Postdoctoral residents are not covered by Federal Employee retirement and are not eligible for federal life insurance benefits but are eligible for health insurance benefits.
Research opportunities: Combining science with practice can take on several forms depending upon the training goals of the resident. For residents that are more clinically focused, between 25-49% research time is provided to complete a scholarly project that is commensurate with the release time allotted. For residents who are more research or academically oriented, up to 49% research time is provided to complete research project(s) that are commensurate with the release time allotted. Residents typically take advantage of collaborating with several of our very productive clinical researchers on staff. Regardless of focus, all residents are expected to develop a strong working knowledge of the scientific literature pertaining to assessment and intervention and all clinical activities should be guided by this knowledge base.
