This $200,000 Project Grant award from the National Institute on Disability, Independent Living, and Rehabilitation Research (CFDA 93.433) will support a 5-year program at New York University (NYU) School of Medicine to train six postdoctoral psychologists with prior clinical rehabilitation experience. The program aims to expand the fellows' knowledge of rehabilitation research methodologies, including participatory action research, by working with multidisciplinary teams on independent and collaborative traumatic brain injury research projects. Expected outcomes include the development of six highly qualified TBI rehabilitation researchers who will complete research projects, present findings, publish in peer-reviewed journals, and submit their own grant applications by the end of the 2-year fellowship. The program will also benefit mentors, the broader disability research community, and individuals living with TBI who will have direct engagement with the trained clinical researchers.
