Postdoctoral Research Fellowships on Childhood and Adolescent

A major goal of the program is to identify and train scholars from underrepresented groups

who will go on to launch independent research careers based on external funding sources.

The postdoctoral program focuses on development in childhood and adolescence; variations

by race and ethnicity, gender, and social class and how these interact with risk and resilience factors; and the behavioral and social-contextual foundations of mental, physical, and public health disparities. The training focuses heavily on grant writing.
