The Institute for Firearm Injury Prevention at the University of Michigan was awarded a National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD)-funded T32 Training Grant in 2022. This grant addresses the critical need to build a continuous pipeline of research scientists focused on addressing the leading cause of pediatric mortality by establishing the nation’s first post-doctoral program providing research training on the prevention of firearm injuries among children and teens.

The overarching goal of this program is to build a diverse cadre of research scholars with two-year multidisciplinary training in the science of pediatric firearm injury prevention that will allow them to develop academic careers as independent research scientists making significant contributions to our understanding of this public health disease, as well as to developing and rigorously testing evidence-based prevention strategies. Learn more about the program.

Applications for positions beginning in 2025 will open in fall 2024. Learn more: https://firearminjury.umich.edu/education-training/postdoctoral-fellowships/
