Position Summary
The Teen Program Of Weight and Eating Research (Teen POWER) at the Indiana University School of Medicine is seeking qualified candidates for a research-focused Postdoctoral Psychology Fellow position. Patient-oriented treatment research funded by NIH as well as pilot studies will provide advanced clinical-research opportunities for individuals interested in academic careers working with eating/weight disorders or adolescent behavioral health. This full-time position will involve approximately 50% research and 50% clinical intervention (therapy/assessment) delivered in the context of clinical trials.
Clinical work (50%) will involve serving as a research clinician performing assessments on an NIH-funded randomized controlled trial treating adolescents with binge eating. The postdoc will receive intensive training and on-going supervision in the administration of diagnostic and semi-structured interviews (e.g., Eating Disorder Examination) as well as the delivery of evidence-based (CBT, IHBLT) treatments for eating/weight disorders. Additional pilot studies are planned and will involve similar activities.
Research work (50%) will involve data analysis, preparing data reports for grant progress reports and new grant applications, and submitting research papers for publications and conferences. Data from numerous completed treatment and longitudinal studies on eating/weight disorders will also be available for research projects and publications. The postdoc will also supervise/mentor research staff (e.g., postbac and graduate student research assistants) in data management activities.
Candidates must have a doctoral degree in psychology, completed an APA-approved internship, and experience with eating/weight disorders and adolescents/families. Experience with data management systems (REDCap, Qualtrics), strong statistical skills and experiences, and excellent writing skills (including publications in peer-reviewed journals) are required. This position is tailor-made for loan repayment program applications and is ideal for persons pursuing academic clinical-research careers, with a focus on research (e.g., tenure-track faculty) or clinical (e.g., staff psychologist or clinical service director). Intensive mentored opportunities exist for publishing and for grant-writing.
