Description
Join the HJF Team
HJF is seeking a Research Scientist I to support The Suicide Care, Prevention, and Research Initiative (Suicide CPR Initiative) within the Medical and Clinical Psychology (MPS) department of the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences in Bethesda, Maryland. HJF provides scientific, technical, and programmatic support services to MPS.
The Research Scientist will: serve as a member of a multidisciplinary team of investigators, clinicians, and graduate students; develop and conduct research projects pertaining to military mental health and suicide prevention, intervention, and postvention; investigate the feasibility of applying a wide variety of scientific principles and concepts to potential interventions, programs, and problems; and contribute to the development of new research protocols.
This position will be in support of The Suicide CPR Initiative, previously known as the Laboratory for the Treatment of Suicide-Related Ideation and Behavior, established in 2006. Dr. Holloway, the Director of the Suicide CPR Initiative, is a clinical psychologist and an intervention scientist who is primarily interested in developing and empirically evaluating novel interventions for suicide risk reduction. The Suicide CPR Initiative is strategically in a unique position to focus on the problem of military suicide, given its origins at USU and its established partnerships with the Department of Defense and Veterans Affairs, as well as national and international collaborators and stakeholders. Overall, the mission of the Suicide CPR Initiative is threefold: CARE: To develop effective interventions targeted at reducing suicidal thoughts and/or behaviors; PREVENTION: To save lives through education, intervention, science, and advocacy; RESEARCH: To advance suicide intervention science and practice.
This is a 1-year position, with the possibility of extension given funding availability and the ongoing needs of the program.
Note: This site requires that the incumbent has lived in the US for three out of the past five years.
