About this position
This fellowship is based in the Division of Laboratory Sciences at the National Center for Environmental Health within the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta. The participant will work in the Newborn Screening and Molecular Biology Branch, on the Partner Engagement team, supporting efforts that help states maintain reliable newborn screening services for serious but treatable conditions.
The project centers on strengthening newborn screening through project development, health services research, data modernization, and partner engagement. Working under the guidance of public health scientists, the fellow will contribute to activities that advance early detection in newborns and improve how screening efforts are supported, documented, and communicated.
Training experience includes developing and evaluating initiatives, monitoring project activities, summarizing accomplishments and outcomes, and creating communications for public health audiences. The participant will also build experience with public health datasets, project proposals, abstracts, presentations, reports, and data visualization, while collaborating with state public health programs, national organizations, families, and other partners.
The fellowship offers an applied public health environment focused on newborn screening program support and evidence-informed practice within CDC’s laboratory sciences and partner engagement setting.
