The University of Maryland School of Medicine (UMSOM) and the University of Maryland Marlene and Stewart Greenebaum Comprehensive Cancer Center (UMGCCC) in Baltimore invite applications for a full-time faculty position in Classical Hematology. This is an opportunity to join and help shape a growing academic classical hematology program, with particular opportunities in red blood cell and iron disorders, sickle cell disease, thrombosis/hemostasis, and other non-malignant hematologic conditions. We are seeking a hematologist who combines outstanding clinical care with a strong interest in translational and/or clinical research and who wants to build a distinctive area of clinical and scholarly expertise. A major area of institutional investment is sickle cell disease. UMMC provides comprehensive adult sickle cell care that includes disease-modifying therapy, red blood cell exchange, same-day infusion services, allogeneic stem cell transplantation, clinical trials, and FDA-approved gene therapy. In April 2026, UMMC treated the first adult in Maryland to receive an FDA-approved sickle cell gene therapy. The program is now focused on expanding access across Maryland, strengthening coordination across outpatient, acute-care, transfusion, and cellular-therapy settings, and developing a sustainable regional model of care. With more than 5,000 people living with sickle cell disease in Maryland, this work offers an exceptional opportunity for meaningful clinical impact, program development, and patient-centered research. The University of Maryland brings internationally recognized, and in several areas world-leading, expertise across multiple fields central to classical hematology. These strengths include iron and heme biology, red blood cell biology and physiology, hemoglobin biology, oxygen transport, transfusion science, and the development of therapies for disorders of the blood. The institution also has deep and rapidly growing expertise in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and cellular therapy, including gene- and cell-based approaches for inherited blood disorders. Together, these programs create an unusually rich environment for a classical hematologist to work across the full spectrum from fundamental biology to clinical translation and advanced therapeutics. The successful candidate will have opportunities to develop collaborative clinical and research programs in red cell and iron disorders, hemoglobinopathies, transfusion-related complications, and other areas of classical hematology while contributing to the continued growth of these institutional strengths. The essential functions of the position include attending on the University of Maryland Medical Center Hematology consultation service; providing outpatient consultation and longitudinal care for patients with classical hematologic diseases; developing an area of clinical expertise within the classical hematology program; educating and mentoring Hematology/Medical Oncology fellows, residents, and medical students; and leading or participating in translational and/or clinical research. Candidates with interests in program building, clinical trials, outcomes research, implementation science, or innovative care-delivery models are particularly encouraged to apply. Clinical and translational research is supported by UMGCCC Shared Services within the Center for Innovative Biomedical Resources (CIBR), the UMGCCC Clinical Research Office, and the broader University of Maryland, Baltimore research environment. Faculty can collaborate with internationally recognized investigators in red cell and iron biology, transfusion science, vascular biology, critical care, engineering, stem cell transplantation, cellular therapy, and clinical investigation. These areas are undergoing substantial institutional growth, creating opportunities to build new programs, develop investigator-initiated studies and clinical trials, and move discoveries from basic mechanisms to new diagnostics, therapeutics, gene and cell therapies, and models of care. Candidates must have an MD or MD/PhD degree and fellowship training and experience in Hematology. They must be board-certified in Internal Medicine and board-certified or board-eligible in Hematology and eligible for a medical license in Maryland. Applicants must demonstrate excellent qualifications in clinical care, education, and research. Expected faculty rank for this position is Assistant Professor or higher, however, final rank, tenure status and salary will be dependent on the selected candidate's qualifications. The expected salary range for Assistant Professors is $200,000 (min) and $425,703 (max). The referenced salary range reflects base pay, which is based on faculty rank and years in rank.
