Postdoctoral Fellowship in School-Based Interventions for ADHD and Disruptive Behavior Problems at San Diego State University<\/h3>\t\t\t

 <\/p>\n

Applications are invited for a postdoctoral fellowship position focused on using implementation science and digital health to support school-based interventions for ADHD and disruptive behavior problems under the supervision of\u00a0<\/span>Dr. Miguel Villodas<\/span><\/a>\u00a0in the Department of Psychology at San Diego State University. Postdoctoral fellows will also have opportunities for affiliation with the\u00a0<\/span>Child & Adolescent Services Research Center (CASRC)<\/span><\/a>, UCSD\u00a0<\/span>ImplementatioN Science and Team Effectiveness in Practice (IN STEP) Children\u2019s Mental Health Research<\/span><\/a> Center, and the SDSU <\/span>HealthLINK Center for Transdisciplinary Health Disparities Research<\/span><\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The postdoctoral fellow will have the opportunity to contribute to multiple school-based projects testing novel strategies to enhance evidence-based practice implementation in schools that support predominantly minoritized and underserved children and their families. The goal of this research is to improve access to evidence-based care for ADHD and disruptive behavior challenges among populations that are least likely to receive services, such as Black, Latine, and low-SES families. Current projects examine the use of team-effectiveness research and digital health technology to support school-based intervention implementation. Projects are being conducted in collaboration with <\/span>Dr. Linda Pfiffner<\/span><\/a> (UC San Francisco) and multiple school districts in Northern and Southern California.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The postdoctoral fellow will work closely with Dr. Villodas and the SDSU and UCSF research teams. Their primary responsibilities will include one or more of the following activities:<\/span><\/p>\n
