The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine invites applications for postdoctoral research fellowships at the Behavioral Pharmacology Research Unit (BPRU) within the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences. Fellows receive research training in the clinical pharmacology of substance use including human laboratory drug administration studies and clinical treatment trials. Fellows benefit from experienced faculty and a NIDA-funded T32 training grant with a productive 40+ year history and over 130 graduates. Non-T32 supported training slots are also available for selected areas. Fellows work closely with faculty mentors to gain practical research experience and develop as productive independent scholars. Job responsibilities vary but generally include training in the management and supervision in the conduct of human laboratory and randomized trial studies, conducting data analyses, preparing manuscripts, and presenting at national and international conferences. Trainees from the program are highly successful, and have been hired by the FDA, DEA, NIH, research universities, teaching colleges, industry, and private businesses upon training completion.

Areas of Interest: Opportunities include research related to a variety of psychoactive drug classes, but the current position would be predominantly focused on research related to cannabis/cannabinoids, nicotine/tobacco, and/or alcohol. Research projects include human behavioral pharmacology studies that utilize a variety of research methodologies including acute drug administration, cognitive and psychomotor performance, simulated driving, regulatory science, observational and natural history assessments including ecological momentary assessment (EMA), toxicology/pharmacokinetics, and clinical trials. For more information about the Cannabis Science Laboratory, visit our website: https://jhcannabissciencelab.com. Funding for the position is supported by a NIDA-funded T32 training grant.
Eligibility: Eligible applicants for T32 slots must be a U.S. citizen or permanent resident. All applicants must have completed doctoral degree requirements (e.g., PhD, MD, DO, PsyD) prior to starting at the BPRU. Many training backgrounds are appropriate, including experimental or clinical psychology, pharmacology, toxicology, preclinical science, psychiatry or other medicine, neuroscience, nursing, public health, and social work. Prior experience with human or nonhuman research is appropriate. The BPRU is particularly interested in candidates who can contribute to the diversity and excellence of our research program. Applications from persons with disabilities, protected veterans, and persons underrepresented in science are strongly encouraged.
