Postdoctoral Position at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center
May 03, 2023
The position is at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center in the Health Disparities Research Department (HDR) of the Division of Cancer Prevention & Population Sciences in Houston, TX. HDR supports a portfolio of investigator-initiated grants, and develops funding opportunities and research resources to reduce, and ultimately eliminate, disparities in cancer incidence, morbidity and mortality and cancer-related behavior through research and education addressing the determinants of disparities as well as interventions and policies designed to eliminate disparities. MDACC has extensive resources for post-doctoral scholars, such as weekly grand rounds, training workshops, grant writing workshops, writing assistance, library support, and statistical support. Review of applications will begin immediately and will continue until the position is filled. The start date is negotiable.
The postdoctoral fellow will work with the Dr. Larkin Strong and a multidisciplinary team of collaborators on an NIH-funded R01 study, Women on the Move. Women on the Move is a randomized controlled trial testing the efficacy of a dyadic motivational and social support intervention for promoting physical activity in inactive, predominantly Black and Latina women. The fellow will contribute to project oversight and planning, conduct analyses, prepare and submit manuscripts, develop grant proposals, and develop an independent program of research. Opportunities to work on additional projects are also available. The fellow will work with the PI to apply for a diversity supplement to Dr. Strong’s R01 and thus candidates should be a member of a group considered by the NIH to be underrepresented in health-related research. This includes individuals who are Black or African American, Hispanic or Latino, American Indian or Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian and other Pacific Islanders. Individuals with disabilities and those from disadvantaged backgrounds are also eligible. Additional information can be found in PA-21-071.
