The NIMH
awarded its first Intervention and Services Research Center dedicated to bipolar disorder across the life span to the Case School of Medicine in Cleveland, Ohio. The research center conducts projects that bridge science and service and improve clinical outcomes in underserved populations. These include persons of all ages with particular emphasis on children and adolescents, patients receiving care within the community mental health system, those who are abusing alcohol and/or drugs and youths who have been involved in the juvenile justice system.

A two-year post-doctoral research fellowship position is available to candidates who are board-eligible child/adolescent and adult psychiatrists, committed to developing an academic career in the therapeutics of bipolar disorder, including children at-risk, children, adolescents, adults and older adults.

Description

Candidates interested in dedicating themselves to a successful academic research career with emphasis on external funding from the NIMH are encouraged to apply. Fellows will be the recipients of 1) a specialized research curriculum; 2) specific training on methods and statistics; 3) mentoring by NIMH-funded program faculty with an emphasis on manuscript preparation, scientific presentation, and grant writing; and 4) experiential learning involving the operational management of an NIMH-funded research infrastructure.

The fellowship and research center are Co-Directed by Joseph R. Calabrese, MD (Director, Mood Disorders Program) and Robert L. Findling, MD (Director, Division of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry).
