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

SUMMARY:NCFDD Webinar: Equitable\, Accessible\, and Inclusive Teaching Practices
DESCRIPTION:This session will provide strategies and supports to ensure teaching is equitable\, accessible\, and inclusive for ALL students\, including (but not limited to) multilingual learners\, students with disabilities\, and first-generation students. The session will begin by providing the objectives and principles of Universal Design for Learning (UDL)\, how UDL contributes to anti-racist and anti-ableist practices\, and end with examples of equitable\, accessible\, and inclusive course delivery methods and assignments. \nFacilitator Bio\nSaili S. Kulkarni\, Ph.D. is an Associate Professor of Special Education at San José State University (SJSU). Dr. Kulkarni’s research seeks to understand the intersections of disability and race in teacher education using a framework of disability studies critical race theory (DisCrit). Her recent work portrays the experiences and challenges faced by teachers of color including special education teachers of color (SETOC) and/or teachers of color working with young children of color with disabilities. She is the recipient of a Spencer Foundation Racial Equity Grant (2021-2023) to study exclusionary discipline practices impacting young children of color with disabilities in preschool and early elementary grades. She is also the inaugural BIPOC Educator Fellow for the National Center for Research in Educator Diversity (NCRED). Dr. Kulkarni received early tenure and promotion from SJSU in 2021 with the support of the NCFDD Summer Bootcamp\, which she participated in\, back in Summer 2020. \n\nFree Individual Memberships for the National Center for Faculty Development & Diversity (NCFDD)\nAvailable to all Cornell students\, postdocs\, faculty\, and staff \nCornell is an institutional member of the National Center for Faculty Development & Diversity (NCFDD)\, a nationally recognized\, independent organization providing online career development and mentoring resources.

SUMMARY:2022 Summer Success Symposium
DESCRIPTION:The Summer Success Symposium is a professional and community development event for new and continuing doctoral students from across all graduate fields. The symposium has a particular focus on bringing together recipients of graduate fellowships in support of diversity as well as all other doctoral students from backgrounds historically excluded from and underrepresented in the academy. This includes\, but is not limited to students who identify as Black\, Indigenous\, Hispanic/Latina/o/x\, and/or Southeast Asian\, and/or those that identify as first-generation college (FGC) students\, LGBTQQ+ identified students\, veterans\, students with disabilities\, women in STEM\, students with DACA status\, and others. Master’s degree students interested in pursuing doctoral studies are also welcome to this event. \nThrough this symposium\, participants have the opportunity to form connections and establish community. This symposium also provides participants with the opportunity to engage with successful alumni\, faculty\, and professionals with shared experiences and identities. Summer Success Symposium keynote and workshop content focus on providing participants with access to knowledge and insights that will help them navigate their successful transition into and progression through their graduate studies. \nRegistration Required \nSymposium Agenda \n 10:00 – 10:15 am ET \nCheck-In \n10:15 am – 10:30 am ET \nWelcoming Remarks \nSpeaker: Sara Xayarath Hernández\, Associate Dean for Inclusion and Student Engagement\, Graduate School \n10:30 am – 12:00 pm ET \nOpening Plenary Session: Writing for Healing and Joy – Resisting the Traumatic Experience of the Academic Writing Process \nIn this session\, you will learn about embedding healing\, joy\, and wellness into the academic writing process. Through Dr. Villarreal’s experience as a mami-scholar dealing with Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) and depression in the middle of a global pandemic\, she developed coping skills influenced by a combination of Chicana feminist teachings\, occupational therapy\, and consejos from her community. Determined to not allow the dissertation process to be yet another traumatic experience in academia for her\, she instead cultivated one that brought her healing and joy. In this session\, Dr. Villarreal will share her experience and give guidance on how graduate students can cultivate wellness\, joy\, and healing along their research and writing journeys. \nSpeaker: Cynthia Villarreal\, Assistant Professor\, Northern Arizona University \n12:00 – 12:30 pm ET \nLunch \n12:30 – 2:00 pm ET \nAlumni Keynote Session: Defining and Progressing Toward Your North Star \nGraduate school can feel confusing. The process is defined\, but vague. It’s structured\, but also very individualized. When navigating this process\, it can become difficult at times to maintain a sense of agency. Because the constant in all of this is you\, it’s critical that you find ways to ground yourself so you don’t lose sight of what you want from this journey. In this session\, we discuss how to define your purpose and develop well-aligned goals. We also discuss successful strategies for sustaining your passion through graduation and beyond. \nSpeaker: Elizabeth Wayne\, M.S. ’13\, Ph.D. ’16 Biomedical Engineering\, Assistant Professor\, Biomedical Engineering and Chemical Engineering \n2:15 – 3:30 pm ET \nMastering Your Transition Into & Progression Through Graduate School  \nDuring this panel discussion with current doctoral students from across the disciplines\, panelists will candidly discuss their experiences and strategies for making a successful transition into graduate school. They will also share insights on their experiences navigating their ongoing progression through their graduate studies\, and their exploration and preparation for various postgraduate career pathways. \nEvent Sponsors \nGraduate School Office of Inclusion & Student Engagement\, Diversity Programs in Engineering\, Future Faculty and Academic Careers\, and the Cornell Chapter of the Bouchet Graduate Honor Society \nThis event is also supported by the National Science Foundation under Grant No.1647094 (AGEP CIRTL) and a subcontract under Grant No. 1231286 (Cornell AGEP). Any opinions\, findings\, and conclusions or recommendations expressed in this material are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the views of the National Science Foundation. \nThis program was modeled in part after PROMISE: Maryland’s AGEP Summer Success Institute.
