Fellowship Focus & Opportunities

This fellowship will immerse the postdoctoral scholar in high-impact research at the intersection of rigorous psychological science, school behavioral health systems, and prevention/intervention strategies.

The fellowship has a strong emphasis on translational research, and ideal candidates are individuals interested in pursuing an academic career. Fellows are expected to make significant contributions to the research productivity of the lab, including preparation of manuscripts as well as submitting for extramural funding (for their own research and for the lab), and will have opportunities to pursue independent research and interdisciplinary collaborations across Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School. The fellow will be considered for a joint Harvard Medical School appointment (appointment is not guaranteed).

Fellows will have the opportunity to:

• Lead and contribute to multidisciplinary projects that inform the development and/or evaluation of evidence-based behavioral health supports (e.g., universal and Tier 2 strategies, measurement-based care, implementation strategies tailored to school contexts).

• Collaborate with school partners, community stakeholders, policymakers, and research teams to advance scalable, equitable practice and policy solutions that support student mental health.

• Engage in mixed-methods research, including qualitative and quantitative data collection, analysis, and interpretation.

• Drive dissemination, including preparation of manuscripts for peer-reviewed journals, presentations at national conferences, and contributions to grant proposals.

• Receive mentorship and professional development tailored to independent research career trajectories, including grant writing and academic leadership.

Qualifications:

• A recently completed Ph.D. or equivalent in psychology, public health, education, health services, implementation science, or a related discipline (degree conferred by fellowship start).

• A strong background in qualitative and/or quantitative analytical methods.

• Demonstrated experience in applying various theories, methods, or frameworks to strengthen school-based behavioral health research (e.g., CFIR, MTSS, Proctor’s outcomes, hybrid trial designs).

• Commitment to rigorous research and translating evidence into real-world practice and policy.

• Experience with mixed-methods research, community-engaged partnerships, or translational science is highly desirable.

• Excellent communication skills and a record (or strong potential) of scientific productivity.

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
