2025 Becoming a Resilient Scientist series
The NIH OITE is pleased to offer both Resilient Scientist Series this fall. Trainees and fellows at all levels will have the opportunity to develop skills needed to thrive in research and healthcare careers. Faculty and staff will be supported in mentoring trainees in the biomedical, behavioral, and social sciences.
For students, trainees and fellows at all levels, we offer the BECOMING A RESILIENT SCIENTIST Series. There are five units in the series. Each includes a lecture followed by a facilitated small group discussion allowing trainees to share their experiences and learn from peers. Each lecture will run from 3:00 – 4:30 pm ET followed by 30 minutes of Q&A. To register and to learn more information, please visit our webpage.
