The chosen candidate will be an emerging thought leader and a capable administrator with an established program of research in posttraumatic stress or related disorders, implementation science, and/or digital mental health.

The Deputy Director maintains an active program of scholarly research through obtaining grants and publishing peer-reviewed publications on implementation science, digital mental health, or other PTSD-related topics.
