About this position
The Leonard D. Schaeffer Center for Health Policy and Economics at the University of Southern California is offering one or more postdoctoral fellowships for scholars interested in health policy and health economics. The fellowship is designed to strengthen analytical skills, support the development of an independent research agenda, and provide formal and informal training in a collaborative research environment.
Postdoctoral scholars work closely with a primary mentor and join a center that brings together USC faculty across the Schaeffer Center, the Sol Price School of Public Policy, and the School of Pharmacy. The role emphasizes research training, participation in complex technical projects, and collaboration with distinguished researchers on work that advances the Center’s mission to improve value in health through evidence-based policy solutions and research excellence.
The center is codirected by Dana Goldman and Erin Trish, with Erin Duffy directing research training. The posting highlights a broad mentoring network of USC scholars across the center and notes that scholars may have protected time to complete outside projects. It also emphasizes the center’s strong track record of preparing fellows for careers in government, nonprofits, industry, and academia.
