resource" for STD training, and we aim to maintain our commitment to research
training on all STDs including HIV/AIDS infection. Opportunities available for pre-and post-doctoral training Postdoctoral applicants must be training with program faculty in these schools: MDs are usually affiliated with the Infectious Diseases, Adolescent Medicine, or Obstetrics & Gynecology fellowship programs; PhDs are working with Program faculty. Prior to application, predoctoral and postdoctoral applicants must have established a formal research relationship with their training mentor and have developed a proposed plan for their research. The mentor must confirm that they will support the applicant's research for the period of their fellowship. Eligible applicants must be a US Citizen or have permanent resident
status in the US. Research training is provided in five component tracks: • Bacterial STD Research • Epidemiology and Public Health STD & AIDS Research • Sociobehavioral Research on STD& AIDS • International STD &AIDS Research Core Curriculum In addition to individualized research experience, the training program includes
a core curriculum, required of all program trainees: Support Pre and Postdoctoral positions provide full medical and dental benefits for
trainees. Stipends are paid at the NIH NRSA stipend level for the fiscal during
in which the trainee starts his/her appointment or is reappointed. Postdoctoral
stipends are commensurate with the number of years of postdoctoral experience.
