The project is led by Principal Investigator Dr. Sharelle Barber, Assistant Professor in the Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics and Director of the Ubuntu Center on Racism, Global Movements & Population Health Equity at the Drexel University Dornsife School of Public Health (DSPH).

    The fellow will have the opportunity to participate in educational and professional programs at DSPH from the different academic centers (including The Ubuntu Center) and departments throughout the school. The candidates will also be supported in developing grant applications for external funding.

    At DSPH, postdoctoral fellows receive a competitive salary and benefits package. In addition to the postdoctoral salary and benefits, the fellow will receive a research stipend to support and advance career goals by attending conferences, conducting pilot studies, publishing, and more.

    Essential Functions
    • Participation in on-going research projects and independent research.
    • Development of manuscripts for peer-reviewed publication.
    • Development of grant applications for external funding
    • Other duties as assigned.
    Required Qualifications

    • Strong quantitative methodological skills working with large scale cohorts.
    • Demonstrated commitment to antiracism scholarship and practice.
    • Interest in chronic disease epidemiology.
    • Record of or potential for scholarly productivity including publications in peer-reviewed journals and presentations at scientific meetings.
    • Record of community-centered approaches to antiracism scholarship.
    • Excellent verbal, written and interpersonal skills essential.
