About the TOPS T32 Postdoctoral Fellowship

 

Research investigation in population science is essential to ensure that discoveries from molecular medicine and clinical trials translate to routine practice and ultimately decrease the population-level burden of cancer.

​

The Dana-Farber Harvard Cancer Center’s (DF/HCC) T32 Training in Oncology Population Sciences (TOPS) program will equip postdoctoral fellows with the skills necessary to evaluate cancer care quality and effectiveness, and to develop, test and implement interventions to improve care delivery thereby ensuring that T1/T2 discoveries translate across the T3/T4 bridge to achieve maximal impact on population health.
 

Postdoctoral fellows will pursue a two-year program of mentored research, coursework and professional skills training that supports innovation and leverages the expertise of DF/HCC faculty to prepare them for independent investigation in cancer-focused population science.

Because of restrictions associated with the funding mechanism, only citizens or noncitizen nationals of the United States  (possessing a "green card") can be considered.
