Additional Columbia position: Neurology faculty search (newly confirmed)

Research this week confirmed that two distinct Columbia Neurology postings are currently active — previously thought to be duplicates. 8
  • Interfolio #187158 — general Neurology faculty search, all ranks (Instructor through Associate Professor), salary range $100,727–$275,000, open date May 23, 2026. Full job description not accessible due to a single-page-app barrier on Interfolio; details sourced from Google snippet only.
  • HERC #22296475 — Neurology / Herbert Irving Comprehensive Cancer Center (HICCC) neuro-oncologist search, all ranks (Assistant through Full Professor), rolling deadline. 9 This posting was first reported May 24, 2026.
