Description
The New Jersey Department of Health offers this fellowship through the Governor’s Council for Medical Research and Treatment of Autism. It supports promising predoctoral researchers early in their training as they conduct dissertation research on the origins, mechanisms, or treatment of autism spectrum disorders (ASD). The fellowship pairs a research project with mentored training intended to prepare the applicant for an independent research career.
Projects must address a selected objective from the Interagency Autism Coordinating Committee strategic plan, as listed in the fellowship RFA. The Council particularly encourages research on health equity, community-prioritized questions, social determinants of health, and priority areas of autism.
