Psychology and Medicine: Translational Research on Stress, Behavior and Disease

This NIMH-funded postdoctoral program trains researchers to link basic psychological theories and research to preventing and ameliorating disease. There are two areas, and cross-cutting both areas is a consideration of disparities in mental and physical illness and the mechanisms by which they occur. The two areas are: (1) Health-risking behavior: Fellows in this area focus on developing and applying theories of risk perception, social learning, cognitive development, and risk-taking to understand and modify health-risk behaviors. (2) Stress, emotion, depression, and psychobiology: Fellows in this area focus on theories of emotion, stress, and cognitive processes as they relate to changes in neurobiology and behavior.

Applications will be due on February 3, 2014. Details can be found on our website:
