Last Chance to Apply: Post-Doctoral Fellowship in the Policy Impact of CER

Are you a post-doctoral student interested in comparative effectiveness research? If so, you should consider applying for the new post-doctoral Fellowship in the Policy Impact of Comparative Effectiveness Research offered by the National Pharmaceutical Council (NPC) and the Department of Health Policy at the George Washington University School of Public Health and Health Services (SPHHS).

Although there are many academic programs that train researchers in how to conduct and apply CER, as well as programs that focus on understanding and developing health care policy, there are very few programs that bring these two areas together. In an effort to bridge this gap and consider the policy implications of CER, NPC and GWU SPHHS have teamed up to offer this two-year fellowship opportunity. The Fellow would be an employee of NPC and also would have an adjunct faculty appointment at the GWU SPHHS. 

Further details are available on NPC’s website, and time is running out to apply: applications are being accepted through January 15, 2013.

Interested applicants must submit a cover letter or statement, resume, and a sample research paper. Applications should be sent (electronically preferred) to  [email protected] or to NPC/GWU Fellowship Search Committee, National Pharmaceutical Council, 1717 Pennsylvania, Ave., NW, Suite 800, Washington, DC  20006.
