About this position
This fellowship at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in Atlanta provides two fellows with structured exposure to occupational health, emergency preparedness, and public health response operations under mentor guidance. The opportunity is centered on learning how CDC supports responder readiness and deployer health activities rather than serving in a staff or independent clinical role.
The fellowship offers hands-on observational and mentor-guided learning across several interconnected areas. Fellows may observe mailbox management and routing of responder requests, become familiar with medical-clearance workflows, and review de-identified or authorized clearance-related examples. They may also learn about recurring reporting processes and attend relevant meetings as appropriate.
Another major component of the experience is interdisciplinary coordination. Fellows can observe communication among occupational health nurses, healthcare providers, emergency response personnel, safety staff, and other partners involved in deployment medical-clearance processes. The project also provides exposure to emergency response exercises, after-action learning, and planning discussions, including the roles of the Provider Team Lead, Emergency Response Coordinator, and other collaborators.
The fellowship also emphasizes emergency preparedness, policy, and response. Fellows may review occupational health emergency response policies, guidance, and standard operating materials, and learn how these are updated as public health and operational needs evolve. The work includes exposure to deployer health-monitoring approaches for high-consequence pathogen responses such as Ebola and Marburg.
In addition, fellows may gain experience with Cority and other occupational health information system activities, including workflow, inventory, issue identification, IT coordination, and document-update processes. They may also participate in Health Days planning discussions and other mentor-guided occupational health projects within CDC’s occupational health program environment.
The opportunity is supervised by Brandis Terrell at CDC. The announcement indicates a structured learning environment with a strong focus on operational preparedness, occupational health coordination, and program development within a major U.S. public health agency.
