Navigating the Research Enterprise

Navigating the Research Enterprise is a weekly seminar series for early-career faculty and postdoctoral fellows designed to provide the support needed to focus on developing the key skills young scientists require to progress beyond just doing good research.

Attendees will be introduced to issues such as finding sources for research funds, writing effective grants, and building a network of professional colleagues.

Upcoming Sessions

The fall 2023 seminar series schedule and registration details will be posted in summer 2023. This is a free professional development series.
