Postdoctoral Fellowship (T32 Cancer Health Drivers Program)

The Cancer Health Drivers Training Program at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill offers postdoctoral training on cross-cutting health disparity issues across the cancer continuum, from etiology and primary prevention to survivorship. The program includes the major cancers and addresses risk factors, epidemiological bases of disparities, detection, epidemiology, research methods, prevention and control, promotion, screening, communication, community-based participatory research and policy.

Fellows receive up to two years of funding. At the end of each year, each fellow’s performance is evaluated and funding for the next year depends on the progress made. Fellows are assigned faculty mentors in more than one discipline and benefit from the UNC’s highly collaborative, productive and multidisciplinary faculty.
