For UMSI Faculty and Postdoctoral Fellows

Join us Tuesdays at 12:30pm for lively discussions, supportive feedback, and collegial connection. This is a relaxed, intellectually engaging space to share ideas, exchange perspectives, and delve into timely topics.

We will provide beverages and light snacks; feel free to bring your lunch to our sessions! RSVP via the weekly FFFT calendar invite [sent to faculty and postdocs only].  

Our October 27 session will focus on tailoring research proposals for foundation funders.  Katie Linder from Foundation Relations will share strategies for adapting an existing research idea to align with a foundation funding opportunity.

Please bring a one-page document to revise during the session, such as a National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Summary, a National Institutes of Health (NIH) Project Summary/Abstract or Specific Aims page, or an abstract from another recent submission.
