 Position Summary
The Bursky School of Public Health at Washington University is pleased to offer a full-time, two-year Postdoctoral Fellowship for the 2027-2029 years. The fellowship is designed for emerging scholars and scientists who are passionate about interdisciplinary science in shared decision making and health communication within health systems. The fellow will have an opportunity to work closely with leading faculty within a unique environment that is committed to advancing science and scholarship and improving health care delivery.
For example, projects can explore ways to improve patient portal communication to align with clinical evidence and patient needs, or implementation of decision support for aging populations with varying symptom presentation. The fellowship begins in the summer of 2027 with a start date of July 1.
Bursky School of Public Health
Washington University launched the School of Public Health in January 2025 – the University’s first new School in 100 years. The School is led by the inaugural Dean, Dr. Sandro Galea, and is at the center of Washington University’s aspirations for interdisciplinary scholarship, education, and translation of the work.
With the Dean of the Bursky School of Public Health also serving as the Vice Provost for Interdisciplinary Initiatives, there is a moment-in-time opportunity to transform not only how academic public health is conducted worldwide, but also how WashU’s breadth of scholarship across disciplines is conducted and applied.
In its first year, the School welcomed students, applied for accreditation, recruited faculty, appointed secondary faculty, and executed convenings to encourage public health dialogue and raise the profile of the School nationally. The school has an ambitious 4x4 plan and is working swiftly to become a leading school.
