The OHSU Center for Developmental Health is hosting its third annual DOHaD Summer Course for graduate students, post-doctoral fellows and early-career faculty. The course will emphasize career development. Participants will be paired with a faculty mentor throughout the course, and daily workshops will focus on different career development skills. A poster session of participants’ research will be attended and judged by speakers and faculty. Participants will also be divided into groups to create an Experimental Design group presentation. We encourage you to register soon! Visit our website to view the initial schedule and stay updated on additional speakers and a more detailed agenda.

The workshop objectives are to: provide an overview of the American Cancer Society funded grants and research; provide 'insider tips' for a successful application process; understand how grants are evaluated; understand success rates in future funding; find online resources.

The 2024 Engagement Scholarship Consortium conference (October in Portland) is offering a fantastic pre-conference session called Emerging Engagement Scholars Workshop (EESW) for advanced doctoral students and early career faculty seeking to increase their knowledge and enhance their practice of community engaged scholarship. No one from OSU has submitted an application for EESW, and there are still about 6 spaces remaining. Please share this with your early career colleagues and/or PhD students if you think they have interest and would benefit from this opportunity. The submission portal will be left open for just a few more days. There is a $200 registration fee if accepted, but it is more than worth the price for the learning and networking experience.
