About this position

The Health Promotion Research Center (HPRC) at the NCI Designated Stephenson Cancer Center, University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center (OUHSC), is seeking two Postdoctoral Fellows for a 2-3 year appointment. The positions are ideal for those aspiring to become independent academic researchers in mobile health (mHealth), health behavior change, cancer prevention, and health disparities. The starting salary is $70,000 per year, plus a $5,000 annual travel and training fund.

Fellows will work with Professor Michael Businelle on multiple completed and ongoing NIH-funded research studies that use smartphones and sensors to collect data and deliver real-time interventions to reduce unhealthy behaviors such as smoking, at-risk drinking, and anxiety/depression. The research leverages the mHealth platform to develop and test automated Just-in-Time Adaptive Interventions (JITAI), enabling rapid ecological momentary assessments and adaptive interventions. The mHealth resource has supported over 110 studies, including more than 60 NIH-funded projects.

Responsibilities include manuscript preparation, data analysis, and participation in studies addressing smoking, alcohol use, cannabis use, case management, anxiety/depression, and best practices for conducting EMA studies. Fellows will receive training in advanced quantitative and statistical approaches, such as multi-level modeling and structural equation modeling, as well as grant writing and clinical trial methods. Access to research and training funds is provided.

Applicants must have a doctoral degree in behavioral sciences, public health, psychology, clinical psychology, or a related field. Excellent writing skills are required, and experience with diverse populations, tobacco research, health disparities, and quantitative methods is preferred but not required. The position offers a competitive salary, benefits, and a supportive research environment in Oklahoma City, which boasts a low cost of living and vibrant cultural scene.
