Job Description:

AN IMMEDIATE NIDA/NIMH POST-DOCTORAL FELLOWSHIP OPENING AVAILABLE

Two post-doctoral fellowship positions are available in the NIDA-sponsored Training Program in Drug Abuse Comorbidity, Prevention and Biostatistics, and NIMH-sponsored Training Program in Psychiatric Epidemiology and Biostatistics, both at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, Missouri, USA. U.S. citizens and U.S. permanent residents are eligible. The Department of Psychiatry is internationally recognized for its pioneer work in substance abuse and psychiatric epidemiology, as well as for genetic epidemiology of psychiatric and substance use disorders. Comprehensive training is available in biostatistics, prevention, epidemiology, comorbidity, services research, infectious diseases, and public health risk factors; and additional tracks are available for genetics and neuroscience training. Multiple mentors can be chosen from a pool of more than two dozen training faculty members. Interdisciplinary post-doctoral projects incorporating both biomedical and behavioral/social science approaches are particularly encouraged. Qualified applicants may elect to pursue a Master in Psychiatric Epidemiology (MPE) degree or a Genetic Epidemiology Master of Science (GEMS) degree. Numerous opportunities exist to interact and learn from faculty and trainees from five other Department of Psychiatry Training Programs, and postdoc trainees and junior faculty fellows of over two dozen training programs in the School of Medicine. Full descriptions of the NIDA/NIMH programs and applications can be found at http://epi.wustl.edu/epi/fellows.htm.
