The goal of the grant is to prepare future NIH scientists to conduct research to (1) elucidate the processes of change in drinking behavior, (2) develop and test effective methods to effect change through self-change, treatment and indicated prevention, and (3) develop and test models to disseminate knowledge of effective interventions to diverse populations. Postdoctoral fellows work with one of the core training faculty: Barbara S. McCrady (PI and training program director), Eric Claus, Jon Houck, Theresa Moyers, Matthew Pearson, J. Scott Tonigan, Kamilla Venner, Katie Witkiewitz, or W. Gill Woodall.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-size:12.8000001907349px"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial,sans-serif"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-size:12.8000001907349px"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial,sans-serif">In anticipation of renewal funding, <b>we have three openings to support postdoctoral fellows in the 2015-2016 academic year</b>.
