Attention all early-career faculty members out there—this one’s for you! This week on the Faculty Factory Podcast we are joined by Namandjé N. Bumpus, PhD. Dr. Bumpus brings her invaluable recommendations for navigating the early faculty years.
With the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Dr. Bumpus is E.K. Marshall and Thomas H. Maren Professor. She is Director of the Department of Pharmacology and Molecular Sciences.
Dr. Bumpus has won major, internationally recognized awards for her research. Her research interests include studying the metabolism of antiviral drugs used to treat HIV-1.
She received a Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers in 2016 from President Barack Obama. In 2019, she won the prestigious John J. Abel Award as presented by the American Society for Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics (ASPET).
When it comes to piloting the junior faculty years, Dr. Bumpus is a wealth of knowledge and acknowledges the many different ways we can go about it. She also has a lot to say when it comes to avoiding some of the common pitfalls that faculty may encounter.
“There are many ways to do it. It really comes down to your individual interests and goals and just finding the best path that works for you,” she said.
