ICI

Postdoctoral Fellowship Opportunity with the ICI's Advanced Rehabilitation Research Training Program (ARRT) 

We are seeking two postdoctoral fellows for the ICI's Advanced Rehabilitation Research Training Program, launching in Spring 2026.

There is a critical need for better representation and capacity in the intellectual and developmental disability (IDD) research workforce and field. The ARRT program offers advanced, multidisciplinary training in IDD employment research.

The ARRT is a partnership between the ICI, the School for Global Inclusion and Social Development, and the National Association of State Directors of Developmental Disabilities Services.

Due to funding constraints, we will not be offering the Crocker and Gopen Fellowships for the upcoming year.
