Postdoctoral Research Scholar

Arizona State University, the Department of Psychology and REACH Institute in The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences and the College of Health Solutions invites applications for a NIDA-funded T32 Postdoctoral Research Scholar training program focusing on closing the research-practice gap in drug abuse prevention.

Training is delivered through individually-tailored programs of coursework in drug abuse and implementation science and mentored research experience. Trainees select multiple mentors from a large and multidisciplinary faculty whose work includes preventive interventions with children, youth, and families in settings including schools, health care, community mental health settings, and family courts. Emphases include implementation science for the adoption and sustainability of preventive interventions in natural service delivery settings, interventions for ethnically diverse populations, and quantitative methods in prevention science.

The program is particularly interested in applicants with the potential to bring to their research careers the critical perspective that comes from their understanding of the experiences of groups historically underrepresented in research and higher education.
