UAMS-affiliated faculty researchers in full time positions are invited to attend a free, virtual workshop led by nationally recognized grant-writing expert Peg AtKisson, Ph.D., Monday, May 24 – Thursday, May 27, 9 – 11 a.m. each day.
This UAMS Research Academy workshop is open to a limited number of attendees and will prioritize assistant and associate professors who are planning to submit a NIH R01 grant application for the February 2022 deadline. Since slots are limited, early sign-ups are encouraged.
Attendees may also nominate themselves for Research Academy Scholars positions. The six-to-eight selected scholars will receive continued grant-writing assistance from the AtKisson Training Group through the fall in preparation for their R01 submission. Attendance at the May event is highly encouraged for those interested in applying for the Research Academy Scholars program. More information about the Research Academy Scholars program will be released in early June.
The Research Academy and workshop are sponsored by UAMS’ Division of Research & Innovation, Translational Research Institute, and Winthrop P. Rockefeller Cancer Institute.
