2024 Biomedical Training Program Directors’ Conference

Program directors on the TWD steering committee are planning the Biomedical Training Program Directors’ Conference in North Bethesda MD, July 8-10, 2024. This conference is intended for all program directors and aspiring program directors for NIGMS training grants. The topics of discussion overlap with the mission of NRMN, and the major themes are advancing mentoring (Drs. Janet Branchaw and Philip Clifford), inclusive excellence in recruiting and training, trainee wellness, and supportive lab environments. More information is available on the FASEB website at the links below (https://web.cvent.com/event/dc343624-9195-4916-96f8-234b8c15b6f0/summary?RefId=Hotel%20and%20Travel). Dr. Edgardo Falcon-Morales suggested that with your network, you might be able to help us advertise the conference, which will be supported by an NIGMS R13 grant. Would it be possible for you to spread the word widely in your network? Due to the typical delays with funding, we are advertising now with only 2 months to go.
