About this position
This fellowship is based within the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta and is hosted by the Division of Diabetes Translation, specifically the Surveillance, Epidemiology, Economics and Statistics Branch. The project offers training in the analysis of large population-based and healthcare databases to support CDC’s work on diabetes burden, prevention, treatment, and outcomes.
The fellow will participate in epidemiologic and statistical research on diabetes prevalence, incidence, complications, healthcare utilization, trends, and mortality in the United States. The work emphasizes real-world public health data sources and combines surveillance, administrative, and electronic health data to study patterns of disease and care across demographic, socioeconomic, and geographic populations.
Research activities include analyses of national surveillance datasets and healthcare databases, applying advanced statistical and machine learning approaches, conducting systematic reviews and meta-analyses, and supporting longitudinal studies of disease progression and survival. The opportunity also includes preparation of scientific manuscripts, reports, abstracts, and presentations, along with mentorship and interdisciplinary collaboration with CDC scientists.
The position is designed for doctoral-level trainees interested in epidemiology, biostatistics, and population health research in a major U.S. public health agency environment.
