About this position

Vanderbilt University Medical Center’s Department of Neurological Surgery is seeking a full-time Postdoctoral Research Fellow for a research fellowship in pediatric neurosurgery outcomes and global neurosurgery.

Approximately half of the fellowship will focus on pediatric neurosurgery outcomes research. The fellow will lead and contribute to retrospective and prospective studies involving conditions such as brain tumors, hydrocephalus, congenital disorders, neurovascular disease, and traumatic brain injury. Work will include examining surgical outcomes, complications, treatment effectiveness, healthcare utilization, and long-term patient outcomes, as well as developing clinical research databases and patient registries.

The remaining effort will support global neurosurgery research and program development through the Vanderbilt Global Neurosurgery Program. Projects will address disparities in neurosurgical access, workforce capacity, surgical delivery, and clinical outcomes in low- and middle-income countries. The fellow will coordinate research with international neurosurgical partners and academic institutions, contribute to research capacity building and educational initiatives, and evaluate neurosurgical training and service-delivery programs.

Research activities span study design, literature review, research protocols, electronic medical record abstraction, patient recruitment, informed consent, data management, statistical analysis, regulatory documentation, manuscript preparation, conference presentations, and grant development. The fellow will manage multiple projects, lead weekly lab meetings, and help advance studies from conception through publication.

Michael C. Dewan, Associate Professor of Neurological Surgery and Academic Director of the Global Neurosurgery Program, will provide close mentorship. The fellow will collaborate with faculty, trainees, research staff, the Monroe Carell Jr. Children’s Hospital at Vanderbilt, the Vanderbilt Institute for Global Health, and national and international partners including NeuroKids, InterSurgeon, and the ISPN.

The fellowship is designed to provide rigorous preparation for academic neurosurgery, related clinical research careers, and, where relevant, future neurosurgical residency training, with opportunities for increasing research independence, collaborative scholarship, and scientific presentations.
