Description
Applications are now being accepted for admission to a HRSA-funded T-32 two-year postdoctoral training program in primary care health services research at Dartmouth College. This individually tailored mentoring fellowship is led by a team of senior primary care health services researchers: Cathleen Morrow, MD, James Stahl, MD, CM, MPH and Martha Bruce, PhD, MPH. This postdoctoral training program offers fellows the unique opportunity to choose mentorship from over 15 experts in the field of health care delivery science and primary care services research. Mentoring opportunities will focus on establishing fundamental research skills, obtaining preliminary pilot data, writing first-authored manuscripts, and submitting a research project grant or career development award in one or more of Dartmouth’s many strengths in health care delivery science, including secondary analysis of population-based data sets, intervention research, and implementation science. In addition to working with their primary research mentor to conduct a pilot study or analysis of existing data as the basis for an R03/R21 application, fellows will also have the opportunity to complete a 3-year fellowship that includes a Masters in Public Health (MPH) degree from The Dartmouth Institute for Health Policy & Clinical Practice. As part of the training as an early-career investigator, fellows have the opportunity to attend seminars and workshops on health care delivery science methods and statistics, implementation research, mobile health technology, health care innovation, human and health systems engineering, and research career and grant skill development. This fellowship program strives to quickly and efficiently develop a new generation of early career investigators having the skills to address critical gaps in knowledge as needed to achieve HHS’s Triple Aim: improving health care quality and population health while reducing overall health care costs.
