[Jobs] Post-doctoral Diversity Fellow: The effects of war on mental health

[Leora Lawton]

*Research Program on Children and Global Adversity*
  The Research Program on Children and Global Adversity is seeking a
post-doctoral Diversity Fellow applicant whose interests and career goals
for training align with the activities of our recently-funded NICHD R01 in
Sierra Leone to study the intergenerational effects of war on mental health
and child development.  Interested potential applicants with a background
in quantitative research skills (field based survey data collection, early
childhood assessment, psychometric and multivariate analyses of child and
family mental health outcomes) as well as qualitative research skills are
encouraged to be in touch with Dayo Spencer Walters (
dayospencerwalters at gmail.com) and Dr. Theresa Betancourt (
Theresa_Betancourt at harvard.edu).  The RPCGA and the potential fellow will
then work together to co-construct a proposal for funding to NICHD
comprising a two-year training and mentored research plan aligned with
their career goals and project activities. Of particular interest is the
topic of intimate partner and family violence. Applicants must come from an
under-represented minority group and be US citizens or green card holders.
Willingness to travel for field work as well as prior field based research
in Africa or other low-resource settings is preferred.
