Freelance Biomedical Data Analyst Jobs in Delaware

The Center for Healthcare Delivery Science (CHDS) at Nemours Children's Health invites applications for our Postdoctoral Research Fellowship Program. CHDS is a team of scientists who partner with healthcare systems, schools, and communities. Through these collaborations we aim to uncover, investigate, and transform how children and families can thrive. We are seeking individuals interested in clinical research who aspire to academic research careers. 

CHDS is led by Drs. Anne Kazak, Melissa Alderfer and Susana Patton and spans the Nemours Enterprise with center faculty and staff in Delaware and Florida. Our five areas of research focus include: 1) Improving delivery of care to children with medical conditions and their families; 2) Focusing on health for all children, through addressing barriers to optimal health and differences in access to care; 3) Identifying and addressing key psychosocial and behavioral factors that impact health; 4) Addressing the diverse needs of youth, families and pediatric health care providers; and 5) Developing and evaluating technology-enhanced interventions. 

CHDS fellowships are two years and are open to individuals from a variety of backgrounds (e.g., psychology, nursing, public health). For 2026-2028, we have two fellowship positions: one in Wilmington, DE and one in Jacksonville or Orlando, FL. Fellows are paired with a primary research faculty mentor within CHDS and may also collaborate with other Nemours faculty. The DE position is focused on obesity and disordered eating. Areas of focus for the other position is based on interest and experience. All positions are primarily research based. If applicable, up to 20% supervised clinical time is allotted to accrue hours for licensure. Fellows will have the opportunity to: 

Work with their mentor to develop an area of research focus within the scope of CHDS.
