Stanford CARE Team Science & Teaching Fellowships

About Our Programs

The Team Science Fellowship is a one-year fellowship program designed for doctoral or masters students and post-doctoral researchers to train them to become leaders in team science. Team Science Fellows with backgrounds in biostatistics, computer science, qualitative science, and epidemiology, lead multiple research teams around data science for Asian health precision medicine, mentor Stanford CARE Scholars, interface with multidisciplinary faculty, and learn the “Science” of Team Science. Team Science Fellows support our Stanford CARE Scholars teams in all aspects of their research projects and help get their work shared through publication in peer-reviewed journals and high-quality conferences. The Fellowship focuses on essential skills for team science leadership, including the management of multiple projects simultaneously, development of excellent interpersonal and scientific communication skills, and mentorship/teaching of junior researchers.

The Teaching Fellowship is a program designed for doctoral/masters students and post-doctoral researchers to learn how to become exemplary educators and coaches within a Team Science program. Specifically, Teaching Fellows will teach and coach within the Stanford CARE Scholars Program. Teaching Fellows will participate in a CARE Fellows curriculum, network with Stanford faculty, learn core teaching/mentorship skills, teach within the CARE Scholars curriculum, coach CARE Scholars on their research/presentations, and receive feedback on their teaching. This Fellowship prepares participants to become educational & research leaders in their field, in a team science setting.
