The two-year Bell Fellowship is an interdisciplinary, postdoctoral training program designed for researchers and practitioners in the fields of population sciences and/or population health. Through self-directed research, selected candidates examine a broad range of critical issues, mostly from within the HCPDS’s focal areas: 1) aging societies; 2) youth, families, and social mobility; 3) work, policy, & well-being; and 4) population dynamics of climate change. In addition to research and writing, fellows participate in weekly seminars, professional development and other skill building activities, plus communications & media skills training.
