This position will be primarily involved in two NIH-funded research projects: 1) an epidemiological data harmonization study on the socioecology of sexual minority stigma and sexual minority mental health and 2) an intervention study focusing on suicide prevention among sexual and gender minority youth. This is a two-year position, with opportunities for extension pending availability of funding. Start date is summer 2023. The Postdoctoral Scholar will interact with multidisciplinary research labs focused on LGBTQ+ health, clinical psychology, health behavior, social and psychiatric epidemiology, and intervention development.

Serving as Project (Co-)Director, the Postdoctoral Research Scholar will oversee day-to-day operations of the two research projects. This individual will report directly to the PIs for the respective projects. The Scholar will be involved in data management and access, harmonization, construction of structural stigma indices, and data integration and analysis, as well as supervise the full-time research coordinators in general project management, supervising of research assistants, and IRB/NIH documentation, correspondence, and compliance reports. The Scholar will also lead weekly project meetings and work with the Co-Investigators on data management, analysis, and manuscript preparation.
In addition to the role of Project (Co-)Director of the projects (i.e., split equally across the projects), the Scholar will have the opportunity to pursue independent data analysis/manuscripts on multiple existing datasets focused on patient navigation, suicide risk, and sexual orientation/gender identity health disparities, more broadly. The Scholar will also have opportunities for mentorship in career development, research methodology, teaching, and grant writing, and will be encouraged to develop their own F, K, or other career development award applications. Structured mentorship will be available from Drs.
