About this position
The NIH Disability Health Research Program Fellowship at the National Institutes of Health is an immersive research learning experience focused on disability health, program planning, and policy-related science administration. The fellowship is designed to advance innovative and responsible research that promotes the health and well-being of people with disabilities, while supporting NIH’s strategic work in disability health research.
Fellows join a multidisciplinary mentoring environment with health scientist administrators, health science policy analysts, and data scientists who work on disability health research and research program planning and evaluation. The experience emphasizes how research portfolios are stimulated, planned, directed, and evaluated within a federal science agency, with opportunities to explore NIH databases and tools, assess program metrics and indicators, and examine collaborative research initiatives.
The project also highlights inclusion of people with disabilities in clinical research, disability data management and sharing, training and career development, and engagement with disability communities. The selected fellow will work in Bethesda, Maryland, within NIH’s in-person or hybrid environment and gain insight into how evidence and trends inform future research opportunities and program effectiveness.
