These offerings provide a basic, beginning foundation to support you in your research at 精品SM在线影片. You are committing to attend these seven sessions, which will be virtual for the 2024-25 Cohort. In addition to these core offerings, we will provide opportunities for casual in-person networking events you may attend at your discretion.
September: PI Academy Kickoff: This event, required for the new PI Academy cohort, will welcome participants and provide an opportunity to network and learn about various resources and components of the PI Academy and the Research & Innovation Office. Previous participants will be in attendance to offer their insights into the program and its benefits.
October: Time Management: This presentation condensed the ideas of many published time management experts into an overall approach for managing multiple projects, tasks, responsibilities, philosophies, practical how-tos, strategies for managing the growing pile of emails in your inbox, along with hands-on time management activities.
November: Elements of a Strong One Page Project Summary: A project summary (鈥渙ne pager鈥�) has multiple uses. Participants will first be introduced to the key components of a clear and persuasive one page project summary. We will then break into groups to explore field/area (sciences, arts, humanities) specific approaches for one-page project summaries.
December: Avenues to External Funding: Learn how to use freely available databases of external funding opportunities for fellowships and grants. Including set up of funding alerts specific to your scholarly research or creative work through SPIN. Learn to use Dimensions to identify potential funding opportunities using a description of a current proposal idea.
February: Building and Sustaining Transdisciplinary Research Relationships: We will present best practices for building and sustaining transdisciplinary research relationships in this webinar. Transdisciplinary research approaches are being applied to today鈥檚 complex scientific, medical, and societal problems. Diverse forms of disciplinary and experiential knowledge are required to understand these challenges, develop workable solutions, and increasingly garner external support for your projects.
March: Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion in Research: Racial disparities and implicit biases exist within institutions of higher education, including within researchers themselves. This session will discuss best practices for ensuring Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion in research, your labs, and the individual level. By considering differing views, ideas and approaches, equitable and inclusive practices help promote research excellence that better addresses the needs of a diverse population.
May: Strategic Career Planning: RIO's Director of Strategic Projects Emily CoBabe-Ammann will guide PI Academy participants through a strategic career planning exercise to help develop your individual research plan. This workshop will lay the foundation for individual career strategy sessions with Emily offered in the summer after the session.
