Due to program infrastructure constraints, the MNCAM post-doctoral fellowship program will not continue beyond the 2007-2008 academic year and will not be accepting any new fellows at this time. Thank you for your interest and support of CAM and CAM clinical research. Please read on for a descriptin of our current program.

The CAM Clinical Research Post-Doctoral Fellowship is for people holding doctoral level clinical and/or research degrees who wish to pursue careers in CAM clinical research. The purpose of the Fellowship is to create a new generation of conventional and complementary health care providers who will have the knowledge, experience, and skills necessary to conduct high-quality clinical and health sciences research in CAM. Through coursework, seminars, direct research experience, and mentoring with leading CAM researchers, Fellows gain the tools they need to become successful CAM researchers and to compete effectively for funding in this field.

Basic eligibility criteria are:
• Holding a doctoral level degree granted by an accredited educational institution
AND
• U.S. Citizenship or permanent residence

The Fellowship is funded by the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM) of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Program administration is carried out centrally at the Berman Center for Outcomes & Clinical Research.

Physicians, nurses, pharmacists, chiropractors, naturopaths, and other health care providers with doctoral level degrees are all welcome, as are persons holding PhDs in any field with health and/or CAM applications (for example, epidemiology, counseling psychology, kinesiology, plant breeding, medical anthropology, educational psychology, etc).
