Non-Doctoral Level Training in Social and Behavioral Research
at the National Institutes of Health
The Social and Behavioral Research Branch (SBRB), a new Intramural research
branch of the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI), is inviting
recent graduates to pursue multidisciplinary training in genomics and health.
Researchers in SBRB investigate social, behavioral, and ethical factors that
facilitate translation of genomic discoveries for health promotion, disease
prevention, genetic counseling, and health care improvements. Trainees will
work closely with internationally-recognized social and behavioral scientists,
clinical investigators, and bioethicists during their fellowship. To learn more
about the SBRB's research mission and ongoing research, see the
Social and Behavioral Research Branch Web page.
Interested applicants should submit a curriculum
vitae, a 1- to 3-page letter of research interests, and the names of three potential
referees through NIH's online Intramural Research Training Award (IRTA) application
system at:
The NIH Postbaccalaureate IRTA Fellowship Program [training.nih.gov]
Applications are accepted throughout the year.
