Most of our coordinators successfully transition to graduate school for clinical/health psychology or related fields.
The coordinator will assist with two large randomized controlled trials:
- Personalized Interventions and Outcomes: Navigating Eating Disorder Experiences and Recovery (PIONEER) Study. This study is working to build a new precision treatment for eating disorders and identify how individual treatment mechanisms relate to public health outcomes, individual disease burden, medical comorbidities, and social determinants of health.
- A Randomized Controlled Trial of Digital Written Exposure Therapy for Eating Disorders: Improving Access to Care. This project will test a digital, self-guided treatment for eating disorders. The goal is to establish it as an evidence-based, widely accessible intervention that can improve outcomes and reduce the overall burden of eating disorders.

The first study entails building a new precision treatment for eating disorders, and identifying how individual treatment mechanisms relate to public health outcomes, individual disease burden, medical comorbidities, and social determinants of health. The second study is focused on implementation of a digital exposure intervention for eating disorders. This position will involve learning how to carry out personalized treatment trials, digital mental health clinical trials, working with clinical participants with eating disorders, supervising implementation and analysis of studies, assisting Dr. Levinson with training and supervising therapists to complete assessments and deliver the treatment protocol, conducting diagnostic assessments, working on grant proposals and publications, mentoring study coordinators and graduate and undergraduate students, assisting with data preparation and analysis, and working with a large interdisciplinary team at UofL.

This position is renewable for up to three years and preference will be given to a post-doc who can commit to at least two years. Minimum experience is a doctorate in psychology, engineering, computer science, or a related field. This post-doctoral fellowship will help propel the fellow into a tenure-track faculty position.
