Description:

Holland Bloorview Kids Rehabilitation Hospital is Canada’s largest children’s
rehabilitation hospital, fully affiliated with the University of Toronto.
Chosen as one of Greater Toronto’s Top Employers 2014 by the Globe and Mail
and listed among Canada’s Top 40 Research Hospitals in 2013 and 2014, Holland
Bloorview is a unique and exceptional place to work. We pioneer treatments,
technologies, therapies and real-world programs that give children with
disabilities the tools to participate fully in life. The Bloorview Research
Institute is Canada’s only hospital-embedded childhood disability research
institute. Our world-class scientists currently hold 5 hospital-university
endowed research chairs and 2 Canada Research Chairs. Research is closely
integrated with teaching and clinical practice via 4 Centres for Leadership
in: child development (cerebral palsy, autism, neuromuscular conditions),
participation and inclusion, acquired brain injury, and innovation.

The Department of Speech Language Pathology (http://www.slp.utoronto.ca) is
part of the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Toronto. The University
of Toronto is strongly committed to diversity within its community and
especially welcomes applications from visible minority group members, women,
Aboriginal persons, persons with disabilities, members of sexual minority
groups, and others who may contribute to the further diversification of ideas.
 All qualified candidates are encouraged to apply; however, Canadians and
permanent residents will be given priority.

The Bloorview Research Institute at Holland Bloorview Kids Rehabilitation
Hospital and the Department of Speech Language Pathology (SLP) at the
University of Toronto invite applications for a Scientist/Assistant Professor
position. Effective start date is August 2015 or shortly thereafter.

Key Responsibilities:

The successful candidate will lead a stellar, clinically-driven program of
research relating to communication disorders and treatment in children and
youth, especially those with neurological conditions. The individual will be
responsible for securing competitive research funding, attracting and training
top-notch graduate students, publishing in high impact journals and leading
knowledge translation activities. The distribution of time for this position
is 80% academic (research & teaching) and 20% clinical. The clinician
scientist is expected to interface seamlessly with clinical, educational and
research teams at Holland Bloorview and the Bloorview School Authority, and
with on-campus faculty in the Department of SLP. As part of his/her position,
the individual will teach the equivalent of a half-course on pediatric
language disorders in the department of SLP, and participate in service
activities at Holland Bloorview and SLP. Teaching and research supervision may
include MHSc students in the Department of Speech Language Pathology, as well
as MSc and PhD students in the Rehabilitation Science Institute at the
University of Toronto.
