"Postdoctoral Position in the Yale Cancer Prevention and Control Training Program"

The Yale School of Public Health and the Yale Comprehensive Cancer Center (YCC) have a Cancer Prevention and Control (CPC) T32 training award from the National Institutes of Health (NIH, T32 CA250803, 08/06/2020 - 07/31/2030). Below are key aspects of the training program:

• The Yale CPC Training Program aims to train pre- and post-doctoral fellows in five thematic areas: cancer etiology, cancer outcomes, lifestyle behavioral interventions, implementation science and community-engaged research.
• The program is enabled by over 35 faculty members at the Yale Schools of Public Health, Medicine, and Nursing, who have an outstanding track record in CPC research and mentoring of junior investigators.
• Fellows will also directly participate and interact with the YCC Research Programs and other research centers and groups at Yale that are relevant to their areas of interest.
• Our training program will include a comprehensive mentoring program; a structured CPC Fellows research in progress meetings; and additional training activities focused on career development strategies.
• We will select highly qualified candidates who wish to pursue a career in CPC. It is our goal that CPC Fellows will develop the knowledge and skills necessary to function independently, and develop and carry out innovative, impactful studies filling key gaps in CPC research, potentially changing the standard of care and impacting policy.
• Selected postdoctoral candidates will receive stipend support and may request training related expenses based on NIH policy. They are also eligible for additional compensation in accordance with Yale institutional policy.

We would like to recruit a postdoctoral fellow in cancer outcomes research, with a particular interest in decision/simulation modeling and cost-effectiveness analysis. The ideal candidate will have strong quantitative skills and an interest in applying modeling methodologies to inform clinical and policy decisions in oncology. We are looking for candidates who can begin as soon as possible, with a preferred start date by January 2026.

Review of applications will commence in September 2025 and will continue until the position is filled. Applications must be submitted online via Interfolio.
