Hi Mike,

Would you be willing to post the below to NBER researchers in the health economics program?

I think this is a very good and under-appreciated opportunity for experienced researchers to spend 13 months on research away from administrative responsibilities and students. Fellows can obtain access to NCHS data including variables that are not publicly available, such as geographic identifiers. It would also be a great opportunity for tenure-track faculty to take a year's unpaid leave and maybe extend their clock by a year. Finally, it is an opportunity for post doctoral or predoctoral students to be paid an adult wage while getting ready to go on the market. It would be great to have applications from NBER researchers or their colleagues or students.

Sandy
