Applicants applying to this posting will be considered for behavioral science research projects in Vaping, and in HPV Vaccination.

Vaping – studying the impact of health warnings for vaping in a randomized clinical trial (NIDA-funded R01), studying uncontrolled vaping and strategies for reducing uncontrolled use in a longitudinal survey (FDA/NCI- funded R01 project), and a third potential project, through pending funding for a UNC-wide TCORS, will examine policies to discourage use of menthol cigarettes.

HPV Vaccination – from Project 1 of the NCI-funded P01 Program Project “Improving Provider Announcement Communication Training (IMPACT)”, Project 1 will conduct research to expand the role of the full primary care team including RNs and MAs in HPV vaccine recommendations, optimize standing orders, and evaluate an intervention in a cluster randomized clinical trial. https: // www. med.unc.edu/hpvcommunication

These postdoc positions will work closely with an interdisciplinary research team led by Dr. Noel Brewer and join a successful and award-winning cohort of scholars in his Health Cognition and Behavior Lab, https: // noelbrewer.web.unc.edu/. Our research uses theories from health and social psychology to understand health behaviors and create high-impact interventions. The team values high-quality research that has public health impact, a fun and collaborative working environment, and efforts to achieve equity. The postdocs will assist with study design, implementation, quantitative statistical analysis, and interpretation and publication of study findings. In addition, the postdocs will develop their own research questions related to their fellowship and will receive multidisciplinary training and mentorship from senior researchers at UNC.

These positions will start, ideally, between June and August 2023. Initial appointment is for one year with additional one-year appointments for up to three years, total. Postdocs will receive support in developing a federal grant proposal, and may be eligible for funds to travel to 1-2 conferences a year to present their research, and ongoing mentoring.

Applicants should submit (1) a cover letter indicating which of the two fields of research they are primarily interested in, the date they are available to start, and three references; (2) a curriculum vitae, and (3) a one- to two-page synopsis of their research interests, including a brief description of their career plans.
