The NIH Common Fund’s Stimulating Peripheral Activity to Relieve Conditions (SPARC) program supports a broad range of research projects, ranging from identification of neural targets to device development and clinical discovery—all in support of SPARC’s goal of advancing bioelectronic medicine through precise control of the autonomic nervous system. In celebration of SPARC’s efforts to bridge the divide between anatomists/physiologists, device developers and computational modelers to advance bioelectronic medicine, we want to ignite your imagination and creativity! Apply to the SPARC Art contest by sending in the most striking original image or video from your research and have a chance to win the opportunity to be featured in the International Society for Autonomic Neuroscience (ISAN) journal Autonomic Neuroscience: Basic & Clinical(link is external) and in our monthly SPARC Plug!
This virtual workshop will discuss and propose imaging instrumentation and methods for directly imaging the distribution of unsealed-source therapeutic agents (with particular focus on alpha-emitters) to estimate the radiation dose delivered in real time to the targeted cancer and surrounding normal tissue.
The Maximizing Opportunities for Scientific and Academic Independent Careers (MOSAIC) program is designed to facilitate the transition of talented postdoctoral researchers from diverse backgrounds, for example individuals from groups underrepresented in the biomedical research workforce at the faculty level, into independent faculty careers in research-intensive institutions. The program has two components: an institutionally-focused research education cooperative agreement (UE5) and postdoctoral career transition award (K99/R00) to enhance diversity. For more about the MOSAIC Program, including answers to Frequently Asked Questions, please visit the website. During this webinar, you will learn about the MOSAIC program and the process for writing a UE5 or K99/R00 application.
Apply to join Chain Reaction Innovation’s (CRI) cohort 5! The two-year entrepreneurial program at Argonne National Laboratory is currently accepting applications for innovators who would like to bring their early stage tech to market. CRI offers financial and technical support to evolve early-stage R&D innovation into a viable energy or manufacturing business. Each innovator partners with an Argonne scientist who serves as the Principal Investigator, supporting the innovator’s R & D within the laboratory. Learn more about the benefits here. Pre-Apply to join Cohort 5, learn more at the informational webinars. Register here. Wednesday, August 26 at 2pm Tuesday, September 22 at 11:30am Thursday, October 8 at 3pm Thursday, October 22 at 10am (all central time)

OHSU is joining forces with MIT Hacking Medicine and academic and industry partners from across the region to bring you the inaugural OHSU Invent-a-thon, October 23 – 25, 2020. Join fellow creative problem solvers and thought leaders as we work to build innovative medtech and digital health/health IT solutions to pressing challenges in 1) surgical care, 2) early disease diagnosis, 3) rural and low resource setting healthcare, and 4) management of chronic conditions. If you are healthcare professional, engineer, maker, researcher, entrepreneur, business expert, designer, developer, student, or patient who is interested in advancing healthcare then this is the weekend for you. You will have a chance to hear from inspiring keynotes, join an interdisciplinary team of fellow innovation enthusiasts, brainstorm and build a prototype, receive coaching from mentors, and pitch a solution to investor judges to compete for up to $40,000 in team prizes.
