The CCEP trains, mentors, and develops fellows through two major activities: a specialized core curriculum and hands-on mentored research experience.
Throughout, the CCEP emphasizes training that is flexible and tailored to meet each fellow’s needs, as well as a multidisciplinary and collaborative approach to cancer prevention and control research.
Deadline: Feb. 3, 2025
Successful applicants will have a strong record of achievement, publications in cancer prevention and control, and a PhD, MD, or equivalent degree in behavioral science, epidemiology, nutrition, public health, or a related field.
The CCEP offers training to: recent doctorates (PhDs, DrPHs, or their equivalent); more experienced doctorally-prepared applicants wishing to change their research focus; and physicians, nurses, and other clinicians who have completed their clinical training.
Fellows generally receive two to three years of funding, including an annual stipend. Additional allowances include health insurance and support for tuition, travel and research expenses.
Applicants must be U.S. citizens or permanent residents. Individuals must be highly motivated, possess initiative and a desire to learn and expand their interests and expertise.
