Postdoctoral Fellowship opportunity in Global HIV & TB Research

Post-Doctoral Research Fellowships for Global HIV and TB Public Health Programs

The mission of this fellowship program is to recruit, mentor, and train scientist-practitioners to conduct global HIV and TB research and to develop the translational and applied skills necessary to implement and support high-quality HIV and TB public health programs in global settings. The goal of this fellowship is to attract and support recent recipients of doctoral degrees to understand the underpinnings of interventional epidemiology and to prepare them for a career operating at the intersection of science and practice in global public health. The selected candidates will be in the Division of Global HIV & TB (DGHT) at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), headquartered in Atlanta, GA. The DGHT Office of the Director (DGHT OD) is the lead for the program. Fellows will also be paired with DGHT’s programmatic or data branches on various projects throughout their fellowship.

The deadline to apply to this fellowship is June 30, 2021. The fellowship is scheduled to begin Fall 2021, subject to availability of funds.

Using Syndemics to Understand HLBS Disease Emergence and Progression in People with HIV (PWH)(R01 Clinical Trial Not Allowed), expires 12/15/2021

Application Due Date(s): January 11, 2021, and December 14, 2021

This funding opportunity announcement is intended to support research project grant (R01) applications that propose to utilize a syndemics (synergistic epidemic) framework to elucidate the role of social, economic, environmental, behavioral, structural, psychological factors in promoting the synergistic interactions and clustering of heart, lung, blood, and sleep (HLBS) comorbidities among people with HIV at the population level. The ultimate goal is to identify strategies that foster holistic approaches in the clinical management of people living with HIV who have HLBS comorbidities, and to utilize existing data to assess the feasibility and cost-effectiveness of such approaches.
