Julia Finkelstein

Cornell University’s Division of Nutritional Sciences is offering an NIH-funded postdoctoral fellowship in Maternal and Child Nutrition (MCN). The position is part of an NIH T32 training program that brings together faculty across nutrition-related disciplines, including molecular nutrition, human nutrition and metabolism, community nutrition, and international nutrition. The fellow will work with one or more of the MCN training program faculty across Cornell campuses, contributing to original research in nutrition and health for mothers and children. The program emphasizes the development of research manuscripts, career development, and progress toward independent funding and an independent research career. In addition to research, the fellowship includes opportunities for classroom-based training and professional development in teaching, grant writing, scientific communication, and leadership. The role is based in Ithaca, New York, within Cornell’s Division of Nutritional Sciences and its broader training environment.
