Please direct questions or inquiries to srcsearches@umich.edu. Reference #82754. Two postdoctoral positions are available; funded by a NIH/NIA Grant on Retrospective Life History Data in the Health and Retirement Study (HRS). The fellowships are initially for one year with a possible additional one-year extension. The research fellows will work with the project team at ISR/SRC and PI (Dr. Jacqui Smith) to assist with one or more of the following projects:
The research fellows will assist with: 1) the publication and analyses of existing and newly-collected HRS life history data; 2) linkages to relevant archival data (e.g., quality of school and college education; life course exposures to environmental risks; O*Net taxonomy of job types and tasks); and 3) the organization of project workshops, consultations, and collaborative research meetings. The research fellows are expected to initiate new manuscripts using available HRS life history data, contribute actively to ongoing analyses and manuscripts, and to participate in the activities of the research group, the Center, and the Institute of Social Research.
The stipend will be commensurate with experience and based on levels established by NIH and the University of Michigan. For more information about the project group, HRS, and ISR see: https://aging.isr.umich.edu , http://hrsonline.isr.umich.edu/ and http://www.isr.umich.edu/
