Predoctoral training students in the Health Sciences may be accepted at any point in their schooling-following acceptance to the doctoral program, but before beginning the first year, or in the period immediately following their final year.

Behavioral Sciences Student Fellowship

The Behavioral Sciences Student Fellowship stimulates individuals to pursue careers in epilepsy in either research or practice settings. Appropriate fields include sociology, social work, psychology, anthropology, nursing, economics, vocational rehabilitation, counseling, political science, and others relevant to epilepsy research or practice.

Behavioral Sciences Post-Doctoral Fellowship

The Behavioral Sciences Post-Doctoral Fellowship develops excellent behavioral scientists to teach the appropriate psychosocial intervention techniques used in working with people with epilepsy, and ontributes to the body of behavioral research in epilepsy. Individuals who will have received their doctoral degrees in a field of the social sciences by the time the Fellowship commences, and desire additional postdoctoral research experience, may apply.


Targeted Research Initiative for Cognitive and Psychiatric Aspects of Epilepsy

The Targeted Research Initiative for Cognitive and Psychiatric Aspects of Epilepsy supports research leading to new insights into the diagnosis etiology, complications and treatment of persons with epilepsy and mood disorders including comorbid cognitive disorders; depression, anxiety, suicidality, other psychiatric symptoms; and psychogenic non-epileptic seizures.

Targeted Research Initiative for Morbidity and Mortality

The Targeted Research Initiative for Morbidity and Mortality supports research that generates initial data leading to more extensive projects that will generate knowledge that will ultimately improve the lives of persons with epilepsy. This initiative recognizes the need for research and new insights into these scientific areas.
