About this position
Yale School of Medicine’s Department of Psychiatry, through the Program for Recovery and Community Health, is recruiting a postdoctoral fellow for focused research training in competitive and integrated employment for people with psychiatric disabilities.
The two-year fellowship emphasizes recovery-oriented practice and participatory, community-engaged research, with particular attention to competitive employment as a central pathway to recovery. The postdoctoral fellow will gain hands-on experience by choosing opportunities to collaborate on ongoing research projects and will develop, conduct, and complete an independent research project with close supervision and mentorship from senior faculty.
The research training environment combines didactic, experiential, practical, and individualized components. Fellows can participate in lectures, seminars, discussion groups, and social support activities offered through the Yale School of Medicine Office for Postdoctoral Affairs and the Yale Center for Clinical Investigation. The fellowship is funded by the National Institute on Disability, Independent Living, and Rehabilitation Research, with Dr. Maria O’Connell serving as principal investigator.
