The Research Training Program in Child Mental Health prepares post-residency psychiatrists, post-doctoral psychologists, and behavioral scientists to conduct independent research in the area of child mental health as full-time University faculty members. The Program is a two-year fellowship in which research fellows train under the guidance of experienced mentors. It includes didactic work, participation in ongoing funded projects, and independent research.
A central characteristic of the Program is its diversity. Participating faculty have expertise in normal development, psychopathology, psychophysiology and public health. This diversity allows for four broad areas of research training: 1) developmental processes and risk factors (emphasis on infants, toddlers, and preschoolers in risk contexts); 2) pediatric psychology/psychiatry including depression/ suicidality, anxiety disorders, HIV, obesity, asthma, smoking; 3) biological bases of biobehavioral regulation including genetics, chronobiology and neuroimaging; and 4) childhood mood, anxiety and substance use disorders. This 2-year postdoctoral fellowship begins July 1, 2012. The deadline for consideration is January 15, 2012. For further details, please go to: DPHB T32 Fellowships more |
