked by one-year job offers involving international movements. Now we seem to be down at job offers for 9 months. >From a human point of view, I find this extremely worrying. Sorry to pollute the mailing list with my personal opinions. All the best.

Areas of particular interest include but are not limited to time-resolved approaches to understanding macromolecular function, multiscale imaging, and integrated computational and experimental approaches to structural biology. Researchers at UNL have collaborations with national user facilities pioneering time-resolved X-ray diffraction techniques and have established a state-of-the-art cryo-EM facility housing a Thermo Scientific Glacios 200 keV Cryo TEM equipped with a Falcon 4i direct electron detector camera, a Selectris zero-loss energy filter, and capability for micro-electron diffraction of crystalline samples. The new cryo-EM facility is part of a strategic growth plan at UNL and complements existing strengths in X-ray crystallography, biophysics, and computation at UNL. Review of applications will begin November 15, 2023 and continue until the position is filled or the search is closed.
