Greetings,

Some of you may be interested in applying for the following  
opportunity. I attended the 2005 Institute in June and found it to be  
amazing.

3rd Advanced Training Institute on Health Behavior Theory
Applications due by February 3, 2006

The National Cancer Institute and the Office of Behavioral and Social  
Sciences Research will sponsor an intensive, 7-day workshop for early  
career investigators June 18-25, 2006 at the Fluno Executive  
Conference Center in Madison, Wisconsin. The objectives of the  
institute are to allow 25 attendees to extend their understanding of  
the assumptions underlying major types of health behavior theories,  
to explore how theories are tested and improved, and to examine how  
to use theories appropriately in designing interventions. Lead  
instructors include researchers Neil Weinstein, Rutgers University,  
Alex Rothman, University of Minnesota, Susan Curry, University of  
Illinois at Chicago, and Barbara Curbow, University of Florida.

Applicants from all disciplines are welcome to apply. Eleven  
different disciplines were represented at the workshop held in 2005.  
An interest in cancer-related behaviors is desired, but not required.  
You must have received a doctoral degree by the beginning of the  
course and have completed at least one graduate level course in the  
behavioral sciences and one graduate level course in statistics.  
Participants must be U.S. citizens. There will be a $500 meeting cost  
to participate in the institute. Travel, meals, and lodging will be  
provided. More information, an application, and comments from  
previous participants are available at http:// 
cancercontrol.cancer.gov/workshop/.

Please forward this message on to anybody you think may be interested  
in this opportunity.
