Research Success Skills Workshop Series

This series is offered every other year (*alternating with the Career Workshop Series).

Series may include:

  • Scientific Writing: Participants will hear from multiple speakers and learn how to improve their scientific writing skills, navigate the publication process, and successfully submit manuscripts.

  • Grant Writing and the Peer Review Process: Postdocs will gain insights from individuals on both sides of the grant writing process—both successful applicants and selection committee members. Topics include writing your first grant, exploring funding opportunities, navigating grant submission (budgeting, regulatory approvals, and administrative deadlines), and understanding the peer pre-review and review process.

  • Establishing and Managing a Lab: Experts, including PIs, directors of administration, and research support professionals, will discuss key aspects of setting-up a new lab and managing resources, setting goals, and managing time effectively, hiring and retaining skilled personnel, and ensuring post-award management and compliance.

Traditionally occurs in the Spring.
