NIH Resilience Workshop and NCFDD Free 14-Day Writing Challenge

 

NIH Resilience Workshop

NIH provides a 5-part series on "Becoming a Resilient Scientist." It is offered in the fall and the summer for NIH trainees but is OPEN TO EVERYONE.

"The goal of this series is to provide you with the resilience tools needed to study and work in high-knowledge environments. The material will help you develop well-being, assertiveness, and feedback skills with the goal of improved relationships in research groups and beyond. The series is helpful for trainees and fellows at all levels. The series is also helpful for fellows who supervise others and wish to develop strong mentoring skills for the future."

Writing is one of the most critical aspects of academic success, yet it’s often deprioritized in the face of competing demands.
