The Prevention Research Center of the Pacific Institute for Research and Evaluation and the School of Public Health at the University of California, Berkeley are seeking applicants for three-year postdoctoral fellowships in the Prevention Science Research Training Program funded by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism.
The fellowships provide training for individuals who wish to pursue careers in prevention science research with an emphasis on health and social problems related to the use and abuse of alcohol and other substances. The program provides requisite training for early-career scientists in the multiple theoretical and methodological approaches to prevention research that are necessary to pursue successful careers in this field.
Individuals from a broad range of social and behavioural science disciplines (e.g., psychology, sociology, economics, anthropology, public health, epidemiology, and ethnic studies) are encouraged to apply. Applicants need not have a history of working in alcohol prevention.
Seminars and trainees’ participation in the program will be conducted virtually until the COVID-19 pandemic is resolved. Until that time onsite residency is not required.
