Postdoctoral Associate - Medical Humanities

The Medical Humanities Program at Rice University seeks to appoint one postdoctoral fellow in the humanities or interpretive social sciences, with preference for research and teaching that engages with racial and other forms of health equity and inequity. Projects taking a patient- or community-centered and intersectional approach are highly desired. The Program includes faculty from diverse fields in the humanities and social sciences, has strong partnerships with science and engineering disciplines, and collaborates with numerous institutions in the Texas Medical Center and the broader Houston community. The Fellow would teach a 1/1 course load and help to build the Program’s existing strength in racial and other forms of health (in)equity in the context of medical/health humanities as we expand our applied research and partnerships in this area.
