million Army soldiers.

The fellow will help the data analysts operationalize the strategic
goals into actionable lines of data analysis, refine research questions
based on the constraints of the PDE, harvest the required data, assist
in preparing the data for analysis, and ensure the analysts work within
established rules set by the Army Analytics Group (AAG) and the Army's
Chief Information Officer (CIO). The fellow will also serve as a
secondary data analyst for the team, and as a secondary technical
writer, preparing manuscripts for publication. The fellow will assist
the RFT Director in communicating the team's successes to the broader
Army community, and keep the RFT Director apprised of advances made by
the team.

The fellow will work with grant senior scientists including Dr. Martin
E.P. Seligman (PI), Dr. Rhonda Cornum (co-PI), Dr. Laura Kubzansky, Dr.
Christopher Peterson, Dr. Laurence Steinberg and Dr. Darwin Labarthe.

is required. Individuals with a Ph.D. in psychology, health and human
development, social epidemiology, or a related field are encouraged to
