The Department of Health Care Policy at Harvard Medical School seeks an experienced postdoctoral fellow with a specialty in health services research to lead and collaborate on studies related to mental health and addiction services, digital health, and policy issues under the mentorship of Prof. Haiden Huskamp.

Experience working with Medicaid, Medicare and/or commercial claims data, a deep understanding of analytical methods and statistics, and advanced programming skills are therefore desired. The role will also involve preparation of graphical displays of results and manuscripts for publication.
