NYU Postdoctoral Research Training: the Population Health Science Scholars Program and Fellowship in Academic General Pediatrics

The NYU Population Health Science Scholars Postdoctoral Program, supported in part by a HRSA NRSA T32 Primary Care Research Training award, is a 2-year research training program for MDs and PhDs. The program prepares scholars for academic careers and leadership at the interface of health care delivery and health services research. Scholars graduate with the methodologic skill, institutional savvy, and social capital to bridge the gap between real-world, health care delivery systems and the communities they serve. Fellows conduct mentored research with faculty in the Departments of Population Health, Pediatrics, and Medicine. They can complete NYU's Masters of Science Degree in Clinical Investigation, or take methodologic courses tailored to their learning needs. Under NIH NRSA T32 rules, “the individual to be trained must be a citizen or a noncitizen national of the United States or have been lawfully admitted for permanent residence at the time of appointment”.

The starting salary for postdoctoral research trainees at NYU is $70,000. The salary range listed is for full-time employment and does not include incentive compensation or benefits. Actual salary may not fall within the listed salary range; consideration will be made for experience, training, hospital/community need, and other factors.

Pediatricians who are accepted into the Population Health Science Scholars Program may serve as fellows in the Academic Pediatric Association-accredited NYU Department of Pediatrics Fellowship in Academic General Pediatrics, devoting up to 25% time in clinical work in pediatric primary care and the newborn nursery at Bellevue Hospital. The salary range for Academic General Pediatrics Fellows at NYU combines the postdoctoral research trainee salary with additional compensation for clinical activities, and is equivalent to the institutional salary range for clinical subspecialty fellows at the PGY4 level and above, currently $91,160- $101,760.

NYU Grossman School of Medicine is an equal opportunity and affirmative action employer committed to diversity and inclusion in all aspects of recruiting and employment.
