T32 Predoctoral and Postdoctoral Fellowships – University of Florida

The NIDA-funded University of Florida (UF) Substance Abuse Training Center in Public Health T32 training program is accepting applications for both predoctoral and postdoctoral fellowships to begin between now and June 2025. Directed by Dr. Linda Cottler and co-directed by Dr. Sara Jo Nixon, the program is now in its 11th year and has a strong record of training diverse predoc and postdoc fellows for careers focused on population science and public health, emerging drug trends, surveillance, epidemiology, population science, big data, prevention, and interventions related to substance use and comorbidities, with an emphasis on social determinants of health and health disparities.

Training includes seminars, writing groups, instruction in manuscript and grant preparation, and a mentoring mosaic of faculty across relevant disciplines. An annual travel allowance is offered to facilitate attendance at conferences, for scientific presentations and networking, in addition to funds available for training-related expenses such as software. Postdoctoral fellows receive an annual stipend plus health benefits for 2 years. Predoctoral fellows receive an annual stipend, tuition, and health benefits, and they must be accepted to a relevant doctoral program at UF to work with a T32 faculty member.

Program deadlines differ; the Department of Epidemiology in which the program resides has a December 1 application deadline.

To be eligible for the T32, applicants must be a U.S. citizen, permanent resident, or noncitizen national.

Applications are considered on a rolling basis. The program values the diversity of its applicants.

Questions should be directed to Ms. Tamara Millay at tmillay@ufl.edu.
