Opportunity Details

Cancer prevention, including early detection, is essential to reducing the public health burden of cancer in the United States. The CPFP was created in 1987 to train a multidisciplinary scientific workforce dedicated to prevention with intersecting expertise in epidemiology and research translation. The CPFP offers postdoctoral research opportunities in basic, clinical, implementation and dissemination, population, and data sciences. Our fellows conduct investigations across the spectrum of prevention research, for all cancers, from discovery to application.

The Cancer Prevention Fellowship Program provides a structured postdoctoral experience designed to support research and professional development. As a fellow, you will have the opportunity to:

  • Initiate an independent research program with guidance from NCI investigators.
  • Increase performance through fellowship coaching and training.
  • Join a cohort of postdoctoral collaborators in varied disciplines.
  • Receive specialized training in epidemiology and biostatistics
  • Receive a competitive stipend with relocation assistance, health insurance, and travel benefits.
