UCSF Center for Tobacco Control Research and Education Postdoc Fellowships
The purpose of the fellowship is:
• To prepare individuals from a wide variety of backgrounds in medical, biological, social, behavioral, and policy sciences to join the next generation of academic leaders in tobacco control.
• Upon completion of training, fellows will be well positioned to be active participants in crucial policy debates about the future development and implementation of tobacco control interventions.
The fellowship supports 2 years of postdoctoral training in all aspects of tobacco control research:
• Our program stresses the skills needed to conduct research in diverse, collaborative transdisciplinary settings.
• We emphasize leadership in catalyzing the integration of multiple disciplines and translating science to policy and clinical practice.
• Postdoctoral fellows will have exposure to diverse training, including both didactic coursework and individualized mentoring to build a personalized research program.
Prior tobacco research experience is relevant, but not necessary for acceptance. Fellows have come from medicine, public health, nursing, economics, anthropology, political science, law, sociology, psychology, and cell biology.
