About this position
The Eli Coleman Institute for Sexual and Gender Health (ISGH) at the University of Minnesota Medical School is inviting applications for two postdoctoral fellowships beginning Fall 2027: the Randi and Fred Ettner Fellowship in Transgender Health and the Michael E. Metz Fellowship in Couples’ Sexual Health.
This is a clinical/research postdoctoral opportunity focused on sexual health, gender health, transgender health, couples/relationship therapy, sex therapy, and related research. Fellows will join a vibrant team of faculty and postdoctoral fellows and will have the chance to develop their own research line, collaborate on faculty projects, present at scientific conferences, and prepare manuscripts for peer-reviewed journals.
Training areas include Compulsive Sexual Behavior, Sex and Relationship Therapy, and Lifespan Gender Health. The program is designed to balance clinical care, supervision, didactics, teaching, and research. Fellows may work with diverse patient populations through the Fairview Sexual and Gender Health Clinic, including children, adolescents, disabled individuals, and patients with co-occurring mental health concerns.
Applicants must have completed a Ph.D. or Psy.D. in Counseling Psychology, Clinical Psychology, or Family/Couples Therapy before the fellowship start date, and should have interest in and/or experience with sexual and/or gender-related therapy. Candidates should indicate which fellowship they prefer.
The fellowship is a full-time, two-year appointment with an expected annual stipend of $63,480, plus excellent benefits and a professional travel stipend. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis starting December 7, 2026, and the position remains open until filled.
Apply online through the University of Minnesota job portal and submit a cover letter and resume/CV. For fellowship details, see the institute’s fellowship page.
