[YSPNetwork] Post-doc Fellowship in Suicide

[Donna NOONAN]

YSPNetworkers,
Please see the following notice I received from another listserv this morning: 
 
 
I am pleased to announce a fellowship opportunity in the University of 
Rochester's Center for the Study and Prevention of Suicide.
 
 The URMC Department of Psychiatry Center for the Study and Prevention 
of Suicide (CSPS) seeks applicants for research training fellowships in 
suicide prevention across the life span. Suicide and attempted suicide 
are major public health problems, but currently there are few 
researchers devoted to their study.
 This fellowship, supported by a National Research Service Award grant 
from NIMH, is designed for individuals aspiring to academic research 
careers that focus on:
• investigating risk factors associated with suicidal behavior
• developing new approaches for preventing suicide or attempted suicide
• developing and testing clinical interventions with higher risk 
clinical or community populations
• evaluating ongoing efforts to reduce the mortality and morbidity 
associated with suicide and attempted suicide, and their antecedents.
Positions are available for up to three years. Core areas of skill 
development include:
• psychopathology and psychosocial research across the lifespan
• research design and methods
• biostatistics
• grant writing and writing for publication
• and the ethics of research.
The Department of Psychiatry is a vibrant, multidisciplinary research 
environment that vigorously supports academic development. We have 
sponsored and supported research training for two decades, and our 
mentoring and research support infrastructure has successfully fostered 
the careers of many NIH-funded investigators.
In order to be eligible for NIH training programs, one must be a US 
citizen or permanent resident. Trainees with backgrounds in psychiatry 
or other relevant medical specialties, nursing, psychology, social work, 
or public health are best suited to this training program. Applications 
require submission of a c.v., statement of career goals and interests, 
and three letters of recommendation by individuals familiar with the 
candidate's academic performance. Members of under-represented minority 
groups are strongly encouraged to apply. Please address inquiries to Dr. 
Conwell at the address below.
