ASN Foundation Undergraduate Diversity Research Fellowship
January 05, 2023
The ASN Foundation Undergraduate Diversity Research Fellowship (UDRF) were created to promote diversity in the field of nutrition through long-term change. The UDRF is designed to provide direct funding for undergraduate research projects that may have an impact to the broader field of nutrition. This award competition will give historically underrepresented undergraduate students research and travel funding to participate in a poster competition on their completed research project at the American Society for Nutrition’s annual flagship meeting, NUTRITION. In addition to funding to conduct research, the UDRF will also provide travel funding to allow fellowship awardees to present, participate, network, and learn at NUTRITION 2023.
Postdoctoral Fellowship Funded by American Heart Association
January 03, 2023
The Behavioral Economics to Transform Trial Enrollment Representativeness (BETTER) Center is an American Heart Association-funded effort to understand and improve diversity and representation in clinical trials focused on cardiovascular health. As part of our efforts, we will train several postdoctoral fellows with interests in health services research, clinical trials, trial representativeness, and health inequities.
Post-doctoral fellowships are generally for 2 years in duration, but clinical fellows who propose 1 year of training will be considered. The first fellow began 7/1/22, and we are currently soliciting applications for a fellow who will start 7/1/2023. We may be able to accommodate alternative start dates but may prioritize fellows that can start in July. Fellows can be (1) physicians who would participate during research years within their residency or fellowship training; (2) clinicians (including nurses or other non-physicians) who have completed their clinical training and wish to do a research fellowship (whether or not they have done another fellowship previously); and (3) non-clinicians who have completed a doctoral degree but have not yet been appointed to a full-time faculty position.
