<p class="MsoNormal">The
Population Studies and Training Center (PSTC) at Brown University is currently
recruiting a two-year Postdoctoral Research Associate to start on or around
July 1, 2017.<span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
Research at the PSTC is innovative and interdisciplinary. It is distinguished
by its commitment for collaboration across disciplinary and institutional
boundaries as well as its strong portfolio of global research. The scope of
PSTC research encompasses traditional topics of interest to demographers, such
as migration and family processes, as well as a much broader range of issues,
including environmental change, social inequalities and health, gender, family
structure, residential segregation, and HIV/AIDS epidemic. Opportunities also
exist to build upon connections the PSTC has with other interdisciplinary units
at Brown, such as the Watson Institute for International and Policy Affairs,
Institute at Brown for Environment and Society, Spatial Structures in the
Social Sciences, the School of Public Health, the Data Sciences Initiative, and
more. Potential applicants are encouraged to consult the <a href="http://www.pstc.brown.edu/">PSTC website</a> to learn of research
activities, intra-institutional links, and faculty affiliate interests.<span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
As part of a research unit with a strong culture of collaboration, postdoctoral
fellows are expected to spend part of their time working independently and part
of their time working collaboratively with one or more mentors from among our
faculty affiliates. In addition, postdoctoral associates are expected to
coordinate or participate in relevant working groups, regularly attend the
weekly PSTC Colloquia and other PSTC workshops and mentoring activities,
present their work to the PSTC community, present research at the Population
Association of America (PAA) annual meetings, and submit one or more articles
for publication. They are also encouraged to prepare grant applications. We
request that applicants visit our <a href="https://www.brown.edu/academics/population-studies/about-us/people/faculty">PSTC
faculty page</a> and identify one or two potential faculty mentors; however,
applicants do not need to contact potential mentors prior to submitting an
application.<span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Qualifications<span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Postdoctoral
Research Associates must have a Ph.D. in anthropology, economics, sociology,
demography, or a related social science discipline.<span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Application
Instructions<span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Applicants
should provide an up-to-date CV, 2 example(s) of written work, and a cover
letter with the following information: research interests and plans, 1 or 2
anticipated PSTC faculty mentor(s), and future employment goals. Please have
three letters of recommendation submitted online through interfolio. A
review of applications will begin by January 31, 2017 and will continue until
the position is filled or the search is closed. <span></span></p>

an institutional training grant from the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National

an emphasis on maternal/child, adolescent and family health. To enable fellows
to become proficient, independent investigators, interdisciplinary training
includes didactic, small group interaction, and experiential learning
