22 Ivy openings this week
This weekly roundup lists 22 new or newly updated Ivy League tenure-track, faculty-track, and postdoctoral openings from the July 3-10 scan window. It includes a scan table, cited listing notes, hard-deadline triage, and clear caveats for Interfolio-limited or otherwise unconfirmed track details.
Twenty-two new or newly updated Ivy League academic openings are usable for the July 3-10 scan window. The spread is broad: Harvard added a genetics-heavy postdoc cluster, Cornell added two postdoctoral routes, Penn and Columbia added medical faculty-track rows, Dartmouth refreshed engineering and business faculty searches, and Brown added two postdocs.
Read the table as a triage sheet, not as a guarantee that every hidden application detail page exposed full track language. Several Interfolio-backed listings only had listing-level detail available, so deadline, salary, and tenure-track status are marked as "not published" or "likely" where the source material did not confirm them. Princeton has no confirmed qualifying row this week; the Laurance S. Rockefeller item was excluded because it is a visiting faculty fellowship rather than a postdoctoral fellowship, and the legacy Princeton portal did not expose a qualifying current listing. 1 2

Fast triage
The hard near-term application dates are Harvard Sinclair Lab on July 30, Harvard Yankner Lab on July 31, Brown Voss on September 1, Dartmouth BCE and MSE review on October 1, and Cornell Atkinson on October 20. Harvard Wyss had a July 8 preferred date, so candidates should treat that row as time-sensitive rather than deadline-safe. 4 5 24 20 21 11 6
Candidates who only want confirmed tenure-track language should start with Penn Neuroscience, Penn Endocrinology, Dartmouth Biological and Chemical Engineering, and Dartmouth Materials Science. Candidates open to faculty-track clinical rows should also inspect Columbia Pediatrics, Columbia Endocrinology, Columbia Anesthesiology, and the two Yale Anesthesiology entries, but those Yale rows need direct verification before counting them as tenure-track opportunities. 13 14 20 21 17 18 19 9 10
