> Oklahoma City announces a post-doctoral fellowship opportunity (1-3 
> year appointments) for a fellow who aspires to become an independent 
> researcher in the area of marijuana use and related health behavior.
>
> The fellow will work primarily with Dr. Amy Cohn and her team to 
> conduct laboratory, experimental, and/or epidemiological research in 
> areas relevant to marijuana use that could inform marijuana policy, 
> prevention, and intervention, with a focus on at-risk and vulnerable 
> populations, including youth, young adults, and individuals with 
> mental health and/or substance use comorbidities. Dr. Cohn’s current 
> NIH-funded research focuses on understanding young adult appeal for 
> flavored tobacco product use, as well as the co-use of marijuana with 
> alcohol and tobacco. Dr. Cohn’s research uses a variety of 
> methodological approaches, including ecological momentary assessment, 
> secondary analysis of large population-based surveys, laboratory 
> topography studies, behavioral economic paradigms, and computer-based 
> experimental tasks like the Implicit Association Task. The fellow will 
> also have access to training and research opportunities at the OU 
> *PRIME**(*Psychological Research on Information and Media Effects) Lab 
> in the Center for Applied Social Research at the University of 
> Oklahoma Gaylord College of Journalism and Mass Communication. The OU 
> Prime Lab is specifically designed to conduct cutting-edge research on 
> how individuals cognitively and emotionally process media and health
