SUMMARY:NYAS: Inclusive Leadership in STEM
DESCRIPTION:The New York Academy of Sciences (NYAS) Inclusion in STEM Series delves into topics essential for actively cultivating a culture of inclusion in STEM. \nSession 4: Inclusive Leadership in STEM\nLeaders in STEM have the opportunity and duty to foster environments where diverse voices are heard\, valued\, and included in decision-making processes\, innovation\, and research. They recognize the value of different perspectives and experiences in driving innovation and problem-solving. \nThe lack of diversity in STEM is amplified for positions of power. Groups that are the most underrepresented and marginalized in STEM (Black\, Latino/a/X\, Indigenous and people of color) are the least represented in leadership positions. In this session\, we will learn about why leadership in STEM can be less diverse and how we can work together to ameliorate this issue. We will also explore strategies for being an inclusive leader that can be implemented at multiple stages of a person’s career. \nLearn more and register \nSign up for free a Membership to the New York Academy of Sciences\nTo support your professional and career development\, Cornell University will sponsor a complimentary 1-year Membership to the New York Academy of Sciences for any interested undergraduate and graduate student\, postdoc\, faculty and staff member.

SUMMARY:NYAS Webinar: Career Paths: Funding & Grantsmanship
DESCRIPTION:The ability to write successful research grants is a skill that needs to be worked on. As university budgets are shrinking and external funding sources are becoming more and more competitive\, graduate students and postdoctoral fellows and scientists should gain experience in this critical skill of successful grant writing early in their careers by applying for extramural funding\, especially individual fellowships. Grant writing is a skill that requires guidance and advice from those who have successfully applied for these type of grants. In fact\, grant writing can be more difficult than the actual research proposed. Join Science Alliance for “Transition to Research Independence: Funding and Grantsmanship” to learn the skills for concise and persuasive writing that is not only vital in academia\, but essential for any career path. During this evening seminar given by Dr. Jaime Rubin and follow up by a panel with recipients of these fellowships\, we will focus on best practices for effective grant writing\, specifically applied to individual pre-doctoral and post-doctoral fellowship applications in the biomedical fields. \nDuring this seminar you will learn about: \n\nTypes of funding agencies (government and private)\nTypes of private agencies (e.g. voluntary health organizations\, professional societies\, private foundations)\nReview criteria for fellowship applications\nKey components of fellowship applications\nStrategic approaches for competitive applications\nCommon but overlooked mistakes made by new investigators\nTips to increase your chances for success\n\nFollowing the seminar\, we will have a panel discussion with graduate students and postdocs who have successfully applied for various types of individual fellowships. \nRegister online for the webinar. \nSign up for free a Membership to the New York Academy of Sciences\nTo support your professional and career development\, Cornell University will sponsor a complimentary 1-year Membership to the New York Academy of Sciences for any interested undergraduate and graduate student\, postdoc\, faculty and staff member. For over 200 years\, the Academy has helped scientists\, engineers\, and innovators pursue successful careers.  To request a sponsored membership\, sign up at NYAS.ORG/CORNELL
