The Hilda and Preston Davis Foundation is pleased to support its
Postdoctoral Fellowship Program in Eating Disorders Research. By
attracting young scientists to the field, each fellowship may lead to
a lifetime career contribution to understanding the biological causes
of eating disorders. The long term goal of the program is to
accelerate medical research discoveries that will lead to improved
therapies for anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa. Research areas of
interest include but are not limited to neural pathways of feeding
behavior in animal models; molecular genetic analysis of relevant
neural circuit assembly and function; testing of new chemical
compounds that might be used in animal models as experimental
treatments; and brain imaging technologies that identify neurochemical
pathways in patients with these disorders. Clinical psychotherapeutic
studies, medication trials and obesity research are currently outside
the scope of this Program.<br>
<br>
Up to five three-year fellowships ranging from $43,000 - $63,000 per
year, inclusive of a $3,000 expense allowance will be awarded to
fellows who have completed no more than three years of postdoctoral
research training as of the funding start date. The awards will
support postdoctoral fellows working in nonprofit academic or research
institutions in the United States.<br>
