The University of Mississippi Medical Center (UMMC) and the Center for Advancement of Youth is recruiting for a 12-month postdoctoral fellowship position in Perinatal and Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health. Opportunity for extension to a 2-year fellowship is possible, and preferable, pending goals of the fellow and satisfactory progress in the training program. The fellowship position is supported by funding from a grant from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration. The project, Perinatal to Preschool (P2P) is located within the Department of Psychiatry & Human Behavior. The aim of P2P is to establish, implement, and evaluate a continuum of behavioral healthcare services (promotion, prevention, screening and intervention) for infants and preschoolers with high-risk term and preterm deliveries, beginning with the prenatal and post-natal periods, through expansion and dissemination of evidence-based interventions UMMC, via telehealth, and through state-wide dissemination and implementation efforts.

 

Program activities and training areas:

The fellow receives extensive research and clinical experience and skills related to the following areas: (1) Perinatal mental health, including post-partum mood, anxiety, and high-risk pregnancy related stress; (2) Caregiver and infant screening antenatally and postnatally within the UMMC Neonatal Intensive Care Unit; (3) Developmental evaluations (e.g., Bayley Scales of Infant Development) in the NICU high-risk follow-up clinic; (4) Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT) and related promotion/prevention strategies such as Child-Adult Relationship Enhancement (CARE) for schools; and (5) dissemination and implementation efforts for evidence-based interventions for early childhood based on PCIT and UMMC’s first ever perinatal services clinic. Mentoring and support for publications, grant writing, program evaluation, supervision of externs, and licensure eligibility will be provided and the Postdoctoral Fellow is expected to complete a first author publication. Continuing education support ($1000) will be provided and the grant will support active learning/research dissemination and conference travel as permitting.

The fellow plays a key role in research, evaluation, and clinical activities. Fellows will spend approximately 50% effort (negotiable) in clinical service delivery through perinatal mental health screening/consultation/intervention in UMMC’s maternal-fetal medicine clinic and/or NICU, performing collaborative care on multidisciplinary teams and developmental evaluations on medically complex infants and toddlers in the high-risk follow-up clinic, as well as performing PCIT-related interventions on an outpatient basis. Previous experience with perinatal mood or anxiety disorders, developmental evaluations and PCIT is highly desired, but not necessary, for the position. The remaining 50% effort will be expected to include assisting the Principal Investigators (Drs. Dustin Sarver & Courtney Walker) in protected research time, coordination of grant activities, and program evaluation and related scholarly activities. The exact distribution is negotiable given the goals of the fellow towards additional research versus clinical activities.

This fellowship focuses on the expansion of psychology services and clinical research within the Richard D.

Patients receive comprehensive maternal/fetal assessments, close monitoring and prenatal care, and give birth in the Garbose Family Special Delivery Unit (SDU) at CHOP, the world’s first obstetrics unit housed within a pediatric hospital. These babies immediately transition to either the neonatal/infant or cardiac intensive care units. Clinical practice focuses on parents, as they may experience perinatal mental health challenges often exacerbated when faced with a complication in pregnancy, subsequent neonatal intensive care hospitalization or having to care for a child with complex medical needs. 

 

Additional training rotations will be available to support infants and families within the newborn intensive care units (N/IICU, CICU), neurodevelopmental follow-up assessments (Cardiac Kids Developmental Follow-Up Program, High-Risk Developmental Follow-Up Clinic), and other early childhood clinics (PCIT, Young Child Clinic).

Opportunities for early childhood neuropsychological assessment are also available.

The Project Director will need to have strong writing, communication and organizational skills, experience in public speaking, and strong management and oversight skills. The Project Director will be the lead for all major planning meetings with staff, partners, and stakeholders, and delegate appropriate tasks that meet the needs to the project’s overall objectives and goals.
