Postdoctoral Positions

They are sponsoring a three-year postdoctoral fellowship in the neuroscience of aging and addiction.  The fellowship will emphasize clinical and research training in the broad theme of the behavioral neuroscience of addiction in aging populations. Fellowship recipients will join specific laboratories that investigate mechanisms underlying the connection between addiction and aging, using both clinical approaches in humans and/or animal models, depending on their interests and expertise. Clinical research opportunities will focus on the refinement of clinical and research skills in phenomenological assessment (clinical diagnosis, neuropsychiatric evaluations, neuropsychological examination, analysis of epidemiological data on drug use in older populations) and human neurobiology (including genetics, neurophysiology and neuroimaging).   Basic research opportunities will focus on animal models of addiction and aging, neurobiology of behavior, molecular biology, genetics, cell biology, and biochemistry. There are opportunities to design translational research projects within the clinical and basic science laboratories.  Courses and seminars in research design, research methodologies, and neuroscience will be tailored to the individual.

This program is designed for physicians who have completed their residency (e.g., Internal Medicine, Psychiatry, Neurology, or other) or PhDs in a relevant area (e.g. psychology, neuroscience). The program will prepare individuals to pursue a career in academic neuropsychiatry, behavioral neurology of addiction, and management and care of older persons affected by addiction. Transition to a faculty position at Johns Hopkins may be possible for fellows who are successful. The Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center is a rich research environment with faculty strengths in basic and clinical neuroscience in addiction, aging, geriatric psychiatry, and neuropsychiatry.  This program is directed by Jean Lud Cadet, M.D. (NIDA), Nigel Greig, Ph.D. (NIA), and Gwenn Smith, Ph.D. (Johns Hopkins). Additional faculty members from NIDA, NIA, and Johns Hopkins are actively involved in the program.

Applications from individuals who are members of under-represented populations in science, have disabilities, or are from an economically disadvantaged background are strongly encouraged to apply.

Questions about the fellowship program can be addressed to any of the directors:  Jean Lud Cadet (Jean.Cadet@nih.gov), Nigel Greig (Nigel.Greig@nih.gov), Gwenn Smith (gsmith95@jhmi.edu).  Interested individuals should direct a letter of intent, copy of CV, and three letters of recommendation from persons familiar with him/her to Ramona Conroy, at the following address: NIDA/IRP, Molecular Neuropsychiatry Research Branch, 251 Bayview Boulevard, Suite 200, Baltimore, MD 21224.
