The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) is committed to improving health and health equity in the United States. In partnership with others, RWJF is working to develop a Culture of Health rooted in equity that provides every individual with a fair and just opportunity to thrive, no matter who they are, where they live, or how much money they have. RWJF focuses on identifying and addressing barriers to health, including all forms of discrimination, such as structural racism, sexism, ableism, and prejudice based on sexual orientation.
The RWJF Health Policy Fellows program supports RWJF’s vision for building a Culture of Health by creating a strong and diverse leadership in health policy committed to advancing health and health equity. Initiated in 1973, this is a nonpartisan fellowship program located in Washington, D.C., for midcareer professionals interested in increasing their expertise in health policy.
The program is seeking outstanding midcareer health professionals, behavioral and social scientists, and others with an interest in health and the drivers of health who are skilled and committed; with expertise in health and health equity; and can offer an informed perspective on important and complex challenges facing policymakers. Fellows actively participate in the policy process in congressional or executive branch offices of their choosing and leverage this leadership experience to promote policies, practices, and systems changes that advance health and health equity. The National Academy of Medicine (NAM) conducts and administers the fellowship, with funding support from RWJF.
The fellowship requires a full-time commitment starting in September with a minimum 12-month residence in Washington, D.C., which prepares individuals to influence the future of health in the nation. Fellows will meet with national leaders well-versed in health, healthcare policy, health equity, social determinants of health, and structural racism; think tanks and interest groups; key executive branch officials; and members of Congress and their staffs. A concentrated orientation is designed to prepare the fellows for immediate success in federal legislative and executive branch positions.
Eligibility & Selection Criteria
Exceptional midcareer professionals from academic institutions, not-for-profit organizations, or government (including military; U.S. Dept. of Veterans Affairs; U.S. Public Health Service Commissioned Corps; and state offices who are not considered government officials under Section 4946 of the Internal Revenue Code).
• Applicants must have earned an advanced degree (masters or doctoral degree)
• In addition, applicants must have deep experience and subject matter expertise in a health-related discipline. Examples include but are not limited to medicine; nursing; public health; law, dentistry; economics and other social sciences (especially disciplines related to factors that influence population health, such as housing, transportation, nutrition, wealth, employment, education, and environmental and community conditions); health services and social work/behavioral health; and other health professions.
• Applicants whose official job description or responsibilities are primarily government relations or advocacy are not eligible.
• Individual candidates for receipt of award funds must be U.S. citizens, or permanent residents at the time of application. Because the RWJF Health Policy Fellows are placed in assignments in the federal government, changes in federal policy or law may necessitate that RWJF consider adjustments in eligibility and grant terms, as well as placements in the program.

Créé en 2020 dans le cadre d'une initiative conjointe du HCR et du Conseil international des agences bénévoles (ICVA) , le Fonds interinstitutions de sensibilisation et de communication communautaire en matière de PEAS fournit un soutien financier rapide et ciblé aux ONG pour développer et diffuser la sensibilisation contre l'exploitation et les abus sexuels (PSEA). et les supports de communication.
L'objectif du Fonds PEAS est de soutenir le travail essentiel que les organisations non gouvernementales (ONG) accomplissent chaque jour pour garantir que les personnes qu'elles servent soient pleinement conscientes que l'aide humanitaire n'est jamais conditionnée à une transaction ou à un échange de quelque nature que ce soit et pour prévenir les situations d’exploitation et d’abus sexuels (EAS). Le Fonds répond au besoin de matériel d'information, d'éducation et de communication efficace et opportun sur la PEAS, adapté aux contextes culturels locaux, aux réalités opérationnelles et aux groupes les plus à risque, tout en tenant également compte, entre autres, des considérations linguistiques. , alphabétisation, âge et capacité.
Le Fonds promeut le programme de localisation, en investissant dans les efforts menés par la communauté pour garantir que les survivants sachent comment et où signaler en toute sécurité les EAS. Elle repose sur la reconnaissance du fait que les capacités et l’expertise locales, y compris les titulaires de droits des communautés affectées elles-mêmes, sont essentielles pour renforcer efficacement la protection contre l’exploitation et les abus sexuels.
Depuis son lancement en 2020, le Fonds a suscité un énorme intérêt de la part des ONG, des organisations communautaires, des experts en protection et d'autres acteurs humanitaires impliqués dans les activités PEAS, avec plus de 3 500 candidatures reçues à ce jour. Chaque année, toutes les candidatures éligibles sont examinées et notées par un groupe de pilotage interinstitutions composé de représentants des agences des Nations Unies, des réseaux d'ONG et des ONG. À ce jour, 49 projets ont été soutenus par des subventions d'environ 20 000 USD chacun pour renforcer la PEAS grâce à une sensibilisation et un engagement accrus de la communauté et plus de 2 millions de titulaires de droits auraient bénéficié du Fonds.

A postdoctoral position for chemical synthesis of chemoselective probes is available in the research group run by Senior Lecturer Daniel Globisch. Globisch's research groupis international and conducts interdisciplinary research at a high level. The research focuses on developing new chemical biological methods to improve metabolomics-based research (Relevant literature: Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2021 , 60 , 23232, Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2018 , 57 , 13805, Chem. Sci. 2023 , 14 , 5291, Chem. Comm. 2023 , 59, 5843). This research area is at the interface between biology and chemistry with a combination of chemical synthesis, mass spectrometric analysis of metabolites in biological samples, chemical biology techniques and the investigation of microbiome metabolism. This project is in close collaboration with Johannes Hov's laboratory from Oslo University Hospital and the University of Oslo in Norway, which aims to investigate metabolomic changes in the liver disease primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC). PSC is strongly linked to intestinal inflammation, providing a strong basis for focusing specifically on potential microbial metabolites. Our research group is looking for a motivated and enthusiastic postdoctoral fellow with great drive and research interest to strengthen the ongoing research projects to develop new chemoselective methods.
Duties
The postdoctoral fellow will work on developing new methods for the analysis of metabolites using mass spectrometry and chemoselective metabolomics techniques. After development, methods will be used for the discovery and analysis of microbiome metabolites and biomarkers for liver disease. The postdoctoral work will include chemical synthesis, analysis and data management, precise documentation as well as collaboration with doctoral students, students and the laboratory of Johannes Hov. The postdoctoral position includes 100% research.
Qualification requirements
For employment, a doctoral degree and expertise in at least two of the following areas are required; (Bio)organic Chemistry, Chemical Biology and mass spectrometric analysis of biological samples. The PhD degree must have been received within three years at the time of employment. When calculating the framework period of three years, the starting point is the application deadline. If there are special reasons, such a degree may have been completed earlier. By special reasons is meant leave due to illness, parental leave, positions of trust within trade unions, etc. Great importance will be placed on personal qualities such as good cooperation skills, motivation and independence, as well as how the applicant, through his experience and competence, is judged to have the required abilities in order to develop the project. Very good knowledge of English, both spoken and written, is required. Applicants should also have very good collaboration skills. Personal suitability will be taken into particular consideration during the selection process.
